Description
First press, MONO -- it is an amazing sounding record. I love it. ... does have some gentle bruising, but this sounds amazing.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (8.0 of 10) First MONO press; DG, Bergenfield address; RVG Stamps. So this LP has a some dull whisps ... but I must be clear they are all dull. I tried to photograph to show the surfaceness of them. So the grading is slightly conservative, for visuals. Heavier press also. In the end, expect to see some dull marks here or there ... but the sheen is there, everything is superficial, and it sound fantastic. I fully endorse this one.
COVER: VG+ (9.2 of 10) Beautiful jacket. One super shade from being a tip top jacket. There's a light bow and one small bit of chipping on a corner. Otherwise ... amazing. Look how white that back is! _______ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via AT MM cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: Free anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do try to describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction

- SUPPLEMENTAL CONDITION NOTE: So there's quite a bit of interest for this one, and I think I should flag the playback condition a bit more. The LP does in fact sound amazing. That said, I forgot to need to mention that it isn't perfect. There will be a small pop here or there, or perhaps a small crackle occasionally, but in general terms it is a solid player. Not perfect, but still very clean. I stand by the grading, but I just wanted to flesh out the condition a bit more since I had a question about it.
