Howdy from Sheriffs Records!

And welcome to my record auctions. I pride myself on listing only the finest items. Collectability and Quality are the keywords. I have 20 years of experience selling high-end items all over the world to near 100% customer satisfaction. Grading is an art form that is to be taken very seriously, especially when it comes to high-priced items.

All records on sale have been fully playtested and are guaranteed to not have playback defects such as skips, sticks, excessive surface noise and/or serious degrading in audioquality (not part of the original pressing).

 

I am shipping from the Netherlands, not from the UK. Thank you.

Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left // Orig UK 1969 Pink Island LP Nice Copy

 

Label/Cat#:  ISLAND ILPS 9105

Matrix: A//2 + B//2 (Philips cutting)


The Record: EX- (actually looks better, there are just a few non-felt surface marks, HOWEVER, playback is quite noisy overall, nearly every track has a moment of repeated clicks, the worst tracks are s1t1-3, audio itself without the vinyl noise is actually fine, thus priced accordingly) 

The Labels: EX- 

The Sleeve VG (presentable but with some obvious issues on the front and back, spine readable, no inner)


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We use the Record Collectors Grading system with just one + or – behind the grade. Mint minus is the highest grade we will use for *any* used item. Records are critically viewed under strong halogen light. 

Mint (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable

Good (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.


The record will be packed carefully in a thick sturdy package with record behind the sleeve.
