I HAVE UNEARTHED A LARGE COLLECTION OF ROCK ALBUMS THAT ARE IN A CONDITION THAT DEFIES BELIEF!!

THEY BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO DID EXACTLY THAT - COLLECT THEM!!!

NEVER PLAYED!!! AND NEVER HANDLED!!!

THEY WERE FOUND INSIDE A LOCKED ROOM WHERE THEY HAVE SAT UNMOLESTED FOR ALL THESE YEARS.

IT IS AS THOUGH THEY WERE BRAND NEW SHOP STOCK, BUT OF COURSE THERE IS ONLY ONE COPY OF EACH RECORD.

SO OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I AM GOING TO BE LISTING THESE NIGHTLY. YOU HAVE JUST THE ONE CHANCE TO SNAP UP SOMETHING UNIQUE IN THE COLLECTING INDUSTRY NAMELY ' A VINTAGE UNPLAYED VINYL!!!

NOW HAVING SAID THAT I WILL BE RUNNING A TEST PLAY ON EACH OF THEM TO RECORD THE VINYL FOR BIDDERS TO LISTEN TO, BECAUSE UNPLAYED DOESN'T ACTUALLY GUARANTEE MINT!!! WHAT I DO GUARANTEE IS THAT MY VERY CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL GO UNDETECTED

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE ORANGE VERTIGO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. A SOLID BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY MARKS OR STAINS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGO'S ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

THE SPINDLE HOLE IS TOTALLY UNWORN AND THERE ARE ZERO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL ABSOLUTELY GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. THE SHEEN IS FLAWLESS AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY MINT, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A GLEAMING MARK FREE VINYL.

THERE IS STILL A HUGE STRAND OF VINYL ATTACHED TO THE OUTER EDGE OF THE DISC. YOU CAN SEE SOME OF IT IN THE PICTURES. I HAVE VERY CAREFULLY POSITIONED IT WHILST PLAYING THE LP SO AS NOT TO DISTURB IT, BUT THIS IS REAL PROOF OF IT'S UNPLAYED STATUS PRIOR TO TODAY!!

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. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND BARELY A SPLIT SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF LINKING GROOVES

I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY  DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT!!!

PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES.ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME VERY VERY MILD GREY FRECKLING TO THE PERIMETER EDGES.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE PRISTINE AND THE GLOSSY GREEN COLOUR IS FULLY INTACT RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITH THE ONLY SLIVER OF WHITE SHOWING IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. 

THE SPINE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. TOTALLY FLAT AND ONLY A COUPLE OF LIGHT INDENTS WHERE THE THREE SMALL LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE ON THE FRONT SURFACE HAVE CREPT ROUND ONTO THE SPINE'S SURFACE. ALL OF THE GOLD TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS AS CLEAN AS THE FRONT WITH NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, NO SMALL LINES NEAR ANY OF THE EDGES, AND JUST A SMALL THUMB IMPRESSION NEAR THE OPENING EDGE AT THE VERY TOP.

THE RED PAPER INNER SLEEVE IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. NO MARKS, STAINS, SPLITS OR HEAVY CREASES. JUST A SHADOW OF RECORD SHAPE AND THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER IS LIGHTLY WRINKLED
