DIRECT FROM THE COLLECTION OF A MAJOR COLLECTOR WHO HAS FINALLY DECIDED TO SELL HAVING CARED AND CHERISHED HIS RECORDS-MOST BOUGHT NEW AT THE TIME WITH MINIMAL PLAYS AS OFTEN THE CASE WITH LARGE COLLECTIONS.THEY WERE STORED UPRIGHT ON STRONG SHELVING AWAY FROM LIGHT,HEAT,DAMP AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A NON-SMOKER! THIS IMPRESSIVE COPY HAS AMAZINGLY NOT HAD MUCH USE IN 37 YEARS. LOCATING A REALLY OUTSTANDING 1980 ISSUE PRESSING IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN ESPECIALLY REGGAE ONES AT PARTIES AND IT IS FACT THAT THE MAJORITY OF REGGAE FANS DO NOT LOOK AFTER THEIR RECORDS CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD CAREFUL USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES. NO SURFACE MARKS WHATSOEVER. THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND NO LOUD CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS. STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION! SUPERB SOUND! THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE CURVED EDGES INNER SLEEVE AND A SUPERB COVER WITH SOME MINOR CREASES AND A LITTLE FAINT STAINING BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS! PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE LPs FROM ME ON EBAY THIS WEEK AND TO FOLLOW. PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
