Description
Original UK pressing of Dando Shaft's second album: Neon NE5
The vinyl is in great shape (see description below).
The beautiful textured gatefold cover has one slight flaw: there is some visible ring wear on the back. I'm including a second scan, so you can see for yourself what it looks like. (You can see all of it in the scan; there is no ring wear in the top half of the back!) There is some minimal shelf wear along the bottom edge, but otherwise the sleeve is perfect: the front and the inside of the gatefold look as new.
Both labels are clean: no writing, stickers or tears.
The original black inner sleeve is present and intact, except that the plastic has separated from the paper (this has happened to all my Neon inner sleeves).
The low starting price does NOT mean that there is anything wrong with this record!
I'm selling off the records I collected between 1968 and 1988, because I have realised that although I prefer vinyl in theory, I hardly ever listen to them anymore, as I've got most of the music on CD reissues now.I bought these records new, and have taken great care of them. I have played all of them a few times, but on good equipment, and when I take them out of their sleeves, I don't touch the playing surface, and I always put them back in their sleeves immediately. They are stored correctly, so they are not warped.
This means that my records still sound practically as new. If you turn the treble up, you might hear the occasional soft click or faint crackling between tracks or in very quiet passages, but there are no scratches or any other kind of damage.
The vinyl looks perfect in normal daylight, but under very bright light you can see some faint superficial lines (but can't you always?)
I will carefully describe any flaws that go beyond this; otherwise you can assume that the above description applies.
I will describe the covers individually, because I think here generalisations are pretty useless for the buyer. This will make some of them sound less perfect than they actually are, because I will focus on the flaws (rather than tell you how fantastic they still look).
One generalisation: I NEVER write on covers or labels.
If you have any questions, please contact me (but don't wait till the last minute; I'm not online 24/7).
Please check out my other stuff. I'm going to auction off quite a few of my albums over the next few months. Coming up: Vertigo swirls, Neon, Krautrock ... POSTAGEPriority Post is usually pretty fast, but Economy post takes about two weeks in Europe and even longer to the rest of the world, so you'll need some patience if you go for this option.
I always post the records the day after I receive payment (or even on the same day) - there is nothing else I can do to speed up delivery.
Priority and Economy will have different names on the invoice, because I have not found out how to adapt the invoice accordingly, but I'm sure you'll see which is which.
