Direct Disk Labs Super Disk SD 16619
I use the Goldmine/Discogs system for grading.  Look it up if you don't know it.  VG+ is only one grade below NM.  NOTHING gets Mint.  Unless otherwise described, vinyl grades are all visual under a strong light from multiple angles.  I try to grade conservatively.  I DO NOT want anyone forcing returns because something has noise that is not due to an obvious scratch or defect - if I see something like this I will play it and describe accordingly.  A very light scuff does not qualify as an obvious scratch or defect.  Bid accordingly!  I play grade on a high-end system.
Record was cleaned on a VPI and play-graded before listing. 
Both sides are visually M- and play grade is also M-
Jacket is VG+-.  There is a tiny seam split at the top left corner with a wrinkle.  Small wrinkles at the bottom corners, and just a bit of overall wear.
I will consider any offer at or above my listing price, and there is an auto-accept that is not much higher.
I have been collecting audiophile and other records since the late 1980's, and I have many hundreds of audiophile pressings dating back to the original D2D and half-speed labels.  Some relatively obscure, some not so much.  I also have a large number of other open and sealed records.  There are many things from the late 80's and early 90's when vinyl was "dead", and a lot of Record Store Day items.  I am reducing my collection.  My current focus is on selling sealed items, but I have many used as well that I will sell.  I will be listing some every week.  If there is anything in particular you are looking for, particularly audiophile or RSD, feel free to let me know, and maybe I will list it.  All records have been stored upright on shelves in air conditioning since I got them.
I am shipping USPS Priority Mail as the USPS has the right to open and inspect anything Media Mail and I don't trust that. It will cost me more than I am charging you - I am fine with that.  Anything over $100 will get some extra insurance at my expense.  I will combine shipping on multiple records, so please wait for an invoice if you win multiple items.   I ship everything in a purpose-made record shipper, wrapped with bubble wrap, corners internally reinforced with cardboard as needed, and packed tightly.  Open items are shipped with the record removed from the jacket to avoid a seam split.
I appreciate positive feedback - if you leave it for me after receiving your purchase I will leave it for you.  And if you have ANY issues PLEASE contact me before filing a complaint with ebay.
NO INTERNATIONAL SALES!!  I will ship to Alaska and Hawaii but shipping cost will be increased.
