What you're looking at: Early pressing of this classic! When I got the LP, it was sealed in a plastic binder from a public library. The cover is tip top -- couldn't find a better one unless it were sealed. The vinyl is also top condition with only some light paper scuffs. Overall, this thing has been in a time capsule -- don't miss this copy.
How it stacks up:
RECORD: VG++ (9.0 of 10) Solid player! Deep grooves, RVG Etchings, Lexington and 63rd labels, no trademark. Solid vinyl, heavy and in fantastic shape. Some very light paper scuffs, but nothing more. It plays fantastic.
SLEEVE: VG++ (9.5 of 10) You won't find a better cover. Crisp corners, gloss perfect, and the white on the back pops.
ATTENTION: I am now pleased to say that all records are vacuum cleaned prior to shipping!!
MY GRADING SCALE:
OK, my goal is to be as specific as I can without being too wordy. I give one of these (from worst to best): G, VG-, VG, VG+, VG++. That's it. No more letters, thus VG++ is an amazing record.
NM, and M, do NOT exist in this grading scale.
AFTER THE GENERAL GRADING SCALE, I have a number, which is meant to be more specific. I find that a number is more specific than a general opinion. This is meant to give you a more-specific idea of what you are getting into audio-quality wise.
- I play with a customized Thorens TD 165 with a Denon 103 MM cartridge (YEAH!!) through Polk Speakers and a Pioneer receiver.
RETURNS: I do offer a TWO week grace period for returns (that means the buyer pays shipping to me). I give plenty of chances to see what you’re buying (audio clips if you wish, emails, two part grading system and a full policy description) and, as I see it, the buyer has as much responsibility as the seller to a) know what they are buying and b) have the decency to ask prior to purchase.
US COMBINED SHIPPING: I charge a flat rate of $4 for one record, which covers postage, plastic sleeves, replacement inserts, shipping boxes, etc … If you purchase more, it is $1 extra for each record.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I do ship overseas, but CHECK THE QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING!!
I hope this answers all questions and concerns; however, if it doesn’t, EMAIL ME. Cheers!
