THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREY AND SILVER LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLES. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALL CLEAR AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER ON THE LABELS AND EVEN USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS I COULD SEE ANY. A SUPREMELY CARED FOR VINYL
THE VINYL
THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN AND IN DAYLIGHT LOOKS FLAWLESS. EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION, THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES
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 WITH ALL MY LISTINGS AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE LP BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
I WAS IN TWO MINDS AS THE WHETHER TO PLAY THE RECORD OR NOT, BUT AS I ALWAYS SAY, UNPLAYED DOES NOT MEAN MINT, AND I HOPE THAT BIDDERS WOULD PREFER TO HAVE MY ONE CAREFUL TEST PLAY AND BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD RATHER THAN TAKE A CHANCE
THE FIRST THING TO SAY ABOUT THIS VINYL IS THAT THE CLARITY OF THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS. EACH NOTE IS HEARD VERY CLEARLY AND THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ALL THROUGHOUT ANY PART OF THE PLAY THROUGH. NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE
THIS DISC PLAYS TO ABSOLUTE PERFECTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS
A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF STATIC, AND NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF TINY TICS OR POPS.
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS DISC MINT
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS JUST SUPERB. FLAT AND CLEAN AND THE UNLAMINATED SURFACE HAS LOST NONE OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR WHICH IS STILL RICH AND VIBRANT.
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE ON THE SURFACE. NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE, AND FOUR SHARP AND SQUARE CORNER TIPS
NO PRESSURE LINES AT ALL BY THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES BY THE OPENING EDGE
THE TOP EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE, WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER, AND BOTH CORNER TIPS ARE IN UNBLEMISHED CONDITION
THE BOTTOM CORNER IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL WITH A MINUSCULE SPECK OF RUB TO THE CORNER TIPS
THE SPINE IS PERFECTLY FLAT AND AGAIN FREE FROM ANY COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIPS HAVE REMAINED RUB FREE
THE OPENING EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY RAZOR SHARP
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT.
NO RECORD SHAPE OR RING WEAR WHATSOEVER
THE GLOSSY PAPER PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS IN MINT UN-CREASED, UN-SPLIT CONDITION AND LOOKS SUBLIME
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS SLEEVE MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
