 Nirvana - Damage, Mon Amour - FBD-008

Great sounding collection of live / radio recordings from '89 to '94. Not to be confused with the Black vinyl pressings that are limited to 500. These are limited to 100 copies of the color. This is a new record it has never been played but these do not come sealed! Awesome sound quality!

CONDITION:

Record = NM- New

Label = NM New

Sleeve = NM New

I try to describe spot on, the condition of the sleeve and vinyl or styrene. As well any flaw will be pictured and mentioned. Please remember that most times we are dealing in rare Lps and 45s that are at least a good 30 years old. I am a firm believer that you can find fault with just about any record. Very few make that Near Mint standard that gets thrown around too often. If ever a doubt about a scratch I will play grade and report. I package like no one on eBay. I use more materials and am aware how important it is to ship records outside of covers and with proper outer sleeves for protection. This costs money. In no way do I make money on the shipping. I use brand new outer sleeves, backer boards for 45 / picture sleeves, mailers, filler pads, used outer sleeves to protect corners and if its a really big record I will upgrade to a double box with packing peanuts. Thanks for looking!

 If you are buying more than one record within 7 days, please wait to receive an invoice. We will ship as cost effective as possible unless instructed otherwise. Combined purchase rule does not apply to lots. Thanks.

GRADING SYSTEM:

Mint = Only reserved for Sealed records or store stock new 45s. 10/10 Top Copies

Near Mint =  The record may have been played once or twice on good equipment. Near Mint vinyl should sound and look New when dust is cleaned off and the records played with a properly aligned cartridge and good needle. A Near Mint cover should be one that either looks new or still has the shrink wrap on it. Near Mint is usually reserved for record collectors that don't mind spending premium in order to get the best quality copy of a recording. 9 out of 10

Excellent = 8 out of 10 A record should have maybe one blemish such as fingernail or scuff on the surface that does not affect play. It should be viewed as Near Mint to most collectors, but for the super picky collector such as myself that check them with a 100 watt light bulb before it ever gets played, it is viewed as 8/10.

Very Good ++ = 7 Out of 10. A VG++ record may have a few blemishes on each side and will still play quiet and with High Fidelity.

Very Good + = VG+ is a grade that I use for most lps that have been played a handful of times with care. It may have scratches (should not be feel-able with finger) that DO NOT affect play or some sleeve scuffs from being pulled and played. When put on your record platter a VG+ record should sound great. There should not be overwhelming background noise (when properly cleaned). Pops and Skips from deep scratches are unacceptable.  You should be able to listen to a VG+ record time and time again without listener fatigue. Viewed as a  6 out of 10

Very Good =   A VG record has been played numerous times. They still have lots of life.. These are usually party records that were stacked on top of each other instead of being returned to the sleeve. These may play with background noise but will not hurt your needle. Don't be afraid of surface scratches, your stylus takes the same beating every time it crosses those matrix numbers in the trail off. 5 out of 10. A minus will signify a 4 out of 10.

***PAYMENT - Please pay within 7 days***

 Because of the volume of records we deal in. I ask that customers pay within one week of win or buy it now. Otherwise, the transaction is viewed as a "Change Of Mind" and I will sell it at a different venue. I don't get into the whole negative thing. That will not happen, I simply won't leave feedback. If for some reason you need more time, please let us know. We will work with anyone. I accept Paypal or Email me if you need another option.
