THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREEN HARVEST ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE . A STUNNING MINT DISC IN EVERY WAY
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT WHAT LITTLE PLAY THE RECORD HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A PERFECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE ODD SPLIT SECOND OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT!!!
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES. ALL OF THE EASILY RUBBED COLOURS ARE THERE AND UNRUBBED
THERE ARE JUST TWO MINUSCULE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP AND NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THERE IS A TINY DING TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER TIP
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY MINT WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR RUNNING FULLY FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED, APART FROM ONE WHITE PIN PRICK SHOWING ON THE RIGHT ONE.. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS SIMILAR BUT DOES HAVE SOME VERY LIGHT SHELF RUB TO THE RIGHT CORNER WHERE THE DING HAS OCCURRED.
THE SPINE IS IMMACULATE. TOTALLY FLAT AND 100% UNSQUASHED. THE COLOUR IS ALL THERE AND FULLY RUNS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM UNBLEMISHED. THE YELLOW TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY NICKS AT THE VERY BOTTOM WHERE THE DING IN THE CORNER HAS AFFECTED IT MARGINALLY
THE REAR SURFACE IS IDENTICAL TO THE FRONT. IN ABSOLUTELY TOP CONDITION
THE PICTURE CARD INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM HAVING THE ROUNDED CORNERS AND THE LARGE THUMB NOTCH ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO WRINKLES AND NO MARKS TO THE IMMACULATE SURFACE
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT !!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
