I fully guarantee everything I offer here - if you don't like any item for whatever reason, return it at my expense, no questions asked (verified 30 day+ active Forum members only thanks)..
Conservative Grading is as follows-- (NM, VG++, VG+, VG, G)
Grading listed below is : cover first / record grade 2nd
Original contents are stored inside the cover. I try to ship all records outside the cover and inner paper sleeves, so any postal damage is minimised.
I use new pre-made cardboard mailers for smaller orders, and these virtually guarantee safe arrival of your record (they are also MUCH faster to pack).
Combined postage to anywhere in Australia at cost (or close enough).
ABSOLUTELY NO LOCAL PICKUPS - I just don't have the time, sorry.
I'm barely at home as it is, and have no wish to be here waiting around for hours at a time.
Post in this thread to reserve your item(s).
thank you
NB: CONSERVATIVE GRADING… cover first / record grade 2nd
_______________________________________________
Suzanne Vega – Suzanne Vega – AUS pressed debut album (L 38490). VG/VG++. Cover has seen better days unfortunately, as a bend top left corner, and ringwear on the front spoils the look. Same on the back, along with a small tear along the bottom edge and wear. Still, the white lyric inner is looking great, and the absolute star – the wax, is AS NEW. Plays silently and without a distraction anywhere along the way. Amazing record. $12 $10
* okitoki * Cat Stevens – Teaser And The Firecat – AUS pressed 1971 gatefold album on pink labels, STERLING mastered both sides (SIL-934323). VG/VG. Cover shows wear from storage (rubbing around record on front) and edgewear around the opening. GOLD Record Award sticker bottom left is wrinkled but well attached. Gatefold is clean and bright inside, and on the back cover too. The record shows wear, but plays well with light marks causing a little crackle. Would benefit from a thorough clean. SQ is terrific for a 45 year old pressing. $7
* Gee Emm * Little Richard – 22 Original Hits – UK compilation. (Warwick WW5034). VG/VG+.
Cover is great but for a white speckled ringwear, front and back (looks like a dusting of round snow, NOT shown below - cover is just VG). Some edgewear present too. The record is great and plays fine with little to no noise. $10
* Steve100 * Rickie Lee Jones – Girl At Her Volcano – AUS pressing (23805-1). VG+/VG++.
Cover is great but for a faint record outline, front and back. Some tiny spine splits too. The record is great (looks amazing, bright, shiny, NEW) and plays fine with little to no noise, which you need for this quiet title. $10
* krakatana * Goanna – Spirit of Place – AUS gatefold pressing (600127). VG+/VG++. Cover is great – just a little rubbing at top front and a slight impression on the back, plus a long split along the bottom edge (which you won’t see in a sleeve). The record is looking OK with some ghosting on Side 1 that probably needs a clean. Plays pretty clearly though in the louder sections without any noise. $5
* 125dBmonster * The Angels – Greatest – AUS repress LP on black Albert labels (APLP.043). VG/VG+. Cover just OK, with wrinkles along the opening edge, and spine, plus wear along it and tiny rips. Split along bottom edge about 10cm. No inner. Hanging in there though. The record looks very nice indeed however with just fine wispy hairlines. Just a little noise on entry, then only lightly between tracks. A clean should bring plenty more out of it. $12
* Meinoz * The Angels – Dark Room – AUS 1st press gatefold on textured black sleeve. Mastered by Capitol (‘Wally’ Traugott) - (ELPS 4061). VG/VG+. Sleeve has ringwear on back, some rubbing on front and corner bumps. No inner. Inside gatefold looks good. The record is shmick and plays really well. $12
* Gee Emm * Lou Reed – Rock N Roll Animal – GERMAN pressed for Europe (NL 83664) VG+/VG+. The cover has some spine splits, edgewear and no inner. Beautiful clean and mark-free vinyl, plays with some noise on entry then settles into a nice groove. Great SQ throughout. $16
* MartyM * The Smiths – Hatful of Hollow – UK original gatefold ‘A1’ stamper (ROUGH 76), early press (first?). VG+/VG++. Gatefold is beautiful with just some minor storage wear, and spine rubs and tiny tears. Original sticker on front in place and looking good (minor wear). Original lyric inner is also fantastic. The record plays great and looks very very clean, with just light noise between tracks (which will clean up nicely I’d say). $40
* krakatana * Kate Bush – On Stage – Japanese original (EMS-10001). VG++/VG++. No OBI, but immaculate colour inner present. The cover is near perfect with no wear to mention. The record is similarly brilliant with zero noise and the usual Japanese fidelity. $15
* Meinoz * Wings – Band On The Run - US original pressing including poster (SO-3415). Another ‘Wly’ Traugott mastered special. VG+/VG++. Cover is really solid with just some light rubbing wear to the front, some tiny opening splits, very good spine. Big green sticker on the back which should come off easily enough. Colour poster is beautiful. The lyric inner is perfect. The vinly has some light ghosting on side 1, which can’t be heard and the sound is awesome throughout, with little to zero noise. $15
* Meinoz * U2 – Unforgettable Fire – AUS original pressing (RML 53132) VG/VG+. Cover has ringwear to front and back, some edgewear, original inner. The promo flyer is also there in awesome condition. The record shows some marks, but plays well with just a noise between tracks, which should clean up nicely. $12
Dire Straits – Communique – AUS original pressing (6360 170) VG/NM. The cover has very noticeable ringwear to front and the back, some spine splits. Original inner looks good but for the odd age spot. The record is immaculate..simple as that. Can’t hear any noise, anywhere. Lovely. Hasn’t been cleaned and I can only imagine what SQ will appear should you attempt that…hmm, perhaps just leave it?
$12 $10
* 125dBmonster * ZZ Top – Eliminator – AUS original pressing (23774-1) VG+/VG+. Cover looks great with very little wear but for a hint of a record impression only, some really tiny spine splits, a small bend near the opening. No inner. The record is ghosted both sides, but plays absolutely fine with little to zero noise throughout, and loves to be cranked. $12
Mike Oldfield – Tubular Bells – AUS repress (Virgin – V2001) VG+/VG+. Cover looks great with some light ringwear on front and rubbing at top back. The record looks absolutely beautiful and just needs a clean to dig the absolute best out of it – playing now with the odd pop, indicating ground in dirt that needs liberating. Else an easy, noise free listen. $10 $8
* achjimmy * Elton John With The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra – Live In Australia – AUS pressed double album gatefold. (832 470-1) VG+/NM. Cover has a little rubbing wear to front and back, else white and bright with nothing else to mention. The records are New – unplayed and a fabulous listen. Great package! $12
The Waterboys – This is the Sea – AUS pressed original (Island L 38468) VG/VG+. Lovely embossed sleeve, only a little wear with a bend in the bottom left corner, some minor edgewear at the opening, tiny spine splits and small corner bumps. Original white lyric inner is lovely. The record plays beautifully, with noise on entry and between tracks, so just needs a thorough clean to take it stratospheric. $12 $10
* Gee Emm * Joe Jackson – Live 1980/86 – Double vinyl album (L 38939). VG+/VG+. Cover looks fine but for a bend and corner bump in the top left front, some minor spine splits and very light edgewear. Original price sticker still there and very clean, top right. Both inners are great. Both records are fantastic looking, with just light marks, and need a quick clean to present two immaculate listening experiences. $14
Billy Joel - Turnstiles – AUS pressed original ( SBP 234797). VG/VG. With inner. Needs a thorough clean. $5 $3
