Description

ARTIST - CLUSTER TITLE - ZUCKERZEIT LABEL - BRAIN CATALOG NO - 1065
Original first green label pressing. This record is BEAUTIFUL...high gloss and no major scuffs. Sounds incredible. The cover is excellent. I got this from an estate of a former record store owner. I was told by the person running the sale that he would bring home records, listen to them once, then put them away stored in plastic outer sleeves. I don't know if that's true, but by looking at the LP it sure is plausible. I will have to charge for Priority Mail for international bidders due to the value of the record. I do not want this to get lost! Thanks for looking.....  
International bidders- I do not change values on customs labels, and I may not be able to track in all places. Please wait for invoice. For items over $50.00 I ship priority only. I can combine shipping! Many times it means I can ship up to 3 LP's U.S. for the same cost as one, and possibly more 45's. International bidders - Combined shipping will be only based on weight, so I will need to know how many items are bought before sending invoice. Thanks again!!
VJ'S VINYL GRADING SYSTEM:
Mint - never used, once a record is opened, the top you can get is mint minus. Mint Minus - A great record, one or two fine hairline scuffs, sounds flawless. A mint minus record can "play" mint. Covers are new looking, may have shrink. Excellent - Can have faint hairline scuffs that do no affect play. Can have very minor infrequent crackling. Minor bumps in the cover. VG+ - Scuffs can be more prevalent, with a little more surface noise. If it visually has more scuffs but plays great, I will note that. Still, a very fine and playable copy. Covers have minor age and shelf wear.  VG - Can have lots of hairline scuffs, and maybe one or two scratches. Surface noise more prevalent with some popping in spots. Covers have more extensive age and shelf wear. Minor splits. VG minus - More in the way of scratches and surface noise is NOT infrequent. Still, a viable copy. Covers may have splits.  G+ - only reserved for a very rare or popular record. Very noisy, maybe some skips, scratches are evident. Covers are trashed.  STILL SEALED - I will grade the vinyl as "still sealed." That means it's probably mint minus, but I do not know if there was any factory defects. 
Hairline scuffs are light yet visible. You cannot feel them with the skin of your finger. Scratches you can feel. If I am on the fence between grades, I will go with the lower one.  I will not use VG++ etc., but will say that a record is a "strong" VG+. "Age wear" on a cover is either fading or yellowing. "Shelf wear" is ring wear, corner bumps, or fraying.
