A curated job lot of 15 original records, 3 x 12" LP and 12 x 12" singles from a single UK collection, covering Pop and including I Can't Stop and Touch. These are ORIGINAL PRESSINGS — not reproductions.
Please note the pressings: 5 of the 15 records are not UK pressings — Third World – You've Got The Power (Netherlands); Rod Stewart – Blondes Have More Fun (US); Jerry Cowan – The Story Of Michael Jackson Told By Jerry Cowan (Netherlands); Janet Jackson – Whoops Now / What'll I Do (UK & Europe); Brassbastardz – Jiemah/Bubbble In Troubbble (Hungary). Labelled on the contents list and visible in the photos.
Mint records: 1 record(s) in this lot are graded Mint. These were not played, to preserve their condition, so they are graded by eye only.
Please read before buying: The grades are based on the Goldmine scale and on my experience from selling over a thousand records — they have not been play tested 100%. My gradings are generally accurate, but details such as skips, which cannot be detected visually, may be present. By buying this lot you accept the small risk that such damage may be present on some items.
These grades are based on the Discogs/Goldmine scale: NM — near perfect, barely played; EX — plays like new with minimal surface marks; VG+ — light marks, plays well with some surface noise; VG — visible marks, surface noise throughout, should still play through; G+ — well-played, significant surface noise. The photos are of the actual records in this lot.
Photos and grading expectations: photos generally include images of the vinyl in strong light. When a record has marks or damage, I photograph the worst affected areas so you can see the worst case, not just the best angle — please pay close attention to any marks on the surface you can see before buying. I'm happy to provide extra images on request.
Contrary to the views of some people, it is not possible to please everybody with gradings. Having sold thousands of records, I know that some buyers have very different expectations of gradings to others. I try to find the middle ground with gradings, but I know that a small percentage of people will disagree. If you buy this lot, you buy with that understanding in mind, as I've now made it clear.
If you decide that you disagree with the gradings in this advert significantly on receipt, message me before opening a case. Returns are accepted and I'm happy to answer any questions.
Notes on my pricing methodology: estimated prices and value of individual records and the batch overall were carefully calculated from historic market data on discogs.com for each individual release. Prices are representative of real-world sales from Discogs (assuming each record sold individually). These batches are adjusted to be great value, with a significant discount below the market rate for each individual record combined.
Why buy this batch from me? Many job-lot listings sell unidentified records — you buy a box of surprises and spend evenings working out what you've got. Every record here is already catalogued to its correct release, individually listed with its own estimated value, and priced well below market for the same records bought individually. You get collection-ready records, not a research project.
Summary of record grades: 9 NM, 4 EX, 1 M, 1 G+. Estimated retail value of the lot: £108.17.
Ships from the UK, carefully packed in a stiff mailer. If you feel any record is mis-graded, message me before opening a case — returns accepted, no quibbles.
