Northern Soul-Groovettes-Reness-Think It Over Baby

$

1,000

The Groovettes on the Reness label doing Think It Over Baby/Ain't A Thing You Can Do About It in VG to VG+ condition (EX to EX- by UK grading standards) for both sides. The authentic single shows mostly full gloss and plays very well with only minimal noise in the quiet passages. (Please see my grading system below this description.) The labels are mostly clean with moderate ring wear and light staining (Please see the scan). I sold a similar copy last December on Ebay for over $2000. This copy sold for almost the same amount recently, but came back as it did not quite meet the buyer's criteria for condition. So, here it is again with a reasonable starting bid and no reserve. Please email me for an mp3 to judge the quality of sound for yourself. (Include your email address.) I always offer a complete money back guarantee immediately if not completely satisfied. Please read my feedbacks. (Thank you all.) You may not see this single available again for a long time. I will split half the cost of global express shipping to the winning bidder. Thanks for looking.

I use the following grading system by US standards:

M(10) PERFECT! Label, vinyl, sound, all perfect…

M-(9) Maybe a few smudges, some very fine sleeve marks, etc. All glossy vinyl. Label pretty. Sounds great!! (sleeve marks are those tiny scratches with no effect on sound)

Ex+(8) or Vg++(8) A few sleeve marks or a few fine scratches, label still nice. Good gloss. appears-- still sounds great!! UK: EX+

Vg+(7) Probably lots of sleeve marks, OR several fine scratches, OR one or two more serious scratches, OR scuffs. Some gloss. Label is still real nice! Possibly a bit of dirt on it, etc. Overall, a fine copy. No noticeable record noise. UK:EX

Vg(6) It has sleeve marks AND: numerous very fine scratches, or a few more serious scuffs. Still nice looking overall. May be noise in quiet passages, but still sounds good! Still some gloss. Label is beginning to show signs of wear, but not serious. UK: Ex-, Or VG++.

Vg-(5) LOTS of fine scratches and almost no gloss. OR a few serious scratches, OR scuffed. Label is possibly worn. Plays with noise which doesn’t overwhelm the music. Gloss is possible, if the scratches are bad enough.UK: VG+

G+(4) COMPLETELY covered with fine scratches, OR a mix of fine and serious scratches or other defects. Label may be pretty trashed, but is generally readable. Plays with hiss, crackle or distortion, but not awful. UK:VG

G-(3) A filler. LOTS of serious scratches, definitely some audible. Noise is more prominent than the music. Label is BARELY readable. BUT: it plays ok… UK: VG- Between G and F

F(2) Almost unacceptable. Plays through. Label seriously worn. UK: G

P(1) POOR Gots lotsa scratches, scratches, scratches etc. I will NEVER list one like this.
