Condition
I grade my records under bright light so that there is complete correlation between how the record looks and how it sounds.
Vinyl: EX++ approaching NEAR MINT. Music plays loud, bright and clear. No surface-noise or crackle at all. Even run-ins are absolutely silent. Under bright light vinyl is unplayed mint-glossy and shows just a couple of sleeve-removal marks (almost none). No scuffs or scratches. Plays through brilliantly all sides. Labels look like they were pressed yesterday and show a single spindle-line on one side only.
Cover: EX approaching EX+. Fantastic sleeve. Two-panel gate-fold sleeve complete with two copies of the accompanying text book (I think one is an extra seperately bought copy). Incredibly stiff and strong. Very clean and shiny. Very bright, bold, colourful print. Corners and edges are still very straight and sharp. No edge-wear.The lightest touch of corner-wear. Very white and clean object. The extra bought copy of the text book has small writing, price-sticker and is a little off white.
Stunning unused copy!
I visit the post office everyday, so if you're in the UK and want your record tomorrow, just get your order in before 16:00 GMT and choose one of the 1st class postage options and it usually arrives next morning. ( Europe delivery 3 days. Rest of the world delivery 1 week.)
And I will of course combine postage for you, so if there are a couple of items that you are interested in, please feel free to message me for a specific postage quote or simply wait for me to send you a combined invoice after you win. I will always get you the cheapest price options. For example, in the UK at the moment I can ship up to 6 LPs for the same price as 1.
Records are sent at buyers own risk. I do get a proof of postage but if you would like your record to be sent with tracking and insurance please select the Signed-for delivery option.
I list new records and CDs every week. Follow me by clicking the green *follow* button after the link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/kylehem123
