The Beatles-Magical Mystery Tour-1981 Near Mint MFSL Rock LP Album

$

37

This is a near mint pressing of the MFSL edition of this LP released in 1981. This audiophile LP was recorded at half speed on virgin vinyl that is opaque (light passes through the vinyl) at half speed by JVC (Japan Victor Company). Also included are the original plastic audiophile quality record sleeve and the protective promotional cardboard sleeve in which LP sits.

As to grading, I grade very conservatively following Goldmine Record grading standard. Except that for records that are a notch below near mint, rather than VG ++, I prefer to use grade of Excellent. I do not use VG++ grade in addition to Excellent grade as is done by some.

The LP is in near mint condition with no visible marks on the vinyl. The LP was tested through headphones after manual cleaning plays beautifully and quietly. As the LP was tested several weeks before listing it should, of course, be cleaned again before play. The cover which is gatefold is in very good condition. The corners of the gatefold cover at all points are very slightly worn or dinged except for the top corner at the mouth which shows more wear. The bottom seam at the mouth has a small split less that 1/2 inch. The top seam and spine are strong with slight rub wear/loss of color. The spine is still strong but slightly yellowing but with no flaking or splits and the product information is clearly readable. The front and back of the cover are very clean and vibrant, as are both insides of gatefold cover.

The LP is being sold without reserve and payment is expected within 3 days of auction close. Return of the LP will only be accepted if the same LP sold and shipped is returned in the same condition .Buyers that behave in a less than ethical manner in the course of the transaction will be reported and blocked from participation in future auctions. The LP will be separated from the cover when shipped to prevent seam splitting. 

If you bid on and win more than one item shipping for multiple purchases will be adjusted. If you win more than one item do not pay until I have had the opportunity to issue new invoice to reflect combined lower shipping cost. Shipping for one item is $4 and includes tracking

I only ship to Paypal confirmed addresses in the United States. Thanks for looking.

Save me as a seller as I have several sealed rare 1960's and 1970's rock, soul, blues and jazz LPs that will be auctioned. I am also starting to auction over 200 open and very clean MFSL and other audiophile pressings (Nautilus Superdisc, Direct Disk, Nimbus Supercut, Columbia Mastersound, and Japanese pressings including number of originals), as well as over 200 promos. I will ultimately be auctioning almost 6500 rare and very clean LP albums.
