Description: I have carried out a thorough visual inspection on this 11 LP box set from Deutsche Grammophon. Most sides show only minimal signs of use and the former owner has obviously taken great care of this desirable collection. I couldn't even detect a fingerprint anywhere! The inside of the box has been inscribed with basic information on the sonatas and the inner sleeves are marked with the disc numbers (see photos). There are signs that price stickers have been removed from the upper right area of the front of the box, which grades overall at VG+. You will never tire of this collection! Buy with confidence - see my feedback. I am selling a large number of classical vinyl LPs from my late father’s collection – please see my other sale items. My father took great care of his records - the albums (and their sleeves) are all in excellent condition unless specifically stated and were only played on the finest equipment – I can’t remember what deck he used but I do remember that he was the proud owner of a Sugden amplifier and QUAD speakers so that should give you some idea! There may be some unobtrusive marks on the sleeve to denote how many times he played the record. They have not been played for the last 10 years and have been securely stored in a smoke-free environment. So please take a look at my other items, which are also priced realistically for a quick sale.Photos form part of the description.See below for grading system.PAYMENT AND POSTAGEPayment by Paypal within 3 days of purchase please. Returns accepted within 7 days if the item is not as described (UK only). Items will normally be sent within 3 working days of receiving payment.

There is no 'buy it now' price unless stated and I will not respond to enquiries of this nature.I will also accept postal orders and cheques, but from UK buyers only. Items will be despatched as soon as the cheque has cleared, but as there is no bank in the village where I live this may take a little time.I always obtain proof of posting and in the event of non-delivery will be happy to assist you in any claim against Royal Mail for non-delivery.

This assures me that my shipment has arrived at its destination, and that you are happy with your purchase. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied, please contact me before posting feedback, and I will do my utmost to resolve any problem.Grading SystemThe disc is graded first in the description, then the outer sleeve. Mint (M) – Absolutely perfect in every way. Never been played and usually sealed.Near Mint (NM) – The record has been on a shelf between other records. The vinyl looks glossy and clearly has only been played a few times. There are no marks on the vinyl and the whole package is complete.Excellent (E) – Same but I’d tolerate very light marks where the vinyl has been in and out of the inner sleeve a few times, or tiny signs of use generally.Very Good Plus (VG+) – A few further faults are acceptable, but nothing that really compromises the record visually or audibly. A little rub, light inaudible marks, a little background crackle.Very Good (VG) – It’s seen a bit of life, but is still usable. Light pops and clicks, an edge split, light visible scratches. You can still listen to it and enjoy looking at it, but it is visually and audibly used.Good (G) – To be honest you’re making trouble for yourself here, as Good means Bad. I’d only be selling something really desirable in this condition, with a bargain price and a full, no holds barred description to match.Poor (P), Fair (F) Attempting to listen will be a disturbing experience. Expect major noise issues, skipping or repeating. The record itself is cracked, badly warped and has deep scratches. The cover is also approaching death! I wouldn't be selling anything in these categories.
