THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREY LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION. NOT ONE MARK ON THEM, AND THE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
ALL OF THE TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE UNRUBBED AND ARE ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO SPIDER LINES NEXT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE NEW AND HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN AND LUSTRE. IN DAYLIGHT IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO BE SEEN
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 ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS 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 VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, AND THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB
AN ABSOLUTELY CLEAN AND CLEAR AUDIO PERFORMANCE THAT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER, AND NO LOUD CLICKS EITHER
NO VINYL NOISE AND ONLY A COUPLE OF LITTLE SPECKS OF STATIC HERE AND THERE
I HEARD NO MORE THAN ONE DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT MINUS
DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
THIS SINGLE SLEEVE IS A NON LAMINATED MACNEIL SLEEVE.
THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN WITH JUST A LITTLE NATURAL HANDLING AND AGEING ON THE SURFACE
THERE ARE FIVE SMALL LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE. TWO MICROSCOPIC ONES ALONG THE TOP EDGE, TWO ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE NEAR PERFECT WITH JUST A PIN PRICK OF RUB ON THE RIGHT CORNER TIP ENDS
THE SPINE HAS A LITTLE FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION AT THE TOP AND MIDDLE. THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND IT IS SO CLEAR THAT THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS EVERY BIT AS GOOD AS THE FRONT.
THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE IS FLAT, FREE FROM SPLITS AND CREASES, JUST SOME NATURAL EDGE AGEING
THE INSERT SHEET IS ALSO CREASE FREE
THIS SLEEVE GRADES NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
