Description
From my PERSONAL Collection - bought used - and just played on my Denon turntable.
I rate/price LPs on sound mostly - then cover, inserts, LP sleeve, etc. I care about the sound the most.
I'm listing my entire LP Collection, about 60 left (including Quad), as I record them. Look out for new listings.
Some very rare ones indeed!

LP Sleeve: Original LP sleeves - VG. Notes on sound below:
Side #1: A bit of surface noise and pops here and there, but mostly in very quiet parts. A better cleaning could clear up this side. Side #2: Same as side #1. Side #3: Very little surface noise throughout. A few pops, but in very quiet parts. Side #4: Same as side #3. Side #5: Starts out with noticeable surface noise for the first few minutes, then quiets down for the rest of the side. Side #6: Way quieter than Side #5, but still a few clicks/pops here and there, but mostly in very quiet parts. Side #7: Very little surface noise, mostly in very quiet parts, except for the middle of the "The Rio Grande", then it quiets down again. Side #8: Pops/clicks here and there, but nothing to detract from the music.....
LPs have been cleaned, play tested, sleeved. I pack carefully and ship in a new or used, but in good shape, LP mailer.
These results are on my equipment. You may or may not hear the same.
I deal on multiple LPs - contact me.
