I have been a music fan and vinyl enthusiast since the early 1970s and I am selling a large range of records featuring a very wide variety of musical styles. They are all authentic original pressings, featuring quality music mostly from the 1970s and 1980s. They have all been very well cared for, though I will give an honest appraisal of their condition and will put up plenty of photos of the actual items for sale so you can see exactly what you are bidding on. I always endeavour to highlight anything which I think that I would like to be made aware of before deciding to place a bid, so I do tend to grade critically.
All these records are thoroughly deep cleaned using a professionally constructed wet vacuum system using only the highest purity record cleaning fluid so the vinyl is all very clean, glossy and dust free. Everything listed is, at the very least, very thoroughly test played, (a bare minimum of at least 4-5 tracks) though almost always played right through both sides on a quality deck and I apply extremely high standards to my vinyl and would never sell a record that I would not be perfectly happy to have in my own cherished record collection. In the case of rare or particularly interesting vinyls, I may list records which may fall short in some way of my usual standards, but this would always be very clearly highlighted in the descriptions.
I visually inspect every record under very bright light using an inspection lamp.
A note regarding the most important matter of all - the audio - as with all vinyl, even straight out of the cellophane, there can be light crackle or very light 'pops' during the quiet passages. I have listened carefully, at the very least in part, to all these records, so I will highlight in the descriptions any aspects of the audio playback which I consider to be outside the parameters of the very high standards I apply to my own listening. Please be assured that I would never sell 'fried breakfasts', only high quality records.
All records will be supplied to you in a good quality clear outer wallet to protect your sleeves.

OMD - 'The Best of OMD' - original 1988 vinyl album in excellent condition. Matrix reads OMD 1 - A4 / B6.
The vinyl is in lovely glossy condition with only very light superficial hairlines and the odd very light blemish visible in bright light though absolutely nothing which affects the sound and I am listening to the record as I type this, currently side 1 and the brilliant 'Souvenir' and the audio is absolutely exquisite, beautifully crisp and clear and delivering all that characteristic vinyl richness and depth. The synth sound from this absolutely class band currently filling my lounge is beautiful.
The gatefold sleeve features superb monochrome portrait photograph to the front with more photographs adorning the centrefold including really nice full colour thumbnails of the covers to the singles and source material for this brilliant compilation. There is a little light wear to the sleeve commensurate with age, but this smart cover looks really well in its clear protective outer jacket.
This record in a nutshell : A superb compilation featuring 14 brilliant tracks from one of the most distinctive and original bands of the new wave/synth era in excellent condition.
