Description
Please Read Full Description and See Pictures
This is one of my first auctions. So I am highly motivated to make every transaction as close to perfect as I can. This why I keep my prices very reasonable, as I want to gain credibility with the bay community. My goal is to make this into a business account, and make it my full time job.
My family runs a rock radio trade publication. My father used to be a DJ, so I have been immersed in the music industry all my life. That being said, I have an abundance of memorabilia, test pressings, acetates etc. 95% of my regular vinyl collection are comprised of all first pressings/masters (I always check the dead wax, and wear cotton anti-static gloves while doing so) So please add me to your watch list, as I will have many more high quality items for sale.
My father used to be a DJ, so I have been immersed in the music industry all my life. If for any reason you believe I deserve less than 100% positive feedback, please contact me before you leave it and I will resolve any issue you may have had. My aim to make this into a business, therefore I want to provide excellent product, service, and an overall pleasurable transaction for you. Thank you, evanashley84.
GRADING
This record is still SEALED NEVER OPENED/USED (on the back the plastic seal has a rip in it see pics.. it does not affect the media in any way) , therefore I cannot grade the media (see pics). I can only assume that it is [NM+]. I never use [M] to grade records, or most anything. Nothing is perfect. It is definitely fit for any Audiophile/collector. I have posted all the pics that eBay will allow. I want you to see what you are (hopefully) purchasing. Please ask any questions that you may have. I welcome them, and will answer them to the best of my ability (and as promptly as possible).
