Description
The time has come to unload my 6000+ collection. I have been collecting for FORTY YEARS. I have been working/managing record stores since 1991. Two of which are VERY NOTORIOUS. I’ve had access to PRIMO stuff that entire time and NEVER gave up on vinyl. That said, I didn’t sweat replacing things I already owned if the vinyl was flawless.
MEANING: NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF WAX I OWN IS BELOW VG+
MY GRADING GOES LIKE THIS and YOU’RE EITHER ON BOARD OR NOT:
- NOTHING is MINT if it’s UNSEALED
- NEAR MINT means I opened it myself and played it once to WAV/FLAC (depending on the time when that happened) or I know its origin and it is clearly devoid of noise during playback.
- VG+ means it might have visible scuffs AND/OR light “noise” that DO NOT AFFECT MUSIC as in, there’s light fuzzy lead-in/outs or in-between tracks and even then, VERY MINIMAL
- I have OCD so ANYTHING that popped/clicked during playback was destroyed. Yes, really
I playgraded my ENTIRE collection during COVID where just about everything was recorded to FLAC. 6TBs. FACT.
ALSO, EVERYTHING is catalogued properly on DISCOGS. So, I’m not wasting time listing matrices/run-outs unless ABSOLUTELY necessary. If I say it’s 2nd Print, that means I know for a fact that it is.
If I say it’s VG+ and you see scuffs, that’s explained above. DO NOT EXPECT NEAR MINT if it’s not listed as such. Things like that…🤦♂️🤮
EVERYTHING listed here will ALSO be on DISCOGS
And with that……
- 1984 Reissue
- Gorgeous vinyl with just a small 10-second spot of ticking as mentioned
- Pics taken in super bright sunlight (UV Protected Window). Ultrasonically cleaned & play-tested post
ZOOM in on the photos to further assess as one man’s crease is another man’s crevasse.
