UNPLAYED VINYL - APART FROM MY TEST PLAY.

LISTED IN THE USED CATEGORY ONLY TO DIFFERENTIATE FROM NEW RE ISSUES - ORIGINAL ISSUE UNLESS STATED.

PART OF A VERY RARE FIND FROM AN OLD CLOSED DOWN RECORD SHOP THAT USED TO RETAIL ONLY NEW VINYLS. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE RARITY OF THIS AND OTHER ALBUMS I WILL BE LISTING FROM THE SAME LOT. THE ALBUMS HAVE BEEN STORED AWAY, UNTOUCHED FOR 30 TO 40 YEARS OR MORE.     LIKELY TO BE THE ONLY UNPLAYED COPY OF THIS ALBUM ON EBAY - APART FROM MY TEST PLAY.

SOME SLEEVES MAY HAVE LIGHT STORAGE WEAR BUT WILL BE MENTIONED IN THE DESCRIPTION FURTHER ON IF THERE IS ANY AT ALL.

THE VINYLS ARE GUARANTEED UNPLAYED APART FROM MY TEST PLAY.

I HAVE LOTS OF THESE TO LIST IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS INCLUDING MANY A1/B1 FIRST PRESSINGS.

BEAUTIFUL CLEAN VINYL READY TO PLACE ON YOUR TURNTABLE AND ENJOY.

IF A "BEST OFFER" IS ADDED TO THE LISTING, I WILL REVIEW ANY OFFERS WITHIN 36 HOURS DUE TO WORK COMMITMENTS. PLEASE BEAR IN MIND AND TO AVOID ANY DISAPPOINTMENT, THAT THE ITEM CAN STILL BE BOUGHT AT FULL PRICE DURING THAT TIME OR A HIGHER OFFER MAY BE SUBMITTED BY ANOTHER BUYER.

I VISUALLY INSPECT THE VINYLS UNDER A HALOGEN TEST LAMP THAT SHOWS THE TINIEST OF MARKS THAT WOULD NOT NORMALLY BE VISIBLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT - I CAN PICK UP LIGHT MARKS AND HAIRLINES ON ALMOST ANY NEW VINYL WITH MY TEST LAMP WHICH HAVE NO EFFECT ON PLAY AND ARE NOT NOTICEABLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT IN ALMOST ALL CASES. I AM USUALLY OVER CRITICAL WITH MY GRADINGS AS I VALUE MY FEEDBACK AND WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE. ALL ARE TEST PLAYED AND ALL STRICTLY GRADED TO THE RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING GUIDE. IF ANY ARE BETWEEN GRADES, I WILL GRADE DOWN RATHER THAN UP. PLEASE SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR GUIDE.

A NOTE ABOUT HAIRLINES: HAIRLINES ARE TINY WISPY MARKS THAT CAN BE DETECTED ON ALMOST ANY NEW VINYL UNDER HALOGEN LIGHT, ARE NOT AUDIBLE AND HAVE NO EFFECT ON PLAYING QUALITY. ARE PRESENT FROM WHEN THE VINYLS COME OFF THE PRODUCTION LINE AND ARE SLEEVED. ARE NOT NORMALLY VISIBLE UNDER NORMAL DAYLIGHT.

I TAKE GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN ENSURING YOU RECEIVE EXACTLY WHAT IS DESCRIBED.

VINYLS ARE PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED ON A MOTH RCM PRO TO REMOVE ANY FINE PARTICLES FROM THE INNER SLEEVES THAT MAY HAVE ACCUMULATED OVER THE YEARS, LEAVING A BEAUTIFUL CLEAN PLAYING SURFACE READY TO PLACE ON YOUR TURNTABLE.

P&P COSTS INCLUDE A STRONG, SLIGHTLY OVERSIZED CUSTOM MADE, FOLDING BOX-STYLE RECORD MAILER WITH 2 ADDED STIFFENER BOARDS. THE VINYL IS REMOVED FROM THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE FOR DISPATCH, PLACED IN A NEW INNER AND PACKED EXTERNALLY TO THE MAIN SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY DAMAGE DURING SHIPPING. ALL ARE HOUSED IN A NEW POLYTHENE OUTER SLEEVE.       I DO NOT PROFIT FROM P&P AND ONLY CHARGE WHAT IT COSTS ME OR LESS IN MOST CASES.

THANKS FOR LOOKING

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:   " The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.  The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.  The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.  The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.  The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.  The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.  The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
