THE STOOGES "FUN HOUSE" ORIG 1970 LP ELEKTRA GATEFOLD

THE STOOGES
"FUNHOUSE" LP
ELEKTRA EKS-74071
GATEFOLD
1970

EARLY PRESSING, BUTTERFLY LABEL (1971 - 1974). NICE COPY. LIGHTLY PLAYED VG+ (CONSERVATIVE, CORRECT!~) ORIGINAL ELEKTRA INNER.

grades and grading explanation below:  

VINYL:  VG+ (very light, minimal, superficial sleeve-wear. all very light: more shadows than hairlines. plays clean, clear, and loud. i hate to have to say this, but since this grade is so commonly misused, i must: this is not a trashed record. it is solid,  with light wear. no scratches, heavy scuffing, needle-drags . . . . there is nothing you can feel. solid record. 'nuff said.)
COVER:  VG (some edge, corner, and spine scuffing. 6-inch split bottom right corner - see photo. otherwise solid. light ring-wear back cover. no writing, stains.)

VINYL GRADE SCALE:
M  like new. not a mark. gleaming. unplayed
NM slightly under M. shadowing perhaps. no marks. 
EX  clean, glossy. faintest scuff or faint wisp.
VG++ glossy, clean, with light indications of use. still plays well. nice record
VG+  slightly more wear. light hairline, light scuffing. still nice (not junk!)
VG  light scratches and/or scuff more pronounced. will still play fairly well with obvious light surface noise. clean. glossy.
VG- fairly worn copy. still playable. some gloss. (not junk!)

COVER/SLEEVE/INSERT GRADING:

I TRY TO MENTION EVERY DEFECT, AND GRADE COVERS ON AN INTUITIVE LEVEL, UTILIZING MULTIPLE PICTURES AND COMPLETE DESCRIPTIONS.

money back guarantee if not satisfied! ALWAYS! ~

IMPORTANT ** I CLEAN AND GRADE EVERY RECORD UNDER A 100W DESK LAMP BULB, WITH AN ADDITIONAL OVERHEAD FLUORESCENT. I GRADE CONSERVATIVELY AND GENERALLY DON'T BOTHER WITH ANYTHING THAT'S NOT CLOSE TO "MINTY" TO BEGIN WITH.  I DON'T LIST RECORDS WITH ANYTHING MORE THAN EXTREMELY SUPERFICIAL SLEEVE-WEAR (unless specifically noted and described in detail). I SHIP IN CUSTOM LP MAILERS, REINFORCED WITH CARDBOARD INNERS AND MULTIPLE SHEETS OF SMALL-BUBBLE WRAP. I REMOVE EVERY RECORD FROM THE OUTER SLEEVE. AND I REMOVE EVERY RECORD FROM ANY INNER SLEEVE THAT IS "PERIOD" OR "CUSTOM" AND INSERT THE LP IN A GENERIC SLEEVE FOR SHIPPING. THANKS ***

*** one more important thing. under eBay's new 5 star grading system, anything under a "5" is generally considered poor by their internal ratings system, and negatively impacts many aspects of a seller's ability to continue to provide professional, affordable services. So please, if you are happy with our transaction, please leave all "5"s. And remember, I mail records within a day of receiving payment, although Media Mail can take up to 2 weeks (although it's usually much quicker). So if it seems like a record took a little while to get  there, please check the post-mark and you will find I mailed it immediately upon receipt of payment. (And the $4.00 I charge for 1-50 records doesn't even cover the cost of postage and custom LP packing supplies!!)

Thanks! Scott
