THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE APPLE LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION. THE DARK GREEN SIDE IS VERY RICH AND VIBRANT, AND HAS LOST NONE OF THE COLOUR AT ALL. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS BOLD AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE WHITE SIDE IS VERY WHITE AND HAS NO MARKS OR STAINS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE. THE SPINDLE HOLE IS UNWORN, THERE ARE JUST 2-3 VERY VERY SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE HOLE SHOWING THAT THIS LP HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND IS REALLY CLEAN. IN DAYLIGHT THE DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS . A STUNNING EXAMPLE. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE SOME WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF ULTRA FINE HANDLING LINES VISIBLE
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 AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I KNOW THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, WITHOUT ANY TRACE OF DISTORTION CAUSED THROUGH GROOVE WEAR. A STUNNING STEREO REPRODUCTION WITH NOTES BEING HEARD CRISPLY AND CLEANLY.
THERE IS NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLING AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE EITHER AT ANY POINT THROUGH THE PLAYTHROUGH
THIS COPY IS AS GOOD AS THE VERY BEST EXAMPLES I HAVE EVER HEARD AND IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT NOT ONLY HAS IT JUST NOT BEEN PLAYED MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES, BUT THAT THE VERY LIMITED PLAY IT HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED WITH THE UTMOST CARE
SIDE ONE PLAYS ABSOLUTELY AS NEW!!!
SIDE TWO HAS A LITTLE STATIC AND A FEW TINY LITTLE TICS IN 'YOU NEVER GIVE ME YOUR MONEY, & SUN KING ' BUT OTHERWISE IS AS GOOD AS SIDE ONE
I HEARD NO MORE THAN 1-2 TINY LITTLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE PLAYTHROUGH OF SIDE ONE THIS VINYL MINT!!!!! AND SIDE TWO NEAR MINT!!!
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN.AND THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THIS SLEEVE HISTORICALLY SUFFERS FROM SEVERE RING WEAR DUE TO THE FLIMSINESS OF THE CARD USED. THIS COPY IS FREE FROM ANY RING WEAR AND INCREDIBLY NO RECORD SHAPE EITHER
THERE ARE JUST FOUR MICROSCOPIC LAMINATE LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES, AND AMAZINGLY NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER.
NO LAMINATE LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE
THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN KEPT INSIDE A PLASTIC OUTER FROM NEW.
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT FROM TIP TO TIP ON BOTH EDGES
THE WAFER THIN SPINE IS IN MINT CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THERE IS NO WEAR AT ALL AND THIS EVEN INCLUDES THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP WITH JUST AN ABSOLUTE SPECK OF ROUGHNESS
THE THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS SUPERB AS THE FRONT, JUST TWO TINY LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE,
THIS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE IS THE LESS COMMON MISSALIGNED APPLE SLEEVE!!
THE ORIGINAL BLACK DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED. IT IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NO CREASES OR WRINKLES AND NO FOLDS OR BENDS, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY NO SEAM SPLITS!!
