This auction is for a complete set of twelve 10" EPs that comprised the Lactamase series of 10" records released in numbered editions of 500 copies between 2001 and 2003, PLUS it includes the bonus 13th EP, for a total of 13 records. All records are black vinyl versions.
Each 10" included a coupon. If you collected all 12 records in the series (from Tony Conrad/Edward Ka-Spel, Rick Reed, Stimulus, Aranos, Miroslaw Rajkowski, Vas Deferens Organization, Noise-maker's Fifes, Volcano The Bear, Charalambides, Troum, Whitelodge and Coil), you were able to submit all 12 coupons (1 collected in each of the records) and receive the bonus 10" as number 13 in the Lactamase series, which includes a track from each of the above contributing artists.  The cover of the bonus record has a coupon to order a special split vinyl release by Stimulus and White Lodge.
All 13 records are in excellent all around condition.  Not all of them include all of the inserts, since some of the inserts needed to be sent in to get the 13th volume.  Most of them were played just once, and a couple of the jackets have slight bend marks or small corner compressions.  The Coil release, and also the bonus 13th volume, are both unplayed and complete, although they do show some light signs of handling (light bend marks to the Coil insert and fingerprints on the black jacket of the bonus record).  The Coil record included here is a second copy, and I just never got around to playing the bonus record.
I've resumed downsizing my personal collection to prepare for an upcoming move.  Due to the volume of items I have to sell, I'll be limiting the information that I provide in the listings but will do my best to answer any particular questions you may have. All items come from a clean smoke free home.
Any used items I am selling I have always handled carefully and played on very good equipment. I'll do my best to describe any damage or imperfections, but will typically only be able to provide a visual inspection.
For used CDs and cassettes, I don't rate the condition of the cases if they are standard plastic replaceable ones, but I won't ship a cracked or damaged case.
For used vinyl only a visual inspection will be done to identify any significant surface flaws.
