BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN 6-LP Box Set THE GRANDE FINALE Live

$

223

Up for auction is the extremely rare and fabulous 1986 German Import Not Guilty Records 6-LP Box Set, long out-of-print, desscribed by the Bruce Springsteen Collector's Guide III as:

"one of the nicest box sets ever made"

featuring:

 BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

and The E Street Band

 performing live in concert in Los Angeles, California on Ocotber 2, 1985, the very last show of the 1984-1985 BUSA Tour, with 8 songs from two earlier LA shows, entitled:

 THE GRANDE FINALE 

This is a super high-quality concert recording, and a box set, to boot.

  The set includes 2 booklets and 2 promo photos.  One booklet gives the details for this box set (see the group photo), and the other very ambitiously lists and rates all of the other live LP releases from the entire 1984-1985 tour, a reference work in itself! (Depicted in the individual booklet photos). 

The very commercial-looking box shows but minor wear, and the LPs themselves are in MINT condition, pressed on multicolored vinyl, which identifies this as not just one of the original Not Guilty pressings, but as one of the first 100 made! 

This is a rare, super-cool, and extraordinarily  valuable Bruce Springsteen collectible, which I have saved until near the end of my rare Bruce LP listings. 

This one would make a great and unusual Christmas gift for the Bruce collector or fan on your shopping list who thinks he or she has everything! 

The LPs have been played once, and one-time only, in order to tape the music onto a high-quality cassette.  As with all of my Bruce and other LP rarities, the LPs were re-placed into  their original paper sleeves to preserve every precious

note.

This LP SET is a single-owner item, purchased new years ago and carefully stored under controlled conditions since.  No wonder it looks (and more importantly sounds) so good!  

Benefit from my compulsive pack-ratting habits!

Low opening bid, and best of all, no reserve.

I am a long-time music lover/collector, quickly running out of storage space in a non-smoking home. Over the years, I’ve accumulated quality LPs, tapes and CDs of the highest quality.   The time is overdue to find some of them loving new homes.

I’m not trying to squeeze every last dollar out of them, as demonstrated by the low opening price and lack of a reserve, and when they’re gone, they’re gone!

LPs, Tapes and CDs will be carefully packaged and shipped. LPs all have new protective Polypro jacket covers, and will be shipped in stiff and safe corrugated cardboard LP boxes designed for just that purpose.   What good is it to preserve something for years, and then subject it to damage in the shipping process? Ordinarily, shipping by USPS, media rate, which keeps the costs down.

I prefer Paypal, and I am willing to absorb the commission to make the purchase experience as painless for the buyer as possible.  Money orders and checks are also acceptable, but will necessitate a wait on delivery until payment confirmation.  Payment in US dollars only, please, and for non-US bidders, Paypal only, and e-mail me after the auction so that we can jointly determine the fair cost of your preferred shipping method.

Satisfaction guaranteed!  Returns within 14 days of purchase. If the item does not match the rating and description, full refund and all shipping costs will be refunded without a peep.  If you must return an item for any other reason, I will refund the purchase price and original shipping costs, with the purchaser to bear only the cost and responsibility of getting the item back to me in the condition in which it was shipped.

Thanks for checking out this listing.
