Description

Colosseum - Valentyne Suite

This is the UK gatefold release of this LP on Vertigo in 1970. Cat # VO 1 / 847 900 VTY.
The original release was non-gatefold in 1969, so this is classed as a reissue.

Visual and play graded to Goldmine Standard - Vinyl is VG+, sleeve is VG.

Vinyl - Visually graded VG, there are a few marks/scuffs, albeit superficial. Having listened through most of side 1 and parts of side 2, paying attention to quiet parts/intros, I could hear no surface noise at all and it sounds excellent so grading VG+

Sleeve - Edge wear to top and bottom edges, corner bumps, creasing to inside of gatefold toward the spine. Small sticker on front cover. The spine is excellent, all text readable and there are no seam splits. Original Vertigo inner sleeve is creased to the corners and split down one side. VG

About the seller:
I am a record collector myself and have been buying vinyl online since the 90's.  I started selling on Ebay a few months ago and have sold 80+ records so far - please check my feedback. I am now selling a collection of around 400 LPs that I have inherited from a family friend that have been in storage for over 25 years.  They have been stored upright in a smoke free home for that time.
Grading:
I grade records using the "Goldmine Standard."  If you are not familiar with this you can Google it and find details quite easily.  None of the records I am selling are Mint (unopened, unused) so will normally be NM, VG+ or VG. I give a separate grading for the vinyl and the sleeve.  I do not have time to listen to each record fully but after careful visual inspection I always listen to any parts that have marks that look like they will affect the sound. I always try to give as much information as possible and highlight in the photos any wear to the sleeves.  Basically the last thing I want is the buyer to have any surprises when receiving the record.
Postage & packing:
All records are sent in a polythene sleeve in a corrugated cardboard mailer and with stiffeners.  I normally post the next working day and always within two.  I do not make any profit from P&P - Once Ebay and Paypal have taken their percentage and I pay for the mailer, sleeve and the postage itself, I just about break even. If you wish to buy more than one record and combine the shipping, please contact me before paying so I can send a new invoice. I can normally fit up to 3 records in one mailer, depending on the thickness of the sleeves. International shipping is through the Ebay Global Shipping Programme where Ebay take care of the shipping outside of the UK. There is better protection in this method for buyer and seller.
Any questions, please ask!
