Hey all -- about to list a bit more here post holidays. 
This one here -- the cleanest I've ever seen an original copy. Not absolute top -- but just one light shade away, vinyl wise. .... it's real nice.

See below for more detail:

VINYL: VG+ (9.0 of 10) Original first press, deep groove, 63rd address, no "inc" or trademark on label; RVG stamp; Ear marks in runout. A light amount of paper scuffing is about all that's wrong ... it's clean. Plays really great. I caught a hint or two of static on one song on side A -- but I'd say that's about it for anything detracting. Overall it's really clean. Highly recommended.
COVER: VG+ (8.0 of 10) Nice cover -- not without imperfections. Gloss is beautiful. Chipping to spine bottom left corner, about 1". 1" of clear tape on top opening -- done quite well I must say. Otherwise seams and spine are nice and tight. A really light bow to the album, and some moisture damage on back. But when all is said and done, it's pretty solid. _______ Now the standard messages:

GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.

CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.

TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Audio Technica MM cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 6 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: Free anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve. 
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, I am temporarily suspending international shippments. Once international Post catches up, I begin again.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do try to describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction

• CORRECTION TO SHIPPING: This is a slightly older auction template. YES, I AM SHIPPING OVERSEAS, that is no issue. I charge by weight.
