I HAVE UNEARTHED A LARGE COLLECTION OF ROCK ALBUMS THAT ARE IN A CONDITION THAT DEFIES BELIEF!!

THEY BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO DID EXACTLY THAT - COLLECT THEM!!!

NEVER PLAYED!!! AND NEVER HANDLED!!!

THEY WERE FOUND INSIDE A LOCKED ROOM WHERE THAT HAVE SAY UNMOLESTED FOR ALL THESE YEARS.

IT IS AS THOUGH THEY WERE BRAND NEW SHOP STOCK, BUT OF COURSE THERE IS ONLY ONE COPY OF EACH RECORD.

SO OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I AM GOING TO BE LISTING THESE NIGHTLY. YOU HAVE JUST THE ONE CHANCE TO SNAP UP SOMETHING UNIQUE IN THE COLLECTING INDUSTRY NAMELY ' A VINTAGE UNPLAYED VINYL!!!

NOW HAVING SAID THAT I WILL BE RUNNING A TEST PLAY ON EACH OF THEM TO RECORD THE VINYL FOR BIDDERS TO LISTEN TO, BECAUSE UNPLAYED DOESN'T ACTUALLY GUARANTEE MINT!!! WHAT I DO GUARANTEE IS THAT MY VERY CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL GO UNDETECTED

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE ORANGE/RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS NO SPIDER LINES AROUND IT WHATSOEVER, SHOWING JUST WHY THIS LP HAS NOT BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF DULL STREAKS ON THE OUTER RIM .

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.

THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.

NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS

NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND BARELY A SPLIT SECOND OF STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES 

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN ONE DUST POP THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM MINT MINUS !!!!

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

SEMI LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN AND HAS NO LARGE CREASES OR CREASE LINES. NO LOSS OF COLOUR EITHER THROUGH SHELF WEAR.THERE ARE TWO FACTORY MADE SILVER LINES RUNNING PARALLEL WITH EACH OTHER EITHER SIDE OF THE LOGO (AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SLEEVE)

THERE ARE THREE MINUSCULE  LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINE, ONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE. NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE

THE TOP EDGE IS IMMACULATE HAVING A LUSH RED SURFACE WHICH RUNS ALL THE WAY FROM CORNER TO CORNER, WITHOUT ANY RUBBING EVEN TO THE CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGE IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL WITH JUST A SPECK OF RUB AT THE RIGHT TIP

THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM.THERE IS ONE LIGHT FINGER TO THUMB IMPRESSION. THE WHITE TYPEFACE IS ALL PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND THE RED AND ORANGE COLOUR IS UNBLEMISHED WITH EVEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS SHOWING ONLY A PIN PRICK OF WHITE THROUGH THE RED.

THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME SUPERB CONDITION AS THE FRONT, WITH JUST TWO LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE

THE LYRIC INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, AND NO MARKS OR STAINS

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
