Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

I just got a gyp "Still Sealed" record

Arrived last night (eopn. Graham Central Station) The eBay claim was "Still sealed, cut corner." But ....the sealing film was neatly closed over the cut corner! AH- hahahahahah!

In the old days, I watched them cut the corners of cutout LP's with a Skil-Saw. This was clearly cut then re-sealed afterwards. No big deal- I don't expect every trashBay vendor to have perfect products-as long as the cost reflects the condition ultimately. It might have been done 40 years ago and this dealer didn't know. The record inside is mint- still has vinyl flash in the hole, probably never spun. Good enough.

But it leads me to conclude "still sealed" ads are best assumed to be 99% BS.
