Comments:
This is the scarce VJ bracket label on black. There is another black label release, but it is not with the bracket. Also, the Beatles name is above the center hole, making this a true
pressing.
This is a play graded album. We are listening to it as we write this.
The visual is not taken into account when play grading.
Visually it appeared as though it would not play better than good, but once we put it on the turntable (Technics with Shure N97 Hi Track) it played excellently with crisp clean sound. There is little to no surface noise on side 1, side 2 is also excellent with just a hint of occasional surface noise. Both sides play through with no skips, no ticks that we heard. Between tracks is also pretty quiet. This is why visual grading can be misleading. Sometimes a visually poor album will sound better than a visually pleasing one. Of course sound is subjective, but we dot no believe you will be disappointed with the sound on this album.
The jacket has some separation and has been taped with invisible tape.
This is a scarce album, more so when playing well, so there are no returns. We do not want to get back a poorly sounding album in exchange for a good one. If you have any questions, ask before purchasing.
International Buyers:
Do not ask us to change customs forms, we will not, period.
Also, international postage is what the postage is, we do not negotiate international postage. If it is priority mail, then it is priority mail and the buyer is responsible for all customs duties.
All international orders of $25 or more will be shipped priority mail, regardless of weight, no exceptions!
What Stated Condition Means
Our condition ratings are done visually, thus if there is something we missed visually, or if there is something a visual inspection could not have foreseen, let us know and we will make it right.
There are times when we test play a record, if we do so we will note the results in the comments section. We also use the comment section when we feel there is need to call items to your attention. Please read all comments before bidding so you will have a full understanding of the condition of the record and any other information that we feel is important enough to put in writing.
Sealed: Nothing to say, it is as it came from the manufacturer and we can make no comment since it has never been opened
Mint: As perfect as you can get after it has been opened, but not absolutely perfect because the second you open a record it is no longer perfect. Most mint records have been played sparingly, or played with great care on sophisticated systems and show no obvious signs of use, some appear never to have been played, but might nonetheless have a hint of surface noise hidden among the quieter passages
Near Mint: No distracting flaws on the jacket, no scratches, nicks on the record surface. There can be some light scuffing from the sleeve but it will have no effect on the playing or the sound quality. There might be an occasional piece of background noise, but not consistent or frequent
Excellent: Clean jacket with some wear, clean bright record surface with some light scratches or sleeve scuffs that do not make their presence known during playing, some light surface noise.
Very Good: A frequently played record. Surface will show signs of use that are much more obvious and in greater number than an excellent grade, such as very light scratches /hairlines and sleeve scuffing. The jacket will be fairly clean but will show signs of having been handled, though not roughly. There is more surface noise than on those graded excellent.
Good: We limit the listing of records in this condition to only those that are rare enough to be desirable even if slightly abused. This is the same thing that happens in the world of stamps. Something rare may often not be available in the better grades, or might be priced to high for inclusion in a collection that has financial boundaries. Records in this condition will be listenable but will have enough surface wear to have that wear make inroads into the overall sound of the record. When a record is graded as good we do not accept returns.
