Description

Over the next few days, i will be listing about 80 vinyl records from my personal collection.  I have been collecting records now for the last 20+ years and just over the last couple years i have been selling off that collection.  Many of these vinyl's will be original releases, some will still have shrink and hype stickers intact and may have original inserts and all of them are rated in VG to NM condition all the way around from the cover to the vinyl itself.  Several will also be limited edition reissues and many of those will be still factory sealed.  A little bit about how i handle my vinyl collection.  When i receive a record the first thing i do is to place the insert inside the cover if it came with one and was shipped outside.  Next i always place the cover inside a brand new fresh 3mm plastic vinyl sleeve for protection.  Next, i always clean the vinyl and play test it for any skips or noticeable popping sounds or other flaws.  I make note of any scratches and how they effect the play back of the record.  Once i am done grading the record, it goes in a brand new fresh audiophile sleeve to keep it in exactly the same condition as i received it in.  Periodically i will play my records for my own listening pleasure but many go un-played after that initial play test and cataloging.  Any time i play my record, i always clean it before each play and after each play to ensure it is kept in the best condition possible.  I also clean the needle on my turn table before each play.  As you can see, i take a lot of pride in my record collection and keeping it in the best condition possible so that when i do sell them, you will know exactly what you are buying and there are no surprises. 
Today's auction is for a 1987 Mercury Records Original for the band Warlock and their renowned album Triumph and Agony, this is a more rare version as this is the Specialty Records Corporation release, identified by the number "49" which appears below the "Side 1" and "Side 2" on the vinyl labels.  This rare original is also still in its original shrink, although a bit torn in spots as you can see on the pictures, but it is still on there:)  The cover is in VG+ condition, very minimal edge wear, ringwear and creasing on the cover for how old it is.  Also included is the original insert which is in VG condition.  It does have about a 1/4 inch tear in one side but is so small it is hardly visible. The vinyl itself is in VG+ condition, does have some light surface marks and also has some hazing on the vinyl as well but none of this impacts the play of the record as it plays perfectly on both sides.
