IDLE RACE TIME IS (REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL)

	£		128
	$		170

Hi, I am Steve,I am an avid record collector and have been collecting records for about thirty years now and have reached the point where I have to rationalize my collection on the grounds of space at home.I have sold many lps on ebay and have a 100% feedback score.All my records for auction have been play graded by myself, listening to the whole record, as visual grading only tells part of the story.I will always try to describe all faults as clearly as possible.

All records for auction are play graded on my cherished system which is made up of the following; Linn Sondek Lp12 with Transfiguration Aria high quality moving coil cartridge, running into a full blown Naim Audio amplication set up, ending up with the awesome Linn Isobarik speakers being driven actively with THREE Naim NAP250 power amps!Believe me,if theres a fault with any of my vinyl, I will get to hear it!   I am a very critical listener who loves Opera on vinyl (a potential minefield for quality playback) so I will describe my records for auction as if I were to be the buyer.I will mention any defects small ,(or large ,unlikely as I avoid selling anything that I am not happy to listen to myself).

You can safely be assured that my records play without jumps, skips and have no writing on covers or labels unless clearly stated to the contrary.

PLEASE READ ALL MY ITEM DETAILS AND TERMS/CONDITIONS LISTED BELOW AND GOOD LUCK IF YOU DECIDE TO BID AND THANKYOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO VIEW MY AUCTION,CHEERS STEVE.
