SUPERB DISC.NOT A FINGERMARK ANYWHERE, AND IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE JUST A FEW NON SOUNDING WISPY HAIRLINES, AND A COUPLE OF DULL STREAKS
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE LP FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS LP SOUNDS.
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PERFECT WITH EVERY NOTE BEING HEARD CLEARLY AND CLEANLY AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED
NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT MEANING THAT IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED WITH A WORN OR CHIPPED STYLUS, AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO HEAVY BACKGROUND CRACKLE EITHER, NOR ANY LOUD CLICKS
I HEARD JUST THE OCCASIONAL MINUSCULE SPECK OF VINYL NOISE IN ONE OR TWO OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I DIDN'T HEAR ANY STATIC TICS / DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH MINT MINUS IT IS THAT GOOD
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
ROBOR ZIPPO LIGHTER SLEEVE IN FULLY WORKING CONDITION CONDITION
FIRST THING TO MENTION IS THE ZIPPO OPENING RIVET IS IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER. THE TOP OPENS EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD AND THE RIVET IS IN UNBLEMISHED CONDITION
THERE ARE A FEW LIGHT CREASE LINES ON THE FRONT. A FEW ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT EDGES. ONE ACROSS THE TOP RIGHT CORNER, ONE UNDER THE TOP EDGE OF THE FLIP TOP.
THERE IS ALSO A ROUND MARK WHERE AN ORIGINAL STICKER WAS REMOVED AND PULLED AT THE PAPER ON THE OUTER EDGE. I GUESS IT WAS MORE STICKY AT THE EDGE THAN IN THE MIDDLE/ THERE IS ALSO A TINY STAIN MARK JUST UNDER THE CIRCLE
OPENING THE ZIPPO REVEALS A PERFECT TOP INNER SURFACE. NO BURRING TO THE OUTER RIM
THE OUTER EDGES OF THE SLEEVE HAVE SOME RUBBING, SHOWING SOME LIGHT WHITE FLECKS ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM. THE SPINE HAS A PATCH OF WEAR BY THE RIVET, AND SOME MORE EVIDENCE OF SHELF WEAR ON THE REST
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN CLEAN CONDITION, JUST A COUPLE OF LIGHT CREASE LINES
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE EXCELLENT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
