Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

Here's an 'Extreme Rarity'. This Test Pressing is a four-record set of the 2011 reissue of '...And Justice For All" that was released as part of the '45 RPM Series'. These Test Pressings were for the Limited Edition version on green vinyl. These Test Pressings are on black vinyl. No more than 25 Test Pressings of this set were made. Pressed at Pallas in Germany. These four 45 RPM, 12" records have never been played. Made on April 6, 2011. The date is printed on the sleeve labels. Each record is in a poly-lined sleeve.
Each record ships in a generic, white board cover. These are one-owners that the Seller got new from Pallas in 2011. They have been in storage for 8 years. Shipping charges include insurance.
