FROM SMOKERS HOME 
DUE TO A PAST NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FROM A EBAY SCAM ARTIST TRYING TO GET SOMETHING FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED THEN LEFT NEGATIVE FEEDBACK. I NOTICED AT THE TIME THE BUYER HAD DONE THIS BEFORE IN HIS FEEDBACK HISTORY ALONG WITH SEVERAL SELLERS CANCELLING SALES TO HIM BECAUSE OF IT. SO CONSIDER EVERYTHING I SELL TO BE FROM A SMOKERS HOME AS I HAVE TO DO THIS SO I'M NOT EXTORTED FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED ITEMS. IT'S FUNNY OUT OF THE 400-500 ITEMS I SELL YEARLY THAT JUST ONE OR TWO WOULD SAY THE ITEMS SMELL LIKE SMOKE WANTING DISCOUNTS OR SOMETHING FOR FREE AND WHEN IT'S NOT GIVEN TO THEM LEAVE BAD FEEDBACK EVEN THOUGH A FULL REFUND WAS OFFERED TO THEM IF THEY RETURNED IT IN THE ORIGINAL PACKING AND PACKAGED BACK EXACTLY LIKE IT WAS SHIPPED. ONCE ITEMS LEAVE MY COLLECTION I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING AND WILL NOT BE RESPONSABLE FOR WHAT MY PACKAGES ARE SUBJECTED TO DURING TRANSIT IF BY CHANCE THE UPS, USPS OR FEDEX EMPLOYEES SMOKE IN THE THEIR VEHICLES ,TERMINAL,ETC,ETC. OR ANYWHERE DURING THE TRANSIT PROCESS.

WELCOME TO!!!  CLASSIC ROCK VINYL - AND MORE

CONDITION / GRADE: USED, VERY GOOD COVER AND VINYL

ITEM NOTES & DESCRIPTION: FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION AND PLAY GRADED ,AS ALL MY RECORDS ARE, ON MY DENON DP51-F TURNTABLE AT 2 - 2.5gm TRACKING FORCE THROUGH POLK AUDIO SDA 1A's.  HERE'S AN AWESOME 1978 FIRST PRESSING PICTURE DISC OF ACE FREHLEY'S SOLO ALBUM. BOTH THE VINYL AND COVER ARE IN "VG" CONDITION.  THE COVER SPINE AND EDGES ARE COMPLETE WITH NO SPLITTING BUT DOES HAVE NORMAL WEAR FOR THE GRADE WITH SOME CORNER DINGS AND WRINKLING. THE VINYL SOUNDS NICE WITH THAT OL'S SCHOOL WARM VINYL ATMOSPHERE WITH SOME SURFACE NOISE FOR THE GRADE. IT'S MORE NOTICABLE DURING QUIETER PASSAGES OR BETWEEN TRACKS AND NEVER OVERWHELMS THE TOTAL LISTENING EXPERINCE. ON AVERAGE A LOT OF PICTURE DISCS AREN'T THAT GREAT SOUNDING AS THEY WERE PRODUCED FOR DISPLAY OR AS A COLLECTIBLE NOVELTY BUT I'VE OWNED ALL OF THE 78' SOLO PIC DISCS AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER AND THE 78' FIRST PRESSINGS HAVE ALWAYS SOUNDED GREAT AND SOUND BETTER THEN ANY OF THE LATER RE-ISSUES, BUT THAT'S JUST MY OPINION. I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT THE 78' PRESSINGS HAVE A BETTER OVER-ALL SOUNDSTAGE WITH DEEPER BASS AND MORE DETAILED MIDS AND HIGH END SONICS.  THE VINYL HAS SOME SURFACE MARKS- BUT NO DEEP SCRATCHES OR SCUFFS AND PLAYS GREAT!. IF YOUR PLANNING ON PLAYING PICTURE DISCS IT'S BEST TO USE A TURNTABLE THAT HAS COUNTERWEIGHT AND ANTI-SKIP ADJUSTMENT SINCE THE RECORDS ARE PRODUCED A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM REGULAR FACTORY PRESSINGS WITH THEIR PICTURE LAYER AND FROM MY EXPERIENCE THEY WILL WEAR OUT YOUR STYLUS SO MUCH FASTER THAN REGULAR PRESSINGS, SO HAVING THOSE ADJUSTMENTS CAN HELP REDUCE ALL OF THE ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH ACTUALLY PLAYING PICTURE DISCS. ON A DAY-TO-DAY LISTENING BASIS I'VE ALWAYS PLAYED MY REGULAR PRESSINGS TO SAVE THE EXCESS WEAR AND FOR SOUND QUALITY AND KEEP MY PIC DISCS FRAMED FOR DISPLAY, OCCASIONALLY PLAYING THEM FROM TIME TO TIME. CHECK OUT ALL OF THE PICS I'VE INCLUDED FOR YOUR REFERENCE AND PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS AND DO NOT ACCEPT ANY KIND OF BUYERS REMORSE WHAT SO EVER. I HAVE TO STATE ALL OF THIS SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE SCAMMERS AND THIEFS THAT WANT TO RIP OFF HONEST AND LEGIT EBAY SELLERS TRYING TO GET ITEMS FOR FREE OR AT A DISCOUNT.  AND PLEASE CHECK OUT MY FEEDBACK REGARDING MY PACKAGING AND SERVICE, I BELEIVE IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF WHETHER IT'S A $10.00 ITEM OR A $200.00+ VERY RARE COLLECTIBLE ,OR, RECORD ,OR, PIECE OF MUSIC MEMORABILIA. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME PRIOR TO BIDDING AND/OR PURCHASING ,AND, BY BIDDING AND/OR PURCHASING ANY OF MY ITEMS YOU AGREE TO ALL OF MY TERMS, CONDITIONS AND POLICIES.  I ONLY USE "NEW" PACKAGING MATERIALS WITH ANY NEEDED PROTECTION AND PADDING FOR THE BUYER.  I WILL ALSO BE LISTING OTHER "KISS" MUSIC THIS WEEK INCLUDING AN ORIGINAL 1978 1st PRESSING OF PAUL'S SOLO ALBUM PICTURE DISCS , ALSO, A VERY RARE "PROMO" CASSETTE OF ACE'S - FREHLEY'S COMET "SECOND SIGHTING" , AND ALSO, ACE'S 2020 "Record Store Day" 2-LP 180gm 45rpm COLORED VINYL RELEASE OF "TROUBLE WALKIN' ", THANK YOU SO MUCH.
