Description
I am selling some of my personal vinyl collection. Many of these records are UK pressings and were mainly purchased by myself in the 1970’s/80’s. They have been extremely well looked after, most having only been played a handful of times on Linn or Rega turntables with a light stylus tracking force of 1.5 to 1.75 g.
Please read the description below for vinyl condition (as per the Record Collector Grading System), but for most of my records the vinyl can be considered as in near mint or excellent condition, shiny and with no significant marks – basically almost as good as when it came out of the original shop. The covers vary in condition but most are excellent just showing the usual signs of storage. Most have been stored in plastic protective covers.
A word about hairline marks. It is almost impossible to find any non-sealed record without any hairline marks - many had them from new, particularly if sold with cardboard inner sleeves. They are a result of storage and use and have little impact on sound quality. Likewise, very few original vinyl records lie totally flat. As for background noise, all records will have some background noise which varies wildly and often reflects the very variable pressing quality. I have bought new heavy pressing LP's in recent years and many of the original records I am selling not only look better but they sound better! I only draw attention to marks, warping or background noise in my listings if I consider them significant.
All records have been cleaned using high quality professional Record Cleaning Machines - either a £3,000 Keith Monks Omni VII RCM or a Moth Pro Mk II RCM. Not only does this wet clean/vacuuming process remove surface marks such as fingerprints, etc, it also significantly reduces background noise and many argue that the lower noise floor results in opening up of the sound and improved fidelity.
This album is Led Zeppelin's classic "Physical Graffiti" double LP on the Swan Song label SSK 89400. This is many a hard core Zeppelin fan's favourite album and it is not hard to see why.
Matrix marks A4/B2/C3/D3 - German (Alsdorf) pressing.
Vinyl grading is near mint according to the Record Collector Grading System - it appears unplayed and I don't remember ever playing it. It is a copy I sorted away as my library "reserve" copy. Records have been preserved in Nagaoka inner sleeves for protection.
Test played superbly on my Rega RP6 turntable with dynamic sound and very low background noise.
The original sleeve and inserts are all also in superb condition - see photos below. Cover has been preserved in a plastic cover.
I dispatch worldwide in reinforced heavy duty LP mailers with cardboard reinforcements either side.
Please see my other listings with many auctions of classic rock albums to come so save me as a favourite seller. Typical postage prices as follows and combined postage with other albums saves money (double album counts as 2 records):
UK: 1 record £3.50, 2 records £4.50, 3 records £6.
EU: 1 record £5.50, 2 records £7, 3 records £8.50.
International: 1 record £8.50, 2 records £10, 3 records £11.50.
Some countries may require International Signed For so please ask.
Please see my feedback, particularly on other records I have sold, and thanks for looking.
