A rare find!
Vinyl - Excellent (Nice and Shiny but does have some surface scratches. I have played through all 4 sides and none of the scratches influence playback. It is however not Near Mint, I just want to be clear. Side C &B are closer to Near Mint).
Gatefold - Excellent (Mostly sharp edges. Wear on spine where record inserts. One crease on lower left corner. Some small creases spread throughout fully laminated cover on both sides but no discoloration, peeling stains, or marks. Very shiny and glossy.)
Sound - Wow!
All my vinyl is from my personal collection and play tested on my Garrard 301 with SME 309 tonearm and ZYX Airy cartridge. I am the original owner and all my vinyl is kept in my temperature controlled audio room. No smoking and no pets!
All my vinyl are housed in sealed clear vinyl jackets to protect the gatefold and LP's are housed outside the gatefold in aftermarket paper sleeves with poly lining. Of course if original sleeves are necessary to the integrity of the album they are also kept.
I am parting with my entire collection over the next few months so please check back often! I will of course do combined shipping if a buyer wins multiple records. All records ship in new vinyl cardboard holders.
Please check my feedback and be assured I strive to make a smooth transaction. All payments expected within 12 hours of winning. No International bidders please. Please ask any questions prior to bidding and I will do my best to answer in a timely manner.
Obviously the current pandemic is a concern in any transaction. It is important to notify my buyers that no one in my household is sick and we have all been practicing social distancing (limited outings just for food) and proper household sanitation. In addition, I will wash my hands and wear latex gloves while preparing record shipments. Let's all stay safe and healthy during these times and thanks for bidding!
