HERE'S YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A GENUINE PIECE OF CLASSICAL MUSIC HISTORY!
A LOW REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
SHARP,CLEAN LABELS!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
Checkout my feedback of over 20,000 comments of my standards and service many from some of the world's most respected collectors and dealers.Always adding quality Records, cd's and related items to ebay several times a week.
