Description
NOTE: I'll allow Ebay overseas shipping program only for international orders. I ship to a distribution location, and they handle from there -- and I believe it's fairly expensive. So check before hand.
The condition of this vinyl is fantastic. The sleeve is pretty great as well; not perfect, but not awful. See more below -- pretty rare Moodsville ... I've only seen it twice in person.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (9.5 of 10) OG MONO, Deep groove, RVG stamps, Bergenfield address Moodsville/Prestige press. Vinyl is beautiful. I found two super, super light "whisp" marks -- really difficult to find. I needed to look under really bright light to find them. Play is killer, which is what you need for this album considering it's only Red and his piano. Fantastic fidelity.
COVER: Solid VG (7.0 of 10) Pretty decent cover. A little ring wear, Very small amount of chipping. No splits. Back bottom left corner and bottom seam area has a little moisture damage -- otherwise it's pretty solid. Liner notes have a very small area where some words are rubbed off on the moisture corner. _______ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, I am only shipping overseas with the eBay shipping program. It places liability on them for transit rather than myself.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do try to describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
