I just got this record on ebay. It has an inner stress crack that goes from the center of the vinyl to near the edge. The crack is not separated, but it is visible on both sides of the record. The seller refuses to take the record back (he claims the crack was not there because he inspected the record with a magnifying glass before he sent it). I buy lesser condition records but not cracked records. I would like to resell this at my cost to recoup my loss.

The record is a decent play copy. Visually it is about G, it has decent gloss. Both sides have some gouges near the start of the record -- they are not deep (barely feelable) but they are wide enough to call gouges and they cause clicking at the start of both tracks. I included a full mp3 of the amazing love side and a part mp3 of the funk side so you can hear for yourself. The labels are also dirty, but are not marked up or torn. This would be a decent copy for someone who doesn't care about cracks like I do.

I would need $100 for this plus $6 shipping to Europe or $3 shipping to the US. PM me if interested. Attached are audio samples. Thanks for your interest.

hang on a minute..doesn't that mean you actually wanna make a small profit on your broken record?

I'm not making any profit, I'm losing money and not recouping my full losess. You're not considering my shipping costs (stated in the auction) and my paypal fees (when the new buyer pays me). Also, the biggest seller here buys mainly on ebay to resell at a profit, which I'm not doing. Record is on hold now, by the way.

any cracked/gauged/nacked records should be put in a frame and mounted...........on the wall,to remind you of other peoples gradings.

That's what i do... :thumbsup: along with their name and 3 darts at arms length..

Don't know if you were referring to me (biggest?) but 99% of all records I buy off Ebay are to resell on at a profit because it's my full time job, selling records. Just thought I'd better clear that up.
