Description
And here it is ladies and gentlemen. The real deal ... not negotiating price, and it's a take-it-or-leave-it situation. ... so read up.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (7.5 of 10) OG Prestige press, 50th address, RVG hand etch in runout, Deep Groove press. And overall, it should rate higher ... there is one issue. One scratch on aide A, track 2 causes light ticking for probably 40 seconds ... quite light, but I wanted everyone to be aware. There are maybe 2 other light scratches. So be aware of those blemishes. But those are really the only issues. Overall, this vinyl is in beautiful shape. Side B is in pretty close to top shape ... like it looks, and plays, really nice.
COVER: VG+ (9.0 of 10) This thing right here ... beautiful gloss. Corners are pretty sharp, really no seam wear. Strong spine. It had 4" of splitting on top seam, but I repaired it with a seamzeasy strip (google these if you don't know what they are -- they're pretty amazing). So no splitting now. Back barely has any aging at all.
_________________________________________________________________ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
