Description
Rodriguez ?– Cold Fact
The vinyl record is like new, including a tiny factory pressing fault in the deadwax between tracks 4 & 5.
The pressing fault is a tiny dimple, that has no effect on play. It is in the deadwax, and if you crank up the volume, you can very faintly hear the needle travel over it for four revolutions - it is not a click or tick, it is absolutely minuscule, but as I am listing this as NM, then it needs to be mentioned.
It is definitely a tiny factory pressing fault, that can happen when removing the vinyl from the stamper, but they rarely got through, but I am guessing it was so small that they missed it, or it was so small and in such an insignificant area, that they let it through.
This is how it was when it was new, and these pressing faults are rare, and a good point of conversation.
IMHO It in no way detracts from the quality of the record, and adds a little point of interest.
The record plays superbly, with quiet deadwax and fantastic audio.
The sleeve is in VG+ condition, with slight bubbling to the laminate, and also has a rare "7 Records" distribution sticker on the front.

A few words about condition.
Grade &
score out of 100
GRADING
Mint is a Rigid Band - The next Four Grades are all Narrow Bands, that slightly widen as the condition gradually deteriorates - Good is still Good, but there is a rapid widening of the Grade Bands, as the condition deteriorates over the last Four grades.
MINT
100
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.

This is an above average used record, that has been reasonably well looked after.
GOOD
56 to 68
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated, but the record will still play through, and it will not be a completely unpleasant listening experience, even at the bottom of this grade (56).
The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR
41 to 55
The record is still playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even stick, skip or jump.. This is starting to be an unpleasant listening experience at the top of the grade (55) and will not be a pleasant listening experience at all by the end of it (41).
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR
25 to 40
The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD
0 - 24
The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
The Sleeve is non existent (0) or what is left, is only just recognisable.
A few words about postage.
Within Australia, the best value for multiple purchases is a 5KG satchel, where as many as 15 to 20 LPs can be posted for $22.00 registered post. (well packed in a box, inside the satchel)
My Policies on postage are simple.
I will combine postage
The user pays.
I package well.
Free postage is a deceptive marketing tool, and is encouraged by eBay to hide the ever increasing costs being gouged by eBay and all of the Postage services.
Another bad outcome, resulting from eBay taking a 10% slice of the postage costs.
Postage is not free, it can be loaded into the price, or it can be honestly shown as the part of the purchase, (and it is completely out of my control), it is also constantly being increased in price, and reduced in service.
