Philips 835 198 LY HI-FI STEREO Made in Holland - Bach - Sonate n.1 / Partita n.1 - Grumiaux
Cover: EX; some discolouration, very light wear around opening, tape residue back cover. No splits, no bumped corners
Vinyl: EX+; few very light small stains on the vinyl, 95% NM- playing, some very light noises from time to time. Believe a good deep cleaning might turn this into a NM- throughout experience, but can't promise.... Anyhow a great account and even in this condition a thorough pleasure to listen to
Standard Postage:
Less than 2 kg (average up to 6 records): Europe $15; outside Europe $30
Due to the pandemic, rates for shipping have gone up significantly, except DHL. For this service I need your email address however. I hope you don't mind providing it

I grade visually and (partly) play grade whenever in doubt. Stereo issues on a Linn LP12 with a Lyra Delos cartridge. Mono issues on a Thorens TD135 with a General Electric VRII cartridge; please be aware that this is a true mono Variable Reluctance cartridge, thus playing with a minimum of groove noise and hardly picking up any imperfections that these older mono records frequently have
As I don't have my own professional cleaning equipment, I consider (and recommend) this to the buyer. In my experience records easily gain a grade with professional cleaning
Payment: worldwide - PayPal
Shipping in new solid custom made LP cardboard
Due to an increasing amount of 'non-delivery' parcels in the past, I have no other option than to send with 'Registered - Track & Trace' services only. No exceptions anymore unfortunately, unless you will explicitly wave my responsibility regarding non-delivery. Records over $500 will only be send insured
Finally: in case you don't agree with my ratings or have any other issue with my listing, please contact me and we shall work it out. I will give full refunds (item price + shipping costs), however the shipping costs for sending the item back is for the buyer unless I have made a significant mistake.
