My listings will include rare and not so rare but as vinyl is in such demand these days I'll be covering the whole spectrum, as I firmly believe there is a market for everything (NO musical snobbery !!). All records have been sourced ,by extensive advertising, from private collections, and are not from shoddy wholesale job lots. I've a huge stock of records at the moment so if there is anything you are looking for drop me an email. Rest assured, MINT means MINT (no marks/no scratches/no spindle marks/faultless vinyl/faultless sleeve)....and I'm not afraid to use the term VERY GOOD which, incidentally, does not mean trashed !!!! I'll be continually listing some great stuff so keep an eye out. 

AND REMEMBER, MOST IMPORTANTLY, VINYL IS FOR PLAYING !!!!!!

CONDITION

BOX

The box with stickered pasted front is in EXCELLENT condition. A solid, crisp box with only a couple of areas of slight handling wear to the edges of the pasted section, a couple of areas of bubbling, and a few indentations. There is no edge wear, no corner wear, no dings/dents, no discolouration, no mustiness, no grubbiness, no folds, no writing, no seam splits, no tears, no sellotape, no stickers (apart from the original EMI STEREOPHONIC RECORDING sticker still perfectly attached top right front face) no wear and no softening to the opening edges, and no wear to near perfect square spines. The inside of the box is near perfect, as is the hinge mechanism. The box grades EXCELLENT++

BOOKLET

The accompanying 44 page booklet (which had to be purchased separately) grades near MINT.

INSERT

The 7 page insert grades near MINT. 

INNER SLEEVE

The correct EMI polylined inner sleeves have no seam splits or tears and grade EXCELLENT.

VINYL

The records have clearly not been played a great deal....have NO scratches, only a few light inconsequential surface marks and scuffs, and only a few of the very lightest sleeve removal scuffs when viewed at an angle under a bright light. The vinyl grades between EXCELLENT++ and EXCELLENT++++.

LABELS

The labels grade near MINT , with only a couple of visible spindle marks on each side, with no wear to near perfect spindle holes, and no unwanted wear or writing.

PLEASE NOTE: I know many classical collectors have record cleaning machines and your own method of cleaning vinyl.....so unless requested the records will not be cleaned (the majority of LPs I'm listing are very clean already). Should you win one of the auctions and you request the record to be cleaned, it will be done using my "OKKI NOKKI RECORD CLEANING MACHINE" using the correct  mix of distilled water and concentrate, zapped with an anti-static gun and given a new polylined inner sleeve !!

STILL NOT SURE, THEN CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE!

I save the best of the classical records I have accumulated and list them twice a year.

Please bid with confidence as my descriptions are accurate and honest (check my feedback)....when grading/describing, as a vinyl addict, I always think "what would I want to know?"!. In order to achieve this I describe in the factual detail required for buyers to make there own decisions.....I won't try and mislead, and won't overlook flaws in order to hike up the price ! As you can see I usually use two pics at the most.....if ,however, you do require more close ups please do not hesitate to contact me and this can be arranged through email. However, for any reason you are unhappy I do offer a money back guarantee (less postage costs).
