ARTISTE, RECORD TITLE AND LABEL STAN GETZ AND JOAO GILBERTO "GETZ/GILBERTO" Mobile Fidelity 1- 208 (pressed In US) A 200 gram Anadisc Mobile Fidelity LPwhich comes with the original thick stock inner. It has the limited edition number 4032. NOTE: I am based in Singapore but the system assumes that as a seller on Ebay,US should indicate a US postage cost which may not even cover surface postage in some instances let alone registration(ie tracking). Potential US bidders please read my shipping section below. GRADING RESULTS: The jacket is graded as Near Mint.T are some light signs of wear at the corner edges and a slight crease towards the top left hand corner but nothing serious. T are no seam splits etc The vinyl looks free of lines . It maintains its lustre and brilliance. Tracking at 1.7g on a LP12 mounted with an ARO arm and a Lyra Helikon SL cartridge, t were a couple of very occasional and light click which I attributed to static. The playing is graded as Near Mint in view of this. How I Clean and Grade my Records Cleaning: Cleaning is usually done on a Loricraft PRC 4 cleaning machine using the US made Walker Audio 3 stage cleaning solution . Playback Equipment: Playback is through a Linn LP12 turntable/Armeggedon/Naim Aro tonearm/Lyra Helikon SL cartridge and through a brace of active Naim 250s/135s into Naim DBL speakers. For 45s I use a second Linn/Lingo/Aro/Linn Troika though I change them occasionally as the arm tubes can be easily transferred from one deck to another. I use both Goldmine and Rare Record Price Guide grading system as a guide and came up with the following: · Mint I only use this for sealed items. The record is virtually unplayed and is in a brand new condition. Cover is pristine. Up till now, I have never used this grading and, chances are, never will, due to my conservative nature in matters of record grading. · Near Mint Very little or negligible flaws. Faint lines or very faint creasing on laminated covers visible under a strong light is acceptable but nothing serious. Records which show some signs of having been played such as very faint spindle marks are allowed but t should be no lessening in sound quality. . · Excellent Item obviously played, though not often,and enjoyed with some slight noise. The record should be nice and shiny but may have a few light marks which should not intrude on play. Slight wear on cover is acceptable. · Very Good Many more imperfections which are noticeable but not obtrusive. The record has been played several times but t should be no major deterioration in sound quality despite some noticeable surface marks and light scratches. Normal wear and tear or writings on the cover is acceptable but t should not be any major tears. I do not offer any records below Very Good unless its extremely rare. Shipping costs Malaysian and Singapore bidders please note that I generally prefer to deal with such bidders only if I am know them reasonably well and am sufficiently comfortable with them. As such please drop me a note if you intend to bid as I will only sell to such bidders under certain conditions and will cancel such bids if you fail to do so. I use brand new custom made plastic sleeves for both the vinyl and for the sleeve. Shipping from Singapore is always by Airmail and by registered post as it allows one to track items in case of delays. I usually post within 2 working days from date of payment. From experience, I know that it generally takes about 10 days to arrive at the destination though t might be variations of plus/minus 3 days. Shipping costs in $ are: UK/USA/Europe Australia Japan US$ 21.21 Each additional LP US$5.55 Postage is via Airmail, "signed for" delivery. I prefer signed for delivery as it allows me to "chase" on my side if buyers do not get their items within 2 weeks though so far this has only happened with Italy. I will inform buyers of the registr... read more
