Click on "Me" for additional shipping information, comments, policy and some personal observations.

Titled The Beatles The Collection, this amazing limited numbered box set of fourteen albums was released in 1982 by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, each record pressed from a master stamper at the Victor Company Of Japan (JVC) plant in Japan on 100% virgin vinyl. The records in this set are immaculate. Owner says he played each record once. I visually inspected each disc, thirteen appear virtually like new mint and one has minuscule handling scuffs on one side. I only spot play checked several albums and they qualified as superb near mint and am basing my over all grade as visual. I am in process of professionally machine cleaning each disc with my VPI vacuum record cleaning machine. Each record comes in mint numbered jacket with heavy gage cardboard insert folds and is in high density lined inner sleeve. Box includes gorgeous 40 page booklet with color graphic artwork and detailed information of each album Booklet has minor wear on cover with spine showing wear, center is separated from inside staples but is intact and clean and includes Certificate Of Authenticity Limited Edition Number 5694. Box still contains original Geo-Disc in original jacket and Certificate Of Limited Warranty. Box is near mint with felt bottom attached and two minor corner blemishes at top back edge. Please review photos. I'm listing this amazing box set to sell, with no reserve and an opening bid well under market value. Guaranteed as described and winner is obligated for shipping cost (Priority Mail) and I will require full insurance coverage. Item will be packaged professionally in sturdy box with support. I will not skimp on packaging to save a few cents on shipping cost. Thank you.

RECORD GRADING LP'S
I place emphasis on play grade, maintain the highest professional standards, do spot check play grading on all individual auction items and always provide an accurate visual grade and label appearance. I play grade on a quality system with a high end cartridge in order to maintain a strict and undisguised play grade. I always keep my grading simple and fair and will not subject my customers to a proliferation of meaningless grades. If a record plays between two grades I always apply the lesser grade, I don't create a grade in an attempt to articulate a borderline evaluation.
nm....near mint, superb play quality with little to no signs of visual wear and plays with little to no extraneous noise. I have learned from over 30 years of experience that "mint" is too strong a grade for a used record evaluation. The only records that qualify for a "mint" grade on my listings are my new unplayed and unhandled store stock items.
vg+...very good plus, excellent play quality with minor use and little to no overall visual wear. Any minor scuffs, light surface scratches, or blemishes do not affect play and play grade may have some very minor extraneous area noise.
vg....very good, very playable, probably with some extraneous surface noise. A slightly mishandled or well used record. May have visual scratches or blemish. I generally do not auction vg albums unless they are exceptional pieces and highly sought after items.

I use standard record grading abbreviations and include cover grade within each description. I open, clean and inspect all suspect sealed older albums.
