Description
My listings will include rare and not so rare but as vinyl is in such demand these days I'll be covering the whole spectrum as I firmly believe there is a market for everything. All records have been played through at least once (in order to give a true grading) on my REGA P1 turntable (which sounds superb!) , which I bought from my Leeds stockist, Audio Republic, details of which will be mailed out with the vinyl. I've got a huge stock of records at the moment so if there is anything you are after drop me an email or I can be seen on the Record Fair circuit!...next one is at NORTHALLERTON MARKET SQUARE on SATURDAY 5th SEPTEMBER, followed by ILKLEY KINGS HALL on SUNDAY 6th SEPTEMBER and BINGLEY RAMADA JARVIS BANKFIELD HOTEL on SUNDAY 20th SEPTEMBER !! .if you love vinyl and don't attend fairs, shame on you!!!! The fairs currently on offer are superb and are far more pleasurable experience than sitting at home, trawling the internet for those shabby so called mint records. Rest assured, MINT means MINT (no marks/no scratches/no spindle marks/faultless vinyl/faultless sleeve)....and I'm not afraid to use the term VERY GOOD which, incidentally, does not mean trashed !!!!....none of this "played once" misleading nonsense, the number of spindle marks on the label has no bearing on number of plays !!!!! None of this VERY VERY VERY NEAR MINT description.....it's EXCELLENT++++ !!!!! I'll be continually listing some great stuff so keep an eye out. AND REMEMBER, MOST IMPORTANTLY, VINYL IS FOR PLAYING !!!!!!

CONDITION
SLEEVE
The classic Ernest J Day front laminated flipback sleeve is in SUPERB condition !!! A crisp sleeve with only a few small laminate creases, a couple of tiny barely noticeable indentations, a very very slight ring impression on the front face, some damage to the lower flipback (which has become detached near the spine edge and torn down to the bottom edge / and at the opening edge side has become detached and only torn very slightly...possibly fixable with a bit of time and patience!!)...and that's about it !!!!! There is no edgewear, no ring wear, no grubbiness, no writing, no dings/dents, no seam splits, no stickers , no wear to the opening edge and no wear to a perfect spine !! The unlaminated rear sleeve is superb (apart from the aforementioned damage to the lower flipback) !!!! FIND A BETTER ONE !!! The sleeve grades VERY GOOD++++ (downgraded from EXCELLENT++ due to the flipback damage!)
INNER SLEEVE
The correct EMITEX polylined inner sleeve grades VERY GOOD
VINYL
The record has a couple of ultra light totally non sounding marks/scratches and only quite a few of the lightest sleeve removal marks/scuffs when viewed at an angle under a bright light !!! The record plays superb (play grade EXCELLENT+++) with little or no background noise (even between tracks!!!)...and no hiss/ no distortion/ no skips/ no jumps / no pops and sounds awesome.....make's a refreshing change listening to a Beatles LP without the crackles and pops !!! FIND A BETTER ONE !! The vinyl grades VERY GOOD++++
LABELS
The labels with the K T Tax Code grade EXCELLENT+++ with quite a few (but not too many!!) visible spindle marks on each side !!!!
STILL NOT SURE, THEN CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE!
Please bid with confidence as my descriptions are accurate and honest (check my feedback)....when grading/describing, as I vinyl addict, I always think "what would I want to know?"!. In order to achieve this I describe in the factual detail required for buyers to make there own decisions.....I won't try and mislead, and won't overlook flaws in order to hike up the price ! As you can see I usually use two pics at the most.....if ,however, you do require more close ups please do not hesitate to contact me and this can be arranged through email.

On 04-Jun-09 at 20:42:44 BST, seller added the following information:
I've had a few queries about the sleeve on this one.....the damage to the lower flipback is entirely isolated to the flipback which has split at two points (it could be easily glued and the splits would be barely noticeable)....all the flipback is still there.....really doesn't detract from a fine example of the sleeve (which is graded Very Good++++). The rear face is almost perfectly white with little or no discolouration, no stains, no marks, no writing.
