Description
Really clean copy here! Snag this one, it's an incredible record. This is a relist, buy decided not to purchase -- just a quick reminder to please bid if you wish to buy. Thanks!
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (9.5 of 10) OG MONO copy, RVG runouts, fireworks label, Bergenfield address. It's clean. Only issue is some really light paper scuffing. Plays exactly like you want .... beautiful gloss.
COVER: VG+ (7.5 of 10) Cover is fantastic outside of three issues: 1) some very light tearing on top of front corner 2) Marker on back, and 3) 3" cracking (no split) top middle seam. Otherwise it's really, really nice. Fantastic gloss, tight seams (outside the crack), and not much age and soiling at all. Overall a very solid copy. _______ 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 AT MM cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: Free 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 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
