Let's hear some feedback on pressing quality and more importantly sound quality. Also are the sleeves of good quality?

Top notch pressings and stunning sound, Sleeves all still shrink wrapped. It doesn't get any better.

I'm currently playing Getz/Gilberto which is a Verve release from 2007 on 180gm virgin vinyl.

edit/update

I've checked my first 2 listens on discogs

This exact copy of Getz/Gilberto sells from €39 to €103

The Hank Mobley, again exact copy... Blue Note label sells for €77.40 to €172

Interesting Ivor. Four differences to my selection I think?

What are the 2 to the left of Alfie and Money Jungle?
