NICK CAVE & the BAD SEEDS
" Let Love In "
1994 UK Import edition on Mute Records


Amazing SUPER HEAVY 180 gram vinyl issue
of this now-classic record!
In brand-new shape, and it's a decade old!!!
A one-time Limited Edition pressing
European Import 12" VINYL LP!
STILL SEALED
UNPLAYED
(see the photos)

Sealed with reflective silver sticker on the rear
of the thick protective vinyl slipcase!
 

This was produced by infamous producer Chris Thomas who is most well-known for his work with the Pretenders & Sex Pistols

SVLP 166
(SEE THE PHOTOS)
16 year-old full-length 12" vinyl LP long-playing album
featuring Mr. Nick Cave
(not Nic Cage) (that was a joke) (but wouldn't it be funny if someone came to this page thinking Nicolas Cage made an album?) (Yeah, you're right. It's not that funny)
and special guests from The Birthday Party, Crime & The City Solution , Immortal Souls , Beasts of Bourbon, Cruel Sea , Dirty Three , Grinderman , Die Haut , Triffids , and oodles more related bands in their circle.

It has been gently pre-owned.  There isn't much to note about the cover.  It was stored in a protective vinyl LP bag & is in excellent condition.  The inner sleeve is the same.  The vinyl has some very minor scuffs in a couple of spots, but there are no lines or marks that you can feel (the classic record-grader's fingernail test), so there shouldn't be any pops, skips or clicks.  Nice!

GRADING STANDARDS from GOLDMINE

NEAR MINT MINUS:
This is reserved for records that are a hair's width better than EX+, or just a fraction below NM (or brand-new). Another grading call, but generally it's a piece that is SO close to perfect that you could easily make an argument for it though honesty makes you feel the need to point out something keeping it out of the "nearly perfect" category.

EXCELLENT PLUS:
A judgment call.  This one is sometimes used interchangeably with NM-, but not with all sellers.  This category is for records that are ALMOST new-looking enough to pass for unowned/unused, but might have one or maybe two very minor problems that bother you just enough to not allow it to be there.  Mayhap a record that someone has purchased and never played, but when they removed the price sticker it left a 1/8 inch bare spot on the cover.  So basically, brand-new-looking, but has one light imperfection.

EXCELLENT:
An excellent record will be somewhere in that area between 1) a record that you could put in a plastic bag and pass off as brand new & 2) the VG+ record, which has just enough aesthetic spots to keep it out of the excellent category.  The vinyl can have some visible scuffs, or very minor lines or surface scratches, but should NOT have any lines/scratches that you can feel if you run your fingernail softly over its surface.  In other words, an Excellent record might have places that appear to be scratches, but they should not sound like scratches when you play them on a stereo system.  They key to this category is SOUND.  It can look slightly less than perfect but it has to sound clean. An excellent cover/sleeve can have very minor lines or creases caused by (not all-the-way folded) slight bending/folding of a corner.  There may be some very light wear caused by fingers touching the top of the cover as they flip by, and there might be the very lightest hint of oncoming ring wear, but there should not actually be real ring wear, and there can't be anything even close to a seam split, complete fold, rip or tear.  In other words, not quite perfect, but if not for an imperfection or two it might come close.

VERY GOOD PLUS:
Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record,

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that don’t affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, so long as repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. (This goes for your body as well. See a physician if your center hole is misshapen or has telltale marks.) There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ Covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location.

VERY GOOD:
Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. That said, VG records — which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a an NM record — are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because moost of the “big money” goes for more perfect copies. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money. For the average Joe, VG is a normal listening copy. The high-end collector's satisfaction level generally bottoms out around here.

VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail.

When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise won’t overpower the music otherwise. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.

VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover, where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written on it or stamped a price tag on it, too.

GOOD/VERY GOOD MINUS:
Good does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has significant surface noise and groove wear. The label is worn and exhibits significant ring wear, heavy writing or obvious damage caused by trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably.



We are collectors and we want you to get your collectibles in the best condition possible, therefore, unlike many sellers on the great eBay
 WE NEVER REMOVE VINYL FROM ITS SLEEVE AND LEAN IT AGAINST ANYTHING
nor do we
REMOVE THE VINYL RECORDS FROM THEIR SLEEVES & LAY THEM DOWN ON A SURFACE TO DISPLAY THEM.
We're rather amazed when we take the care that we do with the vinyl we sell, and then see another seller make more money selling the exact same item
in worse shape, and their picture shows the record out of its cover and out of its sleeve lying on a surface!  I believe the "problem" is that we try to describe every item
in detail so that you'll know exactly what you're getting.  Many sellers will simply say "excellent" "mint" or "great", having no idea what those terms mean in relation to the Goldmine Grading System.  We tell you exactly what you're getting, and even if it's been to hell and back, we still treat it like it's a piece of your mother.  Sometimes it's the detail that screws things up, I think.  If we were vague, like most sellers, you'd just see the name of the band, the title, and a picture, and you'd buy it.  Oh well.

Many sellers seem to have a disregard for the items they're selling and only care about making their pictures look pretty.  We only care about the pieces we sell.  And you.  So you'll see that the records are displayed IN THEIR ORIGINAL SLEEVES, with just a hint of the vinyl showing so that you can see what color they are.  If you want to see the vinyl pulled from its sleeve and resting on a dusty surface, look at someone else's auction or blog and then come back to our page and buy our copy in PERFECT SHAPE.

We will ship this ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. 

ORDERS OVERSEAS, ESPECIALLY TO EUROPE (AND ESPECIALLY ESPECIALLY GERMANY) ARE SOMETIMES TAKING A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF TIME.  SOME VINYL IS TAKING UP TO A MONTH TO ARRIVE.  IF YOU CAN TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT AS A POSSIBILITY, GO AHEAD AND BID. Other countries currently taking a long time to deliver the mail include Spain, The Ukraine and anything related to the Russian Federation and anyone who falls into the shadow of what has been referred to as Russia, the former U.S.S.R. etc. Just please, if you get all the way down here to the bottom and pay attention to the small print, take into account that is is NOT our fault that packages are taking up to and sometimes over a month to get to certain addresses in the Russian Federation, Italy, Germany, and especially Eastern European locations. We have considered many times NOT SELLING to your part of the world, but it seems to be so starved for new music, and we want to be able to share in the wealth of music that we have here, so we're trying to keep our relationship a happy one. Consider this when you haven't received your records within 3 weeks and you are writing us a nasty letter or considering an "unsent merchandise strike" or whatever they are called. Simply contact us, and we will tell you when your package was mailed, will do our best to track it for you and/or send you a replacement copy of what you won and paid for. If all of this fails, we will GLADLY refund your money. We absolutely have no history of ripping anyone off, and are doing our best to keep the flow of music working from the Eastern seaboard of the United States to the more tightly-reined countries in your part of the world! We WANT YOU to hear rare music!! Thank you, my friend! Johnny, at Reptilian.

Disregard the info below in the above text (the box above this one):

1. The information in maroon/red that reads "Amazing SUPER HEAVY..."
and everything else down through the blue text reading
"This was produced by infamous producer Chris Thomas who is most well-known..."
 IS NOT ABOUT THIS AUCTION.  IT IS ALL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PULP RECORD UP FOR SALE.

2. The DISCOGS INFO saying it is on the Simply Vinyl label, etc. is all about the PULP record as well.

3.  It is NOT a 180 gram heavy virgin vinyl reissue.
