SXL 6550 Audiophile Salvatore Supreme LP Recording List 'Divinity' Varese Mehta

Description

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

One of only 8 other classical records from major record labels judged to be on the highest level of the multi level "Supreme LP Recordings List" as compiled and reviewed by Arthur Salvatore.  Do a search for Salvatore Supreme records, and you should find his dedicated list, this one is classified as "divinity" for Audiophiles, and there are NO OTHER SXL Pressings in that Divinity list !!, a few in the lower level Recommended and basic list, but supposedly for audio reproduction, sound stage, immediateness, presence, etc etc THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST ORIGINAL SXL YOU WILL SUPPOSEDLY HEAR, Arthur rates the ever popular SXL 6355 Espanola suite as the close second level "Demi God" and Lanchberry La Fille SXL 2313 as the lower level again down in the Basic List. so this is apparantly more highly regarded than those for reproduction quality.

I shall make no comment about the enjoyment level of the style of music........................basically it's not my cup of tea !!!

SOUND SAMPLE GUIDE, THE OPENING OF EACH SIDE A FOR Three MINUTES, AND SIDE B FOR 3 MINUTES. 

THE EDGE OF EACH SIDE is sampled due to being where most needle drop or damage from scratches is most likely,  IF YOU INTEND TO BID, MAKE SURE YOU TAKE THE SIX and a half MINUTES TO LISTEN TO ALL OF THE SAMPLE TO SATISFY YOURSELF IF THE LIGHT STATIC ON EACH SIDES OPENING IS SATISFACTORY TO YOUR REQUIREMENTS. THERE IS SOME SMALL SCUFFS ON SIDE 1, SEE PHOTO 6 IN CLOSE UP, IT IS DEFINITELY NON SOUNDING.

SOUND SAMPLE IS LOW RESOLUTION AND HAS A TREBLE BIAS, SO SOME CRACKLE IS MORE PROMINANT THAN PLAYED ON GOOD SYSTEM. NO THIS 192KBPS SAMPLE IS NOT GONNA DISPLAY SUPREME(NESS) in it's Divinity !!!!!!

Some light tics near opening edge, hence the sample of those areas.  Very little play use of this LP by the look of it, cover has some edge creases from flexing without the record inside.

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!!!!

CANADA AND SOUTH AMERICA

WILL BE GBP13.35,  THE USA INVOICE SHOWS EXTRA 6GBP SECURITY CHARGE RELEVANT ONLY TO USA AND TERITORIES

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.

German buyers, THERE WON'T BE ANY, due to high levels of attempted fraud claiming NON delivery of signed for items, all paypal claims (yes multiple,,,from different buyers, )  so far I proved they were delivered, but I only don't send to one country in the world for Audiophile now , I do send to Brazil, Italy USSR but Germany ???  No WAY !!! don't even ask !!!  Not a big tick for high intelligence in fraud attempted from this seller ....

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!!!!!

Postage calculator NOT WORKING ACCURATELY when I live in Australia....... Item will be mailed from Australia, see list of world zones just below for air mail rate from Australia, do not pay automated ebay invoice (IF ONE ARRIVES) until receiving adjusted postage invoice.

POST COST FOR WORLD ZONES  is AS PER THE TABLE BELOW Quote is for Australia post cost rate, plus a brand new box and packing (custom Manufactured = $2)

NOTE Item is located in Australia, and yes!!! aren't post rates expensive from Australia !!!!  If you win this item, then actual post costs are as below in Australian dollars, PLEASE IGNORE FIGURES DISPLAYED IN POSTAGE TAB BY EBAY, THEY FAIL TO RECOGNIZE ITEM WILL BE POSTED TO YOU FROM AUSTRALIA !!!

Every 250 gm (extra auction wins) added to this win or others only adds a further $8.75 to the UK/Euro zone, only $6.75AUD to USA etc, and just $5.50 for Asian zone, so extra LP's are cost effective

International Buyers – Please Note:
• • 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.
