Description
I'm selling some of my personal collection of rare records. Most of them are imports and are the best sounding versions that are available of each album. I have taken good care of my records by putting them in plastic outer sleeves and storing them vertically. I always clean my records with a VPI with Audio Intelligent fluids, sprayed them with an anti static gun and then put them in MoFi inner sleeves. I have always played them on quality audio equipment and have used a carbon fiber brush before each play. However, I am not the original owner of my record collection, so any faults are caused by previous owner(s). Although I'm quite a new seller, I'm a careful record collector and grader. My feedback shows for it.

JOY DIVISION
'UNKNOWN PLEASURES'
This original German pressing rivals the UK pressing for the best sound quality of this album! Some say it has a more balanced, "audiophile" sound to it compared to the UK "Porky prime cut" pressings.

THE VINYL
VISUAL
VG
Scuffy. Has one nasty looking mark that doesn't affect play.
AUDIO
VG (VG is not trash by my standards, unlike other sellers)
Plays with surface noise. A few pops do occur occasionally. Probably was played on a poor setup. Label has fair share of spindle marks.
THE SLEEVE VG+
TEXTURED AND GLOSSY SLEEVE
Printed by - UNCREDITED
Creases along the edges
Corner bumps
One strange, wispy mark on the front cover
THE REST IS VERY NICE WITH NO EDGE WEAR.

ORIGINAL GLOSSY PAPER INNER WITH CREDITS AND SINISTER PHOTO. 2 INCH SEAM SPLIT AT BOTTOM. ERASED WRITING ON FRONT THAT READS "JOY DIVISION !" AND A TRACKLIST TO THE CURE'S ALBUM 'PORNOGRAPHY' (KIND OF STRANGE)
POSTAGE DETAILS:
I ship my records through USPS Media Mail. I use professional record mailers with cardboard stiffeners. I will put the record and inner sleeve outside of the cover to avoid seam splits during shipping.
