Description

I've become a Jazz fanatic, so it is time to let go of some Rock and Roll lps that I will not be listening to. This is limited edition Rolling Stones Box set #6794. All of the albums are near mint with one minor imperfection. Record number 1, their self titled lp, has a very small light imperfection visible on the song "Walking the Dog". I played through the imperfection on my turntable, and there are 3 faint "ticks" that you must really listen for, because they are during a loud part of the song. The red covers and Geodisc cover all have seamsplits. The box has only very slight wear. The outer latch of the box allows the box to open a slight bit (visible in the picture). All of the MFSL albums I have for sale have been professionally cleaned (please read below). You will be shocked at the difference a good cleaning makes, even with brand new records! Even with the imperfections of this set, I can assure you that this is the BEST SOUNDING set on Ebay. I have spent nearly 2 hours cleaning, inspecting, and double inspecting the albums under very bright light. Your happiness is guaranteed, or your money back.  

Albums - NM (with 1 imperfection causing 3 faint "ticks")

Covers - seamsplits

 Professionally cleaned - YES

Here’s the reason why you should buy this particular record, and ignore most others that are listed. You are buying a record from a record fanatic who cares deeply about the condition of the record he is mailing to you. I spend extra time with your record that is absolutely VITAL to your record sounding it’s best, and ensuring your musical enjoyment.

All of my records are professionally cleaned using a VPI 16.5 vacuum record cleaning machine, Disc Doctor brushes, and Record Research lab cleaning fluids. Here is the process:

1 - Dry brushed with an audioquest anti-static record cleaner brush

2 - Cleaned with RRL Super vinyl wash and vacuumed.

3 - Cleaned with RRL Super vinyl rinse and vacuumed

4 - flipped over and repeated on other side.

After the record is cleaned it is inspected under very bright light. Any imperfection on the record that looks like it will affect the play (pop, tick, skip, etc) is played through on my own musichall MMF9 turntable. Any audible imperfections will be noted in the album description.

And that’s not all!

All cleaned albums are placed in a rice paper record sleeve to ensure that it remains pristine. The original sleeve is placed inside the cover, and the album is placed behind the cover, with the cover and album placed in a protective plastic sleeve.

All albums are mailed in official record mailers from Bags Unlimited. All of this work requires a lot of extra time and money, but I would not even consider selling albums any other way.

Sealed records policy - I am not responsible for sealed records that are shipped still sealed. If you buy a sealed album, after you pay for it I will happily open it up, inspect it, and clean it for you. If it is damaged or has any imperfections, I will let you know and you can decide if you want your money back or not.

My personal album grading system is as follows:

Near Mint (NM) - New or looks new. No imperfections worth mentioning.

Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) - Very slight wear or imperfections. Just not up to the near mint standards. No imperfection that will bother you.

Very Good Plus (VG+) - slight wear or imperfections. Covers may have the start of ringwear on the top or bottom. Records may have light scratches or imperfections that may cause a pop or tick. This will be the grade I will give some records, and most covers.

Very Good - Obvious wear and imperfections. Covers will have obvious ringwear or other imperfection that bothers me. Albums will have loss of luster and scratches that affect play. Unless rare, I will not be listing records that are VG.

Good - Yard sale, Flea market junky record. Unless super rare, I will list no album in this condition. Records in this condition are not worth cleaning, and if they’re not worth cleaning, they’re not worth listing.

 

Shipping in the United States is $5. Shipping outside of U.S. is more (please ask). Good Luck!!
