My experience with Simply Vinyl has been much like yours. I have a rare few that are good, with most being disappointing.
I just did a quick search at EBAY, and there is a brand new USA Geffen SEALED at $29.00. It may close at more than that, but before I bought a Simply Vinyl, I would bid hard for the Geffen. My comments are made based on my complete collection of Nirvana original pressings and having disposed of one Nirvana on Simple Vinyl that was a total disappointment.
The Fleetwood Mac pressings I purchased on Simple Vinyl were so inferior to my original, I literally gave them away. I thought they would replace my antique pressings. However, in spite of being 20 plus years old, they destroyed the new "audiophile" Simple Vinyl pressings.
