Description

The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses

This is the first UK pressing of the LP, with raised gold lettering on the front cover. Released March 1989 on Silvertone Records ?- Cat #ORE LP 502

Visual and play graded to Goldmine Standard - Vinyl is G+, sleeve is VG+
Vinyl - Visually graded G+ Has quite a few surface marks, nothing too nasty looking but the record is misshapen. Listened through parts of both sides. You can see how the record is misshapen by the movement of the needle but not so much that the needle skips or jumps, it plays through fine. There is audible crackle through a lot of parts. It is light in most places and worse in others. Still worth a listen in my opinion, just depends on your own views on crackle. G+
Sleeve - Slight edge wear and bent out of shape to one top corner otherwise excellent. Colour picture inner sleeve excellent. VG+

About the seller:
I am a record collector myself and have been buying vinyl online since the 90's. I started selling on Ebay a few months ago and have sold 40+ records so far with no complaints - please check my feedback. I am now selling a collection of around 400 LPs that I have inherited from a family friend that have been in storage for over 25 years. They have been stored upright in a smoke free home for that time.
Grading:
I grade records using the "Goldmine Standard." If you are not familiar with this you can google it and find details quite easily. None of the records I am selling are Mint (unopened, unused) so will normally be NM, VG+ or VG. I give a separate grading for the vinyl and the sleeve. I do not have time to listen to each record fully but after careful visual inspection I always listen to any parts that have marks that look like they will even slightly affect the sound. I always try to give as much information as possible and highlight in the photos any wear. Basically the last thing I want is the buyer to have any surprises when receiving the record.
Postage & packing:
All records are sent in a polythene sleeve in a corrugated cardboard mailer and with stiffeners. I normally post the next working day and always within two. I do not make any profit from P&P - Once Ebay and Paypal have taken their percentage and I pay for the mailer, sleeve and the postage itself, I just about break even. If you wish to buy more than one record and combine the shipping, please contact me first so I can check the records fit into one mailer. Then after you purchase I will send you an invoice with combined shipping costs before you pay.
Within UK:
To keep the cost to a minimum I use second class post. For records close to £50 it is slightly more expensive, for Royal Mail to cover up to that amount. For records above £50 it costs more as I use Special Delivery, also due to the value of the item. If you would prefer any other service please contact me so I can arrange.
International:
The shipping prices quoted will be from the Ebay Global Shipping Programme, where they take care of the shipping outside of the UK. I will usually be able to offer a cheaper service so please contact me so I can quote you and arrange my own international shipping.
Any questions, please ask!
