Seam sealing and

Lot of 2 limited cd box of The velvet underground, both 45th anniversary edition, still sealed but they have some marks, please see pics for further details. Velvet underground and Nico has one light cut on the front, which unsealed would be barely visible in my opinion. Otherwise it is New and sealed. White light white heat is also sealed but there are missing parts on the sealing. There is also a corner à bit damaged.

Very hard to find and RARE Ac/dc BOX set Vol 1 Complete with 6 albums Why rare? as it has the red lettered Powerage sleeve misprint and the TNT with white border. Those were only released in this very limited 1989 box set. A lot of these box sets exist in cardboard, but very few were made in this perspex plastic box. Overall super condition, see pictures for a very detailed condition. - All records seem to be unplayed and are NM. - Sleeves are all close to NM except for Dirty Deeds that has wide tape marks allover (VG), but it's not distrubing as you can see on the pictures. Powerage has a tiny seam split as you can see to the left. - Plastic box (inevitable scratches, one corner missing a part - see pictures) and inner (tears, tape and wear on sides) are VG. International bidders welcome. Exact shipping quote might be different from the announced quote based on your exact location -please inquire before bidding or accept the final shipping oncost if any. Thank you.

33 Tours LP   DON CHERRY & The Jazz Composer's Orchestra RELATIVITY SUITE JCOA Records VIRGIN JLP 2001 Dischi Ricordi ITALY Year: 1974 Jazz Free Jazz Cover: VG++ Record: NM Back cover a bit dirty and with ring wear. See photos. My grading criteria are based on the Goldmine® Grading Guide: MINT (M)* These are absolutely perfect in every way. Often rumored but rarely seen, Mint should never be used as a grade unless more than one person agrees that the record or sleeve truly is in this condition. *Note: I almost never use MINT grade, I think it should only be used for perfect new sealed records or perfect "still in shrink" records. I could occasionally add an additional conservative grade of [NM+] to this guide to describe perfect records, even if not new sealed or not "still in shrink". NEAR MINT (NM OR M-)** A good description of a NM record is “it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.” In other words, it’s nearly perfect. Many dealers won’t use a grade higher than this, implying (perhaps correctly) that no record or sleeve is ever truly perfect. NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any “spindle marks” from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. Major factory defects also must be absent; a record and label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. (NM records don’t have to be “never played”; a record used on an excellent turntable can remain NM after many plays if the disc is properly cared for.) NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind. **Note: Sometimes I can add an additional conservative grade of [NM-] or [VG++] to this guide to describe records just under [NM] or "almost [NM] perfect with a few minor flaws". VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) A good description of a VG+ record is “except for a couple minor things, this would be Near Mint.” Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if it toward the high end of the grade (sometimes called VG++). 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 do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. 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. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint. Very Good (VG) Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money. 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 will not 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 cov

That said, VG records — which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a NM record — are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because most of the “big money” goes for more perfect copies.
