Description
Media: Mint Minus
Sleeve: Very Good
(See below for grading legend and method)
Happy New Year everyone, and let's start twenty sixteen with a bang, shall we?
Rumored to be one of just 500 copies, please find here an exceptionally clean item.
This record has been in a single collection since purchase.
Judging from the single, very light spindle skid on either side, it is safe to say that this record was only ever played once on each side.
The record is otherwise shiny and halogen-lit flawless!
Original inner sleeve discolored and crinkly but otherwise excellent, with no rips or splits.
Record has been stored in a new nylon lined paper sleeve.
Sleeve front shows some ringwear and subsequent lamination lift.
Sleeve back shows some aging on unlaminated portions of glued flaps. Otherwise nice and clean with a discreet bendmark bottom left and a smidgen of ringwear.
Spine shows two small nicks but is otherwise excellent and maintains its broadness.
Please consult the photos. More gladly provided.
The record has not been played by myself; I do not dare (my Denon DL-103 notwithstanding) do so. Neither do I presume to hold the honor of playing this record for only its second time.
Bidding starts, tongue in cheek, at €1.
More descriptions gladly provided. Please drop us a line and we'll be as explicit as possible.

GRADING LEGEND - MEDIA
MINT:
Record sealed and in perfect condition.
MINT-MINUS:
Seems unplayed and is almost flawless.
VERY GOOD PLUS:
Shiny and clean. May have a hairline or mark that does not affect play, and could have a stray, random click.
VERY GOOD:
Use evident but well cared for. Low surface noise. May start off with a crackle which lessens significantly after a few turns.
ACCEPTABLE:
Use evident with hairlines and scuffing. Moderate surface noise with occasional clicks and pops.
FAIR:
Heavy hairlines and scuffing, as well as some scratches, but no skips. Pervasive surface noise.
GRADING LEGEND - SLEEVE
MINT:
May be unsealed, but is definitely flawless.
MINT-MINUS:
You really have to look, but there's a spot or nick somewhere.
VERY GOOD PLUS:
Overall nice and clean, but there's a nick, bend or bruise that is not too evident.
VERY GOOD:
Used but well cared for. May exhibit light ringwear, bend marks, edge scuffing and/or sticker bruises, but discreetly.
ACCEPTABLE:
Obviously used. Will show ringwear, bendmarks, edge scuffing, cellotaping and/or sticker bruises, but no rips, splits or tears, and is not too distressing to the eye.
FAIR:
Same as ACCEPTABLE, but may have small rips, splits or tears. Sleeve is intact but not pretty.
GENERIC:
White, nylon lined paper sleeve. Comes with polyethylen outer protective sleeve for optimal storage.
GRADING METHOD
- Records are first assessed visually. Obviously scratched or otherwise poor records are discarded.
- Records are then triple washed ultrasonically, after which they are re-examined visually.
- Obviously flawless records are double checked for excellent sound and graded as such.
- Records showing hairlines, specks, scuffing, fogginess or other manifestations, no matter how minute, are examined thoroughly on our Technics SL-150 MKII, fitted with an SME 3009 Series III tonearm and Denon DL-103 MC cartridge. Results of this examination are conveyed unabashedly if they fall beyond our standard grading legend.
