Item Description
First off, thank you for taking a look at my auction.
I am not a store I am a fan of music with a huge record collection.
I have recently decided my family needs a house and am selling off my more valuable records.
Since I am taking the time to listen to each record I sell and take many high resolution pictures, it will take me some time to get everything listed.
Please understand that I am selling my personal collection, and this is not something I expected would ever happen.
I will describe each of my items very honestly and in as much depth as I can.
I am NOT an audiophile and I will not answer questions about in depth sonic stuff because I don t know....I love music and have since I was a small child.
I built this collection for listening and not keeping in a sleeve for all eternity.
I own and regularly use a VPI cleaner, and take the best possible care of my records.
Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions after reading the listing....
ULTRA RARE Led Zeppelin Classic 45 RPM Road Case 48 LP Set 2006 Every Zep studio album in an amazing set If you are reading this auction and are serious then you know what this is.
Classic produced this set in 2006, insanely limited, and considered by many to be the best audio quality pressings of every album.
This collection is my personal one and has been treated with upmost respect and care.
I always clean my records before play and am very careful with my handling.
I have played all of these albums at one point or another, and several tonight...
might end up being a bunch more because they sound fantastic The general condition of the entire set is EX /NM-.
There are some manufacturer defects which you need to be aware of because I will NOT acccept returns due to them.
Please feel free to research this set before bidding as it is very rare and valuable.
Classic had a lot of issues with quality on these 200g 45 rpm 1 side records.
Many of the first half of the set have some dishing up or down, which basically means the center is slightly up or down from center.
This has NO effect on the audio.
I have play tested these records WITH and WITHOUT a record clamp, and can not notice a difference.
There are a few clicks and pops here and there over the course of 48 records....you can t expect every one to be perfect of any slight noise, that being said...they sound amazing.
Anyone who does not think these records sound mind blowing is quite frankly way too picky about things.
This is a set for LISTENING These are by far the best I ve ever heard Zeppelin and I have listened to a LOT of records.
If you have a good system these will sound fantastic...if you have a great system, these will sound even better In 2006, Classic released the Led Zeppelin Road Case.
Each of the ten albums were cut at 45 RPM on single-sided 12 discs pressed on heavy, 200 gram Quiex SV-P vinyl, for maximum fidelity.
This set was extremely limited in production while exact figures are unknown, roughly 150 sets were released, and the set sold out immediately.
A planned second pressing of the set was canceled shortly prior to production, as were planned 45 RPM releases of the individual albums in the set.
This set represents the only commercially released versions of the Led Zeppelin catalog at 45 RPM.
The original price was around 700 .
I doubt you ll see one of these again for a long while....the only reason I m giving up mine is because I am buying a house.
Included titles are: SD 8216-45 Led Zeppelin I 4 Disc Set SD 8236-45 Led Zeppelin II 4 Disc Set SD 7201-45 Led Zeppelin III 4 Disc Set SD 7208-45 Led Zeppelin IV 4 Disc Set SD 7255-45 Houses Of The Holy 4 Disc Set SS 2200-45 Physical Graffiti 8 Disc Set SS 2201-45 Song Remains the Same 8 Disc Set SS 8416-45 Presence 4 Disc Set SS 16002-45 In Through the Out Door 4 Disc Set SS 90051-45 Coda 4 Disc Set This is very valuable and VERY VERY VERY heavy.
Shipping will be 100 or free if the auction hits over 2500 .
It will be fully insured and delivered via signature only.
There will be no exceptions to my rules on shipping because I will not have this become lost.
NO RETURNS, I ve described these honestly, they are used but kept in EX / NM condition.
There is some dishing up and down on many of them especially in the first half of the set, but it is visual only on my turntable which is a Technics 1600 MKII slightly customized.
The audio is fantastic, you really will not be disappointed....and this is a great investment....it will be worth a fortune eventually.
I will also only ship this to the USA because of the size, and value, and customs issues.
I am not a fan of local pickup because quite honestly, I don t want anyone coming to my house...but if you live very close by this can be discussed.
