Description
So this copy has one major issue -- I'm pretty sure somebody tried to fix a skip and rubbed a small area. On my table. The one spot still skipped. That being said: buy knowing there could be one spot on side 1, track 1 that has a skip. BE AWARE THAT THIS ALBUM MAY HAVE A SKIP.
See below for more detail:
**** READ DISCLAIMER*** VINYL: VG+ (7.5 of 10) Original Riverside mono press; Deep groove. Beautiful vinyl except for a scuff and one spot where there's a skip ... and then somebody tried to fix the skip but made the area worse. Other than that, the rest of the vinyl is beautiful.
COVER: VG+ (8.5 of 10) Looks great. Spine seems a little weak-ish, but no splits. A bit of wear. .... I friggin' love this art. _________________________________________________________________ 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, standard solid state amplification to KLH 17 speakers. An accurate-sounding system if I say so myself.
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.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. I 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.
