The Carpenters ● 6 x UK Vinyl LP Bundle ● All Play Tested At Least VG+
Time to move on some of my collection of the last 50 years

Happy to combine Postage & Packing if you want to buy more than one of my listings. (Apologies, unable to combine P&P if you utilise the Ebay Global Shipping Option. It will not allow me to do it.)

Over various lockdowns, and now retirement, I have re-played all of my collection and I have graded these as follows:- 

VG+/VG+

The Carpenters The Singles 1974-1978 1978 AMLT19748 UKVinyl - Under bright light displays just a few, very fine, very light surface marks/paper scuffs. Played both sides, all through, & absolutely minimal/zero crackle/background noise. So close to noise free it's really inaudible even in quiet bits/run in/run out. Sounds great! 
Cover - Gold embossed sleeve, 99% wrapped in cellophane, no edge wear visible, very minor corner wear, 2 Price stickers on outside of cellophane on front. 
Inner – Original printed paper advertising other albums
VG+/VG+ Carpenters Ticket To Ride 1972 AMLS 64205 UKVinyl - Under bright light displays only a few, very light, feint, surface marks/paper scuffs/hairlines. Played both sides all through & absolutely minimal, in reality zero, crackle/background noise, inaudible even in quiet bits/run in/run outs. Sounds great! Clean labels. 
Cover - Laminated Picture sleeve, very little edge wear, very minor corner wear. Some minor wrinkles in laminate. A Really solid cover. 
Inner - Plain white paper
VG+/VG+ Carpenters Voice Of The Heart 1983 AMLX64954 UKVinyl - Under bright light hard to see more than a minuscule amount of very light, feintest, surface marks/paper scuffs. Played both sides, all through, & absolutely minimal, so close to zero, crackle/background noise, probably as noise free as vinyl gets. Sounds great! Clean labels. 
Cover - Glossy picture sleeve with some light specks of edge wear all round, just visible corner wear. Little bit of sticker residue on front. 
Inner - Printed White card with lyrics in excellent order
VG+/VG+ Carpenters Made In America 1981 AMLK63723 UK
Vinyl - Under bright light hard to see more than a small amount of very light, feint, surface marks/paper scuffs. Played both sides, all through, & absolutely minimal, approaching zero, crackle/background noise, realistically inaudible even in quiet bits/run in/run outs. Sounds great!. 
Cover - Picture sleeve, some light wear on the spine, otherwise hardly any edge/corner wear. A really good solid cover. 
Inner - Printed card with photo and lyrics in excellent order 
VG+/VG+ Carpenters Lovelines 1989 AMA 3931 UK 0 82839393119Vinyl - Under bright light hard to see more than a minuscule amount of very light, feintest, wispy surface marks/paper scuffs.
