FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING
Powered by eCommercePlayer.com Powered by eCommercePlayer.comTHE BUGGLES - THE AGE OF PLASTIC
IN MAGNIFICENT ONE PLAY MINT MINUS!!! CONDITION
NEAR MINT SLEEVE AND INNER
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE BLUE ISLAND LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE NEXT TO IT
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS FLAWLESS, AND ONLY WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION ARE THERE A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES VISIBLE, PLUS SOME SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES
THE TEST PLAY
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
ISLAND/CHRYSALIS VINYL USUALLY HAS A LITTLE VINYL NOISE DUE TO THE PRESSING BUT THIS ONE HAS NONE.
THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT AND ALL I HEARD DURING THE PLAY WERE A COUPLE OF TINY SPECKS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND
I HEARD JUST ONE TINY LITTLE TIC
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO MINT MINUS
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED GLOSSY SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. THE DEEP COLOURS ARE ALL UNRUBBED
THE LAMINATE HAS NO LIFT, PEEL OR FLAKE
THERE ARE TWO TINY PRESSURELINES 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 AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE
THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE BOTH IMMACULATE WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR RUNNING FULLY FROM CORNER TO CORNER
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. THE TOP TIP HAS A TINY DING
THE OPENING EDGE IS VERY SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE. THERE IS JUST A SPECK OF FEATHERING
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN THE SAME MAGNIFICENT CONDITION AS THE FRONT, WITH JUST ONE TINY PRESSURE LINE NEAR THE SPINE
THE LAMINATED CARD PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO MARKS OR STAINS.
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
