Description
This record sounds abnormally amazing. ... I mean ... it sounds really, really good. I cannot recommend somebody scoop this thing up more, because I'm really impressed by it. Trust me. Let's put it this way -- the original inner still looks really crisp and new. It really is a phenomenal find ... I always find this LP trashed.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (9.0 of 10) Original mono Atlantic label. MONO. Visually, it looks amazing ... very few imperfections -- maybe one small cluster of very light scuffs. It plays perfectly, and ... I am pretty torn about actually selling it. I've thought about it long and hard, and decided to put it up for Buy it Now ... but if it doesn't sell, my feelings won't be hurt.
COVER: VG+ (9.5 of 10) I mean ... look at it. There's close to some splitting on bottom seam, in the middle, from storage ... but it's not breaking through, and trust me, the seams are beautiful. ... look at the corners. As crisp as they can be ... _________________________________________________________________ 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.
