VINYL

          Side 1:  plays Mint, visually as close to Mint as you’re likely to find with one very tiny inaudible blemish. Some sellers would call this visually Mint.

          Side 2:  opens with a faint, insignificant vinyl bump from the original pressing for 2 revolutions in the music. There’s a few ticks in the first gap, but not in the music. Looks and plays Mint otherwise.

           Side 3: looks and plays Mint

           Side 4: plays Mint, visually has a few nearly invisible wispy lines. They’re visible only under halogen light. Most sellers would call this visually Mint.

           Sides 5&6 “Apple Jam” looks and plays Mint.

LABELS:  all 6 labels are Mint with no spindle marks, two labels shown for reference

COVER

           Front:      barely a trace of soiling

           Back:      a few superficial scratches

           Interior:   clean, note that hinge tape was split by previous owner

           Corners:  all 8 corners completely solid

INNERS:   original inners with approx. one inch splits at bottoms, will also come with archival inners

INSERTS:   Poster is clean with no pin holes or tape residue

DESCRIPTION:   It would be incredibly difficult to find a better copy of this original Apple set. The vinyl blemishes described above are typically found on many mint LPs of this era and are only listed for the truly nit-picky. The discs retain all their original gloss and sound great.

No international shipping.

I ship once a week, but always within 5 days of your payment. Combined shipping is possible for up to three LPs with a small surcharge for added weight.

Records are shipped in the highest quality LP mailers with the record secured outside of the cover to avoid seam splits. Returned LPs must be shipped in the same way. Damage to the cover or disc will void returns.

Please don’t bid if If you own a Crosley or similar inexpensive (aka “cheap”) turntable. LPs that play perfectly on a real turntable may have problems playing correctly on a toy turntable with no ability to adjust tone arm tracking weight or anti-skid. These junk tables will destroy your collection. My advice: stop buying LPs until you purchase a real (non-USB) turntable, new or used.

   I began buying records in the mid 60’s and I've always been fanatical about record care and storage.

   The records I sell are from my personal collection, including backup copies. I've never been one to buy VG records or anything with an audible scratch, which eliminates the vast majority. If I do miss an audible flaw, then kindly contact me and it will be rectified.

   I use standard US grading plus the UK grade of EX in order to eliminate the dreaded VG++

   Records are first inspected under a halogen light (the only light that shows every flaw) and any blemishes are examined with a 10x power magnifier which allows the grooves to be fully inspected. Then they’re play graded on a Linn Sondek LP12.

   Over the decades, I've seen grading fads come and go, such as: “visual” grading by people who don't own a turntable; the current use of nonsense grades like NM+ and NM- as well as the dubious belief that there’s no such thing as a mint record.

   As a record buyer, I've had a lot of over graded “garage sale” LPs arrive covered with gritty dust and greasy fingerprints while the seller claims a “visual” grade based on fantasy. Be assured that my records will arrive clean and fingerprint free.
