Description
I gotta say, I love this thing. I love the music, the art, the label ... I mean the deep groove just adds the X-factor of cool. And I am actually a little hesitant to list -- it just might be one I end up keeping. It's a relaxing gem for sure.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (9.0 of 10) Deep Groove, OG tri-color label. Super cool. Like I love this pressing -- I never see deep groove Reprise records. In any case, this copy is pretty much top. It would be pretty hard to find a better one ... a small knick here or there, but that's about it. Retains a beautiful shine.
COVER: VG+ (8.0 of 10) Great except for a little wear to the art on front. No splits or anything like that. Spine has a little splitting on top left corner, but it doesn't take away from the integrity of the cover. _________________________________________________________________ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I dp describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
