Description

Jethro Tull - Aqualung
This is the first UK release of the album in 1971.   It was released on Chrysalis/Island Records in a textured gatefold sleeve.  Cat # ILPS 9145.
Visual and play graded to Goldmine Standard - Vinyl is VG, sleeve is VG+.
Vinyl - Visually graded as VG.  Light superficial marks only, but I think enough of them to mark it down as VG.  I listened through a few parts of each side, focussing on intros/quiet parts, no surface noise heard at all, so it plays much better than VG but I prefer to grade conservatively.  VG
Sleeve - Gatefold sleeve is excellent, there is no visible wear to any of the surfaces, just really light wear to the edges/corners.  Spine is excellent. Picture inner sleeve has partial split to bottom edge, a small tear to top edge with a name written on.  Overall VG+

About the seller:
I am a record collector myself and have been buying vinyl online since the 90's.  I started selling on Ebay a few months ago and have sold 40+ records so far with no complaints - please check my feedback. I am now selling a collection of around 400 LPs that I have inherited from a family friend that have been in storage for over 25 years.  They have been stored upright in a smoke free home for that time.
Grading:
I grade records using the "Goldmine Standard."  If you are not familiar with this you can google it and find details quite easily.  None of the records I am selling are Mint (unopened, unused) so will normally be NM, VG+ or VG. I give a separate grading for the vinyl and the sleeve.  I do not have time to listen to each record fully but after careful visual inspection I always listen to any parts that have marks that look like they will even slightly affect the sound. I always try to give as much information as possible and highlight in the photos any wear.  Basically the last thing I want is the buyer to have any surprises when receiving the record.
Postage & packing:
All records are sent in a polythene sleeve in a corrugated cardboard mailer and with stiffeners.  I normally post the next working day and always within two.  I do not make any profit from P&P - Once Ebay and Paypal have taken their percentage and I pay for the mailer, sleeve and the postage itself, I just about break even. If you wish to buy more than one record and combine the shipping, please contact me first so I can check the records fit into one mailer.  Then after you purchase I will send you an invoice with combined shipping costs before you pay.
Any questions, please ask!
