The MOST of The ANIMALS
Coumbia SX 6035 (blue/black label)
1965 UK 1st pressing
Discogs [r5486970]
Vinyl VG - Only few light scuffs on surface. Clean, detailed sound. Record was cleaned with a Knosti (1st dip in fresh batch 20%IPA /distilled water) and no remaining background noise to speak of, so why the conservative grade? Groove wear has resulted in a slight crackle/fuzziness on some high notes in places. The album still plays well and should be considered to be at the top end of this category (unlike 'Please Please Me' the first Beatles album, mint cover but pretty much un-listenable to!). Spindle marking on label .
Cover VG+ - Presents very well. Clean and unmarked. Very little edge or corner wear. Crisp spine with minimal creasing and little damage to lamination. Rear a little faded/grubby, particularly around edge of flipbacks, but actually quite good for age. Original 'EMITEX' liner in good condition. New 180 micron PVC sleeve

£3 Discount for each additional album/12” purchased at the same time.
- Listed items that include multiple albums/singles will only attract a single discount
£1.50 Discount for a 2nd single purchased at the same time.
- As long as both are non gatefold
- 3rd, 4th, 5th singles, or combining singles and albums gets complicated because of restrictive size guidelines and the quality of my mail stiffeners.
- I always endeavour to pass on postage savings to the buyer. If in doubt ask and I’ll see what I can do.
Given that Ebay is an unseen, trust based marketplace, my assessment's will be conservative, detailed and based upon listening to the records for sale. My gradings are based upon the Goldmine Standard (abridged and paraphrased from Discogs below).
Near Mint (NM or M-)
A nearly perfect record. A NM- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. I am unlikely to ever use this grading for vinyl quality unless I KNOW a record to be new, unplayed and probably still wrapped.
A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, surfaces may show slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences.
The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Picture sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by an indentation or sample distribution cut. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.
Very Good (VG)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches that will affect the sound.
Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time.
Good (G), Good Plus (G+)
In truth I wouldn’t usually bother listing vinyl in this condition, that is with ‘noticeable surface noise and ticks’ although I would consider listing an unusual record with a cover in this condition where ‘seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present’
