N.B. PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT BEFORE YOU RECEIVE AN INVOICE FROM US!
N.B. please note that this item ships from Cape Town, South Africa. Shipping is therefore NOT as
stated by ebay:
**worldwide shipping for this item via Registered Airmail

I grade conservatively. Grading for vinyl is VG-/ VG/ VG+/ NM and sealed.
I do not use “EX”, but my equivalent grade is VG++.
I only offer trashed or unplayable records for auction if they are exceptionally rare.
**** Customers should be aware that funds paid into PayPal can take up to a week to clear through
the South African banking system. Since I am not a business with the money in hand to ship items right away,
I can therefore only post items once I am able to draw PayPal payments as cash on this end from my local bank.
However, goods are shipped immediately once payment has been cleared and withdrawn as cash. Please keep
this in mind when leaving feedback.****
Jim Reeves LOT of two RCA Victor South African LPs:
Jy Is My Liefling + Kimberley Jim
-- cat #s Jy Is My Liefling: Popular 31,671
& Kimberley Jim: Popular 31,777
-- RCA Victor, South Africa
VINYL:
-- Visually (under bright light):
– Jy Is My Liefling. Appears to have been gently played only. A few spindle marks
on both labels. A few ultra-fine sleeve-removal-type scuff marks, and a few ultra-fine hairline scratches, but the overall impression is very favourable. The vinyl looks
clean, with only minimal signs of wear and handling. A real find in this condition.
-- Audio:
– Play grades as VG++ and better.
– LP plays right through. No 'skips', 'jumps', or 'sticks'.
-- Kimberley Jim. This has been played more frequently than Jy Is My Liefling.
Several spindle marks on both labels. Many ultra-fine sleeve-removal-type scuff
marks, and many mostly ultra-fine hairline scratches.
– Audio:
– Play grades between VG+ and VG++
– Despite evidence of wear in places, the sound is still good. The vocals are clear,
and the music is to the forefront.
– LP plays right through. No 'skips', 'jumps', or 'sticks'.
COVER:
-- The main flaw with the cover for Jy Is My Liefling is that there is a small area of corner damage (a tear) to the bottom right hand corner. This damage was not
immediately noticeable to me.
-- Scuffing, and general wear. Some slight wear to the opening. However, despite such minor flaws, the cover is still very well preserved for its age.
It still looks fairly clean, and the colours are still bright. The lettering on the spine
is still perfectly legible. No seam splits, writing, or stickers. The cover is intact and
fully functional. Given the above, I would grade the cover for Jy Is My Liefling
as Very Good.
-- The cover for Kimberley Jim also has scuffing and general wear. However, like the
cover for Jy Is My Liefling, it also looks well preserved for its age. It has slight creasing,
scuffing, general wear. However, it still looks fairly clean and the colours are still bright.
The lettering on the spine is still perfectly legible. No seam splits, writing or stickers.
Cover is intact and fully functional.
--– The main flaw with the cover for Kimberly Jim, is that there is 'feathering' to the opening. There is also slight damage to the back of the flip back sleeve (at the top.)
– The cover for Kimberly Jim is in Good or Very Good condition, depending on
your criteria.
