MikesListeningBooth 😀  If you'd like to hear MP3 samples of the actual LP listed, please let me know and I can send you a private link. I play all my vinyl in full as part of grading and also record/convert to hi-res MP3. 

 

Great condition all round and especially for a 39 year old vinyl 

Unusual colouring to the Translucent Vinyl, which appears Green-Brown under LED lighting and Red-Brown under standard lighting. 

 

Condition: 

Please read and remember this is a 39 year old vintage item 😀 pics and grading are honest so please look. 

Graded VERY CRITICALLY under VERY bright spotlight + test play. Pics show item under bright spotlights. 

Vinyl Surfaces EX

Moderate hairlines, a few more noticable light scratches and a 'ring' scratch around 1/2 of one track, but doesn't affect play.  

Great Sheen

Excellent pressing and great sound quality.

Colours and printed text all perfect 

Tiny amount of wear on spindle holes 

Outer Sleeve EX 

Front and back covers great, no major marks, no major creases, no rips. 

Virtually no spine wear, small area of crushing on spine. 

Little to no edge wear. 

No splits or rips. 

 

Vinyl Care/Preparation

I hand-clean every vinyl listed using L'Arc Du Son cleaning solution. 

This removes old grease, dust etc. to improve the playback quality. This does sometimes leave residue marks, but these don't affect play. 

Once cleaned, I 'buff' the Vinyl using a very soft cleaning-cloth, then place it into an anti-static black sleeve. 

This sleeve is supplied with the Vinyl you buy. 

I also carefully clean and dry the Vinyl outer sleeves to remove old finger marks, dirt and dust. Once done the sleeves are placed into a PVC sleeve to keep them nice and clean, they are shipped with the plastic sleeve. 

Vinyls are then listened to end-to-end before grading, in order to make sure they don't skip etc. BEWARE VISUAL-ONLY GRADINGS...some Vinyls that look Near Mint to the eye have skips, others that look marked play near-perfectly. I've learned that you can't grade a Vinyl without listening to it :) 

All of the above is done to help buyers be sure of what they are getting before they spend hard-earned money

 

 

Shipping 

Usually within 2 Days, sometimes a bit longer if I'm very busy (Part time sole trader) Please ignore the stated 10 days, this is to avoid eBay late shipment penalties which lower my performance level and impact the prices and service I can provide to buyers. 

Well packaged in appropriate protective packaging

Vinyl removed from inner and securely packed during shipping to prevent splits 

Combined shipping always - please ask 

l don't make money on shipping but eBay and PayPal do charge full fees on shipping costs so I have to factor this in 😀
