THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLACK LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS JUST ONE MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NE-AR A TURNTABLE
THE VINYL
THIS VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW, AND HAS LOST NONE OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE HANDLING MARKS OR LINES, AND IN DAYLIGHT THIS DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS . WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES 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 NOW DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AND I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING ANY BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THIS VINYL PLAYS EVERY BIT AS SUPERBLY AS IT LOOKS. FROM THE SECOND THE STYLUS IS LOWERED ONTO THE RUN IN GROOVE THE CLARITY OF REPRODUCTION COMES THROUGH CRISPLY AND CLEARLY. THIS IS A FIRST PRESS SOUND IN EVERY WAY.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE, OR LOUD CLICKS
CERTAINLY NO VINYL NOISE AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD AS WAS INTENDED
THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SEMI SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC, AND I HEARD NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TINY AND BARELY AUDIBLE DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS !!!! FOR THE PLAYTHROUGH
TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM AND BE THE JUDGE YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
SEMI LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE WITH EMBOSSED LETTERING
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND PERFECTLY CLEAN.THE COLOURS ARE ALL IMMACULATE AND FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS.
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS, AND INCREDIBLY JUST ONE MINUSCULE PRESSURE LINE NEAR THE SPINE. TWO ALONG THE TOP EDGE, AND ONE ALONG THE BOTTOM AS WELL, AND FINALLY NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE. AROUND THE PERIMETER EDGES THERE IS A TRACE OF HANDLING
NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH FREE FROM ANY SHELF WEAR, AND THE COLOUR FULLY RUNS FROM CORNER TIP TO TIP
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS INTACT AND PRISTINE, AND ONLY THE VERY TIP AT THE BOTTOM SHOWS A TINY SPECK OF RUB
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM IS IN THE INCREDIBLE STATE THAT IT IS, BECAUSE IT JUST HASN'T BEEN REMOVED FROM THE SLEEVE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TIMES
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN NICE CONDITION. NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER WHICH IS QUITE RARE ON THIS TYPE OF SLEEVE. NO LINES AGAINST ANY OF THE EDGES, LIKE THE FRONT THERE IS SOME TRACES OF HANDLING TO THE EDGES
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE. THE SLEEVE IS JUST SUPERB!!
