Description

Here are the first 5 lps by Black Sabbath all Japanse pressings reissued on the NEMS label. Included is a promo copy of the 2lp We Sold Our Soul for Rock & Roll lp pressed in the US.

The albums are: Black Sabbath, Nems SP18-5010 with insert Paranoid, Nems SP18-5011 with Obi and insert Master of Reality, Nems SP18-5012 with insert Volume 4, Nems SP18-5013 with Obi and insert Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Nems SP18-5014 with insert

Normally I would rate each individually but to avoid duplication let me say all the covers and lps are EX++ to near mint. Most would just call them mint, but near mint is more accurate. The only mark on any of the vinyls is a hairline between Lord of This World and Solitude on the Master of Reality lp, but it's so light it does not effect play at all. Finally, the We Sold Our Soul lp cover and disc are in EX to EX+ condition. The labels all say PROMOTION NOT FOR SALE and the cover sticker is here but came off and is held on by a post it note to not damage the cover.

Again, a very nice set of audiophile pressings Replace those scratchy copies today!

These are some VERY nice lps with super high quality sound. You won't be disappointed.

The Rules- Buyer pays actual shipping. No hidden charges. Sellers who charge 4-6 dollars for Media mail are a pet peeve of mine.

Use the shipping calculator to figure your costs. Paypal preferred, money orders O.K.

The Rant: I'm tired of receiving lps graded MINT that have scratches and scuffs. Also the ones that are so dirty the seller can't see the scratches and scuffs. I'm also dizzy from trying to decipher mint minus from EX+, VG+ from EX, etc, with no description of what caused that rating.

The commitment: I'll describe the item as much as I need to to give a clear picture of the condition. If there are flaws, I'll describe them. If there are ANY marks OF ANY KIND on the vinyl I'll play through them to make sure they do not affect the listening experience. If they do, the listing will say so. Grading is an arbitrary thing, so I'll assign a grade, and you can use the description to cross check. Please e:mail any questions prior to the close of the auction. I will guarantee your money back, plus your postage, if the description of the item is inaccurate.

The Request: If for any reason you are unhappy with what you receive, talk to me and let's try to work it out before starting the feedback wars. I'll be reasonable and respectful, unlike some of the dealers I've tried to talk to about their ratings.

Thanks for looking, and good luck!
