CONDITION (VINYL/COVER): EX/EX. Vinyl is very clean with a nice dark sheen. Tilted to light Side One shows a few very light hairlines/brushing lines. Played in its entirety tonight on my budget deck. Sits perfectly flat on the turntable. Sounds Excellent. Plays clean, clear and loud throughout. "The Battle Of Evermore", plays really vibrant and clear. " Stairway To Heaven" has the lightest trace of background sound in the early and final vocal/guitar passages only. Side 2 plays pretty much immaculately throughout including "Going To California". Cover is firm and square and has only light edgewear, light cornerwear and light creasing. Very clean inside of gatefold and excellent shape retained to spine which has negligible wear. Delicate printed inner is fully intact with splits to all 3 edges and "285" printed to one corner only. Only one tear to top edge instead of the usual heavy feathering. Super clean labels- check out the photos. No writing, rips, stickers or sticker tears.
GRADING SYSTEM: I use UK’s “Record Collector” Grading system. MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface mark or deterioration in the sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in the sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover, or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound has noticably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc. I will at times use a + or - to indicate when a record falls between the grades.
I am just starting to sell off my very extensive record collection, built up over 40 years. I have many rarities in fantastic condition from many genres including blues, punk, metal, britpop, progressive, kraut, classic and hard rock. Almost all of the records i list will be in at least VG+ condition. The only exceptions would be some extremely rare records. PLEASE ADD ME TO YOUR FAVORITE SELLERS LIST.
