OK, if you re looking at this you know all about it, so I ll skip pasting in the boilerplate description. This copy is 100 UNPLAYED Many of the records were unsealed during a failed unboxing video attempt, but beyond that have never left their sleeves. WHY DID I DO THIS? THIS THING SAT FOR A DAMN YEAR IN ITS ORIGINAL SHIPPING BOX? Well, what s done is done.
This set is complete yes, with the stupid foam thing and even the silica packets . All the records 14 , all the sleeves, all the stuff inside the sleeves, the book, the big box, and the outer promo sleeve thing. Everything is NM / M-, but for fun let s knock the book down to EX it was on a shelf for a while, though I never got around to really looking at it and the box itself let s call EX to be safe. UPDATE - I JUST DAMAGED THE DUMB OUTER SLIP THING WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PUT IT BACK ON AFTER TAKING THE PHOTOS SEE FINAL PHOTO . WHY CAN T I HAVE NICE THINGS? So let s downgrade the outer promotional slip thing to a VG or even G . I m tempted to throw that thing right in the trash, but cooler heads have prevailed.
One final detail: I put a regular non-sealable protective record sleeve on Please Please Me after the failed unboxing video, since I could tell that the adhesive on the original would eventually either crap out or take a piece of the actual cover with it once actually in use. Back when I had big plans to rebuild the turntable setup and sip wine and bask in the glory of this beautiful box set...
5-day auction, local only, let s rock
