Description of present auction

Sahib SHIHAB "Seeds" original VOGUE 1969 German pressing LDVS17165 Stereo. This LP has been recorded in Cologne, Germany. The vynil is visually very clean with almost no marks to mention, the audio is a bit underneath but deep and loud. Still a rare sought after record in satifying conditions

Side1 : Ex (8/10 ),  Few isolated tics here and there, otherwise LP in great shape. My initial signature on right side of label in pencil paper (removable).

Side2 : VG+ (7/10), Few isolated tics here and there, 10 tics at the end of track2 cause by a tiny 1 mm feelable mark. Some light sporadic background noise on track 3-4.

Cover : VG+/Ex (7-8/10), Fully laminated (inside/outside) Gatefold cover in very nice condition. The only flaw that prevent to be in full excellent condition is outside lamination peeling on the edges. No peeling on spine where tittle is perfectly readable. Original vogue inner sleeve (see photos)

My grading scale is simple with letters and figures to improve understanding. I grade each side of the record separately (first side then second side) and in the end the cover. I precise the grading with specific informations for each side and cover.

I do not grade inner sleeve (possible tearing or tape on it). If you’re interested in inner sleeve condition, feel free to ask…

The scale of grading is : VG-(5/10)  VG(6/10)  VG+(7/10)  EX(8/10)  EX+(9/10)

To be more precise

EX+ : a superb record with extremely few light flaws if any, maximum of 10 seconds of repetitive tics per side or less.

EX : a very nice records with few marks, maximum of 30 seconds of repetitive tics per side or less.

VG+ : still a nice record but with a bit more marks with a few lightly feelable, maximum of 1mn30 seconds of repetitive tics per side or less.

VG   : a record with some marks feelable or not, no skips still enjoyable with portions of background tics, maximum of 2 to 3 mn of repetitive tics per side.

VG- : a very used record, not trashed but with numerous feelable marks, still no skips but expect maximum of 5 mn of repetitive tics per side or a bit less.

Very strict regarding collectors should only bid on EX and EX+ records. I didn't have a record cleaning machine and all records could benefit an ultrasonic cleaning. To improve sound, records should also be listened to with a stylus in good shape (less than a year).

Packaging

I do my best to protect records and to avoid damages during shipping as I’m a long time collector by myself. I send LP(s) in inner sleeve, out of cover to prevent splitting during the shipping and with two strong carboard sleeves each side (one up /one down).  I use strong cardboard boxes. 

I’m not responsible in any way, for damages during shipping.
