CUSTOMER UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2022
For the past 2 years GG_Supersounds has been listing records that in the main are in Mint or very close to it condition. We continue to track down and list the very best records that we are able to for our ever growing customer base For those that have been with us over that period of time will know that there are two business partners listing on the site. One from Horsham and the other from Bognor Regis From time to time this has been confusing for our customers as there often 2 invoices to pay where purchases are made from different locations by one customer To rectify this we have decided that the Horsham location will continue to list on GG_Supersounds, whilst the Bognor Regis location will now list on GG-Superstuff.
IT WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE TO BUY FROM BOTH LOCATIONS AND HAVE COMBINED SHIPPING, BUT THIS WILL BE RELIANT OF THE TWO OF US MEETING UP, AND WILL THEREFORE USUALLY TAKE MORE TIME, BUT IT IS DO-ABLE
Nothing Else Changes - Still the same superb selection of the best records will be available

FULLY TEST PLAYED AND RECORDED PRIOR TO LISTING SO YOU CAN HEAR IT BEFORE BIDDING

THE VINYL

BOTH DISCS LOOK TOTALLY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT

WHEN PLACED UNDER SPOTLIGHTS I CAN MAKE OUT A FEW WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES  ON EACH SIDE

THE LABELS

THE LABELS ARE IN TOP CONDITION

DEEP RICH INKS THAT FULL STRETCH INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE

A CLOSE EXAMINATION REVEALS JUST 3-4 TINY SPIDER LINES BY THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE TEST PLAY

THE FIRST THING TO SAY IS THAT THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SOUND WHATSOEVER, AND EVERY NOTE IS LOUD, CLEAN AND CRISP, JUST HOW IT WAS INTENDED TO BE HEARD.

BOTH RECORDS ARE SUPERB

THERE IS NO FRYING BACON, NOR ARE THERE ANY LOUD CLICKS

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS PURE FIRST PRESS

SIDE ONE HAS A FEW TINY LITTLE TICS DURING ONE OF THE EARLIER TRACKS

THE RECORDS PLAY WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY AN OCCASIONAL SPECK OF VERY LOW LEVEL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HERE AND THERE

SIDE ONE PLAYS TO AN EX+ GRADE, WHERAS THE OTHER THREE SIDES ARE MUCH CLOSER TO NEAR MINT

WE ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS AUDIO EX+/NR MINT

DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT THOUGH, TAKE A LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF

THE SLEEVE

STARTING WITH THE FRONT SURFACE. AS SOON AS YOU HANDLE IT YOU KNOW IT HASN'T BEEN ABUSED. 

THE EMBOSSED SURFACE IS NEAR PRISTINE. NO MARKS, NO SIGNS OF ANY BENDS OR CREASES OR CREASE LINES. 

NO WHITE AREAS, NO RUBBING WHATSOEVER. EVERY TINY BIT OF THE COLOUR IS 100% RETAINED AND LOOKING PRISTINE. NO FADING AT ALL

NO RING WEAR OR RECORD SHAPE AND THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND SQUARE

THERE IS JUST ONE SMALL PRESSURE LINE AGAINST THE SPINE. FOUR ON THE TOP EDGE, THREE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND ONE NEAR THE OPENING EDGE

THE TOP EDGES ARE BOTH PRISTINE. FULLY COLOURED WITH UNBLEMISHED CORNER TIPS

THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE VIRTUALLY AS PERFECT. THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF TINY FLECKS OF UNDERCARD VISIBLE

THE SPINE IS ALSO IN SUPERB CONDITION. NO RUBBING TO THE TEXT, AND BOTH ENDS ARE UNBLEMISHED. ONE TINY WHITE FLECK ON THE TOP LEADING EDGE

THE REAR SURFACE LIKE THE FRONT HAS RETAINED ALL OF THE RICH DARK COLOUR. IT IS HERE USUALLY WHERE THE SLEEVE SUFFERS MOST FROM RING WEAR, BUT ON THIS SLEEVE THERE IS NONE

A COUPLE OF SMALL PRESSURE LINES ON THE EDGES

THE OPENING EDGES ARE BOTH RAZOR SHARP

OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PERFECTLY CLEAN AND UNRUBBED INNER SURFACE. 

THE GLOSSY CARD INNER SLEEVES BOTH HAVE A SMALL SEAM SPLIT ON ONE SIDE
