IN MAGNIFICENT UNPLAYED MINT!!! CONDITION
COMPLETE WITH MINT!!!! SLEEVE
and PICTURE INNER
TIME VAULT CONDITION!!!
- CATALOGUE:MERCURY 6337 243
- MATRIX: 6337243 A//2 v 130 / B//1 130
- 'MASTERDISK' STAMPED INTO DEAD WAX BOTH SIDES
I HAVE UNEARTHED A LARGE COLLECTION OF ROCK ALBUMS THAT ARE IN A CONDITION THAT DEFIES BELIEF!!
THEY BELONGED TO A COLLECTOR WHO DID EXACTLY THAT - COLLECT THEM!!!
NEVER PLAYED!!! AND NEVER HANDLED!!!
THEY WERE FOUND INSIDE A LOCKED ROOM WHERE THAT HAVE SAY UNMOLESTED FOR ALL THESE YEARS.
IT IS AS THOUGH THEY WERE BRAND NEW SHOP STOCK, BUT OF COURSE THERE IS ONLY ONE COPY OF EACH RECORD.
SO OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I AM GOING TO BE LISTING THESE NIGHTLY. YOU HAVE JUST THE ONE CHANCE TO SNAP UP SOMETHING UNIQUE IN THE COLLECTING INDUSTRY NAMELY ' A VINTAGE UNPLAYED VINYL!!!
NOW HAVING SAID THAT I WILL BE RUNNING A TEST PLAY ON EACH OF THEM TO RECORD THE VINYL FOR BIDDERS TO LISTEN TO, BECAUSE UNPLAYED DOESN'T ACTUALLY GUARANTEE MINT!!! WHAT I DO GUARANTEE IS THAT MY VERY CAREFUL TEST PLAY WILL GO UNDETECTED
THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE BLUE AND RED MERCURY LABELS ARE JUST MAGNIFICENT. DEEP BLUE BASE COLOUR THAT IS FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES. NO MARKS OR STAINS AND NO SIGNS OF HANDLING WHATSOEVER.
NO RUBBING TO THE TYPEFACE OR LOGO'S
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE WHATSOEVER, AND THERE IS STILL RESIDUAL SHARDS OF VINYL INSIDE THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THE VINYL IS ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE!! NOT A BLEMISH ON IT. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS TOTALLY FLAWLESS AND EXACTLY THE SAME CAN BE SAID ABOUT IT WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION.
I BELIEVE YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL UNPLAYED VINYL BY THE WAY IT FEELS WHEN YOU TRY TO REMOVE IT FROM THE INNER SLEEVE, AND THIS FEELS EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS
NO VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND NO STATIC EITHER
NO DUST POPS OR ANY OTHER UNWANTED NOISES
THIS UNPLAYED ALBUM HAS THE HIGHEST GRADE POSSIBLE OF MINT!!!!
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
FULLY LAMINATED SINGLE SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS VERY VERY CLEAN AND IMPORTANTLY HAS NO HEAVY CREASES OR BENDS. IT HAS BEEN STORED UPRIGHT IN A LOCKED ROOM FOR ALL OF IT'S LIFE AND BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN TOUCHED HAS HAD NO OPPORTUNITY TO GET CREASED
THERE ARE NO SMALL LAMINATE LINES NEXT TO THE SPINE, NONE ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.
THE REAL PROOF LIES IN THE EVIDENCE ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES WHERE THE COLOUR REMAINS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT ALL THE WAY FROM CORNER TIP TO CORNER TIP. NOT ONE SPECK OF RUBBING EVEN TO THE TIP ENDS.ALL OF THE LAMINATE IS PERFECT
THE SPINE IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED ALL THE WAY FROM TOP TO BOTTOM. EVERY LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE IS NO WEAR TO EITHER TIP END
THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP, AND SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE
THE REAR SURFACE IS IN EXACTLY THE SAME CONDITION AS THE FRONT, JUST TWO TINY LAMINATE LINES NEAR THE SPINE
THE PICTURE INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, NO WRINKLES
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE MINT!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
GARRY
