SXL 2266 UK WBG ED1 LISTEN ! Rossini Overtures Gamba LSO COVER VG+/ LP VG++++

Description

SOUND SAMPLE AUTO STARTED WHEN YOU OPENED THE PAGE, TURN UP THE VOLUME and have a READ .   

Summary condition

Cover VG+ no seam splits, flipback cover with light rubbing and very minimal front or rear ringwear, more just an embossing of the lp shape in the card. front bottom right corner has impact damage, see photo 1 0r 3. Rear card bottom opening corner has small 3cm tear from same corner impact (See photo 4)

Lp VG++++.  Some static crackle, only obvious in the really quiet passages, 

Looks very clean, not even many spiderline scuffs in sunlight, however does have a couple of short scuffs visible in normal room light, worst one is in intro of William Tell Overture during quiet cello and sting passage, I detected just a few VERY quiet pips at the corresponding scuff point, its one of those that I hesitate to call a scratch as you would hardly notice the few quiet tics if not aware of the 'scuff' location 

Only a few spindle trails on the label, nevertheless there is some static light crackle more in opening quiet passages, that is why the sound sample is of the opening 2 minutes of both sides. maybe a really good professional clean would sort out the opening crackle, as I have not done anything other than a dust wipe, because it looked so clean.

UK DECCA pressing. Released  1961

PLAYLIST

Rossini's most popular Orchestral Overtures to his well known Operas.  Pierino Gamba conducts the London Symphony Orchestra. playing

The Thieving Magpie  (First part of sound sample)

The Silken Ladder

The Barber of Seville

Semiramide  (second part of sound sample)

William Tell

SOUND SAMPLE GUIDE First 2 minutes 20 seconds is of opening side 1, the opening minute has a few faint crackles, but the rest of the record plays much cleaner

 side TWO STARTS at 2 minutes 40 seconds,  AND PLAYS UNTIL SAMPLE COMPLETION WHICH IS THE REMAINDER OF THE 5 MINUTE 27 second SAMPLE IN TOTAL.

BE aware the sound sample talked about IS A LOW SAMPLE RATE AND accentuates treble (Hence more static crackle that you DON'T hear through your Hi Fi) and is low quality, but you get the idea. 

Sound sample taken without washing, just a light dusting.

ITEMS are located in AUSTRALIA, see further down for Australia Post Rates to your destination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

USA buyers, due to recently enforced air security measures, please note if this is delivered to USA (or Territories) there is now a 9AUD (6GBP) handling surcharge PLUS the normal post charge (x ray search) so that is why postage to USA destinations is so expensive in the postage Tab!!!!

Australian buyers can pay in AUD,

UK Buyers BE AWARE !! Post limit of 4GBP as stipulated by ebay, (even for overseas sellers) GOOD NEWS!! unlike other sellers I will only charge the 4GBP to Post it to you BUT BAD NEWS..... It will arrive via the same method as if it was posted in UK, by SURFACE MAIL, and as that involves a slow ship via China and other indirect world zones it may take upto 3 MONTHS  to get to you. There is an option on your UK invoice for Economy mail, which will be by Air Mail and therefore the regular 10-15 days, SO UNLESS you want to get it VERY SLOWLY.... I would strongly recommend paying the optional invoice amount of GBP15.90

IN CASE AN OVERSEAS BUYER PAYS THE INVOICE BEFORE I GET TO ADJUST IT IN LINE WITH THE CHART BELOW, A REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDS OR A REFUND IF OVERPAID WILL SOON FOLLOW!!!!!

• • Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility.

     

  • Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.

NO..... I will not reduce the stated value of the LP on any customs declarations, Australia post bases its insurance on the declared value, so if I understate it I am at risk of losing its value should it go missing, You as a buyer are covered by paypal protection, so bid accordingly.  

NO .... Paypal does not cover me if its not insured, I know I have looked into the situation EXTENSIVELY!!

RULES FOR BIDDING

DOES ANYBODY READ THIS?? I THINK NOT BASED ON RECENT BIDDING ACTIVITY ON MY ITEMS!! PLEASE READ...

If you have hidden feedback, or

less than 98% positive, or

less than 50 recent visible positives, (that's NEW EBAY registrations with little activity yet, that have proven your good buying habits)  THEN -

I would appreciate email contact first to establish your credentials.  Credentials mean that I need to know you will be paying with VERIFIED PAYPAL account, and I of course will only be mailing to that verified address. DON'T EXPECT TO GET MY PERMISSION IN THE LAST 2 HOURS OF BIDDING, DO IT BEFOREHAND. (Buyers who have had trouble free transactions with me already qualify of course, regardless of the feedback status)

Winning bids unpaid after 7 days will be reported as non paying bidder and item opened to second chance offer.

HAPPY BIDDING, QUESTIONS WELCOME

Check for Australia post cost and access to your country by emailing me or go to their web address and check it out  http://www1.auspost.com.au/pac/

Combined postage with other items welcome Please ask.

Combined purchases over $100AUD (60GBP) recieve FREE packing (it pays to Bulk Buy!!!)

IF insurance is required on any Missionselit purchases please be aware I CAN ONLY INSURE BASED ON THE CUSTOMS DECLARATION STATED VALUE, PLEASE BE AWARE SHOULD YOU BE LIABLE FOR ANY CUSTOMS ON A SECOND HAND LP IN YOUR COUNTRY, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PAYMENT (UK, Sth Korea, Germanyand possibly Malaysia has this problem I believe). The need for me to cover  insurance for any loss in the postal service means  I will  not under any circumstances  understate the customs declaration value, for the above reasons.
