Countdown to Ecstasy
ABC Records 

1975 pressing.
Runout Side A, etched (except "⧈-G-⧈" stamped)): AB 779 A W1 ⧈-G-⧈
Runout Side B, etched (except "⧈-G-⧈" stamped)): AB 779 B W1  3 ⧈-G-⧈

Cover has a gold stamp that says "Platinum Plus" with the MCA catalog number MCA-37041. The year of release is listed as 1973 on the record label. Supposedly "Platinum Plus" issues used old warehouse 1973 copies of the album before 1980 pressings were used, but this runoff indicates Gloversville?
Original MCA inner sleeve. No markings.  No warp, skips of scratches.

You are bidding/purchasing on the item in the  auction title. You will receive the exact  record and cover as  photoed.  Please take a good look at the  photos so that you can judge the  condition of this item. Feel  free to ask me  questions  about  this item or  request additional  photos. 

These records are from a 60+ year-old private collection, 1950’s through1990’s.  Please browse my other offerings regularly as I will be  posting about 1,000 Lps and  45s in the  coming months.

ALL ARE ORIGINAL RECORDS I PURCHASED AT THE TIME OF THEIR RELEASE. 

They may have minor wear or small  defects as expected. Any major defects such as  warps or scratches are noted. These  offerings  have not been professionally cleaned  (ultrasonic  or electrosonic).

To liquidate this collection, I am pricing the records VERY CHEAP!

I  make no representation as to how  the  record or cover will grade. 

ANY GRADING IN MY LISTINGS IS JUST  MY  UNPROFESSIONAL OPINION  (based on visible inspection).

Using  Goldmine standards,  I  would  conservatively  estimate at  least a “VG” grade for the  record  itself and “VG” grade for the  cover but may be  better. 

You  will have to judge  for  yourself.  All items are priced very  low.

Records are not in  cases  but are  safely packed in sturdy mailers, and  quickly mailed USPS as soon  as  payment is received.

I am  committed to making this a great bargain  purchase  experience for you  anyway  I can. 

Thank you for looking!
