Cybotron - Clear (VG/VG+) *** HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER *** (YELLOW DOT)

Description: If you’re reading this description you know what you’re looking at! I’ve decided to part with my TWO copies of “Clear” and post them here on eBay. I purchased and played these as a pair but I am selling them individually as two separate listings. NOTE: I also have a copy of “R9” posted on my listing for purchase! <<<< READ THE DESCRIPTION BELOW IN FULL BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO BUY THESE >>>> * These were my battle copies. I had 4 copies; 2 were for practice and 2 were my “travel” copies I used at parties for DJ battles. ** Since these were used for battle the “Ready 1-2-3-4” at the start of the song has “burnout” on each word. Ask a DJ friend or surf youtube to hear what burnout on vinyl is. If you do not know what burnout is do NOT buy these copies until you hear an example. Ask a DJ friend to play you an example of burnout so you know what I am making reference to. *** I am rating the playback quality at a VG+. Why? With the exception of the burnout at the very start, the remainder of the song plays at VG++. **** There is a black line on the label which is a queue mark for scratching…this is a piece of black tape. There is also a piece of black tape in the spindle hole which is used to keep the record from bouncing against the spindle when scratching. You ‘might’ be able to pull these off but after 38 years of being on there - it might pull some of the label off if you try to remove it. ***** This the yellow dot copy. Condition: USED  Cover Grade*: VG+ Visual: Original cover in great condition, high gloss, vibrant color, minor ring wear, opening not stretched, corners not bent, writing inside cover opening (see pictures) Seams: Some signs of wear, about a 1.5” rough spot at the 9 o’clock position, no splits/tares Notables: Original cover presents well for its age. Vinyl Grade*: Visual VG // Playback VG+ (SEE NOTE ABOVE ABOUT PLAYBACK GRADE!!!) <> Label: Side A/1: Paper (non-glossy) label in fair condition, writing and queue marks, some fading present // Side B/2: Same as A/1, no queue marks (see picture) Vinyl visual: Side A/1: Glossy and clean, light scratch and/or scuff marks // Side B/2: Same as A/1 Skipping/scratching: Side A/1: None // Side B/2: Not played Crackling/popping: Side A/1: Minimal/nothing significant noted or heard during playback with the exception of the burnout described above // Side B/2: Not played Warping/cupping: None Notables: See Your chance to own a highly sought after record which still has great playability. This record plays at a strong VG++ once you get past the opening burnout. Good overall condition for the age of this record...38 years old! Inner Sleeve: New anti-static plastic   Jacket Protector: Clear polyethylene * Records (vinyl and cover) are graded using Goldmine Grading Guide Note: Colored dots on covers and vinyl can be removed without damage to either. They are used to keep vinyl and covers in sync when I have multiple copies of a record. WANT IT? I WANT YOU TO HAVE IT!!

Shipping: US and international Buyer pays all shipping costs regardless of region Shipped via USPS Media Mail and/or eBay GSP Album will be shipped in hard mailer box Vinyl will be inside of jacket sleeve and will be compressed by additional cardboard to avoid seam damage (very rare occurrence). If you want it mailed with the vinyl outside the jacket let me know that and I’ll accommodate the request.   Returns: No returns! I’ve gone above/beyond to make sure you have everything you need to make an informed decision to purchase this record or not. I’m sure you’ll find the condition accurate/or better than I have described. I've been very transparent with my grading and condition of these records - I rarely see that from other sellers on eBay. Buy my records with confidence!! *** Some things to know before you purchase... ***   These records are from my personal collection which was built during my time as a DJ between 1980 and 2000. As difficult as it is, I’ve decided to part with these records to make room for new music. These records all bring back fond memories - I hope by passing them on others will play them and recall good times as well or just take a liking to what was popular “back in the day!”  - These records have been graded using the Goldmine Grading Guide. I have personally played side A/1 only and provided a grade I feel best represents the quality of the vinyl and cover(unless otherwise stated in the description above). If you want me to play side B/2 and grade it I will, just send me the request. - I have called out any conditions I think a buyer should be aware of in my description. If you have specific question (runout/deadwax numbers for example) please ask BEFORE YOU PURCHASE the item. There are no refunds. - These records have all had an ultrasonic cleaning in a solution of Tergi-Kleen which is the same solution used by the Library of Congress. Each vinyl protectant sleeve has a removable “last cleaned” sticker with a date on it. This label can be removed without damaging the poly cover. - After cleaning, every record was placed in a NEW archival quality inner paper sleeve or a NEW anti static vinyl inner sleeve. I did this so there would be no transfer of dirt from the old inner sleeve to the freshly cleaned record. In some cases I left the original inner sleeve included where it made sense but put the vinyl in a clean sleeve. - Each record has been placed in a clear hi-density polypropylene cover to protect the jacket. - These records have been kept in covered record crates, in protective jackets and stored inside. I think you’ll find these records are in great shape considering the age and frequency in which they were played. Enjoy!
