EbayEinstellenTilo Carnivore - Retaliation LP 1987 ROADRUNNER PRESS (Netherlands 1987 - Roadrunner Records - RR 9597 )
EbayEinstellenTilo
Original rare FIRST 1987 HOLLAND/NETHERLANDS PRESS of second album by controversial NYC band on Roadrunner Records. Comes with original printed innersleeve. Printed innersleeve has the lyrics on white background on one side, while the other side contains a band picture on black background
NOTE: this is 100% for sure an original 1987 Holland press, meaning the record, main sleeve & innersleeve were all manufactured in the Netherlands, but for some reason the backsleeve of this version comes with the printing data of the original US press (= with barcode plus another barcode sticker pasted over it, the US Roadracer Records logo instead of the Dutch Roadrunner logo & the original US label address instead of the Dutch address) - see second picture. The record itself and the printed innersleeve are without any doubt a Dutch pressing & printing, respectively (see specified data below)
Now: even though the backsleeve states "Printed in U.S.A.", I am 100% sure that this is not true and that the sleeve was actually printed in the Netherlands/Europe. Why am I sure about this? Because I've bought & sold many, many Dutch Roadrunner, as well as US Roadracer pressings over the last 30 years, so I can tell by the texture and "overall feel" of the sleeve that this is clearly a Dutch- and not a US printed sleeve.
Conclusion: this version has 100% for sure not been "doctored" (= manipulated) by anyone & thus seems to be a so far undocumented (early?) European pressing/sleeve variant. If anyone has any further information on this, please contact me. Thank you!!

Grading System / How is the condition of used sound carriers, DVDs, etc. graded?
The condition grading system for used sound carriers, DVDs, etc. is based upon the internationally accepted anglo-american grading system provided by „Goldmine“ or „Record Collector“ magazine
Vinyl & Sleeve grading system
SS/STILL SEALED - the record is still factory sealed and has never been removed from it's sleeve
NM/NEAR MINT - (the highest grade - except for STILL SEALED) vinyl is visually perfect - no scratches or marks at all. Cover is like new
EX+/EXCELLENT PLUS - cover or record have just a few faint paper sleeve marks or completely insignificant hairline scratches that do not affect play at all - visually they should be barely noticeable
EX/EXCELLENT - record has been handled or played carefully, and may have some light paper or spindle marks or other very minor flaws that really shouldn't affect play at all. It will still play clean with very little or no surface noise. Minor signs of wear on the cover - but nothing significant
VG+/VERY GOOD PLUS - record has been played, has some light / hairline-type scratches - but nothing that stands out without close inspection or that can be felt (ie, nothing deep). Really should only be noticed between songs or possibly in very quiet spots and then should not be distracting or continuous. Cover could have light ringwear, small tears , scuffs or small seam splits
VG/VERY GOOD - record has been well played, could have some scratches, perhaps some minor groove wear. There will be some surface noise, occasional clicks or pops - but no skips or jumps. Cover has been well used. Possible tears, seam splits or scuffs
Unlike many other sellers I rarely grade a used item as „mint“. Usually the items are in EX (excellent) to VG (very good) condition.
I usually do not sell records in less than VG condition.
I believe that I grade fair & correct as my feedback shows:
customers are satisfied and can deal with my grading system
Last but not least: I'm a collector myself and follow the golden rule: treat your customers as you wish to be treated yourself and there'll be no trouble
If still in doubt: please feel free to contact me ahead of buying and / or bidding and I gladly explain how the grading system works and can comment specifically on the individual item in question
