THE RECORDS

THE LABELS
THE ORANGE VERTIGO LABELS ARE IN MINT CONDITION . THE COLOURS ARE ALL RICH AND VIBRANT AND THERE IS NO RUBBING.
THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNRUBBED AND EVEN USING A MAGNIFYING GLASS I CANNOT SEE ANY SPIDER LINES WHATSOEVER
-
THE VINYL
IN DAYLIGHT THESE RECORDS LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION DISC ONE IS STILL FLAWLESS, WHILST DISC TWO HAS A TINY NON SOUNDING SCUFF AND A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES
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
-
I DECIDED TO PLAY THIS PREVIOUSLY UNPLAYED SET JUST BECAUSE UNPLAYED DOESN'T GUARANTEE A MINT REPRODUCTION. I DO GUARANTEE HOWEVER THAT MY ONE CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL GO UNDETECTED
-
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON ALL SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER
-
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO LOUD CLICKS ANYWHERE
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND JUST THE ODD RANDOM SECOND OF STATIC HEARD IN THE RUN IN GROOVES
-
I CAN'T EVEN SAY THAT I HEARD ANY MORE THAN 3-4 TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT MINUS!!!
PLEASE DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
