CONDITION

Box Slipcase: EXCELLENT +

A 1st class example which is still very much in-shape & is free from any significant or major wear

  Both front & rear panels are clean and retain an excellent high-gloss finish, undulled by storage rubbing or poor handling. The only significant sign of wear is a light wrinkle line part-way along the upper edge. All of the exposed outer edges are sharp with just a few small 'pushes' but no tears or feathering to any. 

Both upper and lower ends are uncrushed, unworn & undamaged.

Outer Tray: EXCELLENT 

Clean & fully intact with slight wear to the exposed outer edges which is visible in the images above. Both of the fold-over inner-flaps are uncreased and unworn.

Inner Tray: EXCELLENT + 

This, the most fragile component is in superb shape with just a single tear to one of the corners where the book sat. All of the fold-over edges are fully intact making it one of the best example you could hope to find.

Book: EXCELLENT

A 100% complete example with a clean jacket which has lost a little of its shine due to storage, but is free from any major faults. Inside all pages are undamaged and none loose or missing.

The spine has slight wear along its upper edge but is 'uncracked' and clearly worded.

Disc

Labels: NEAR MINT

A superb untarnished pair which bear just a small handful of tiny, well-aimed spindle trails around each unworn centre hole.

Visual: NEAR MINT

Pristine deep-gloss playing surface which are totally unmarked and 'as new' in strong daylight light with just a few wispy inner-sleeve removal paper hairlines visible directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp. Both sides of this superb copy are 100% flat on the turntable when playing.

Sound Quality: NEAR MINT

This exceptional sounding copy has been played just two or three times on top-quality equipment only, and the sound is clean, warm & wonderful throughout. My careful playcheck found absolutely no evidence of any groove/playwear distortion or a single clicks, pop or tick. In fact, apart from a touch of normal low-level background between tracks, there really is nothing to fault.

Cover: EXCELLENT -

A clean & firm example with some light storage rubbing to front and rear panel which has reduced the laminate gloss somewhat, along with four small 'thumbnail' wrinkles on the front panel only. There are tiny rubs to each corner's extremity and a small handful of tiny 'pushes' to the opening edges, but no tears to either.

Both seams and the spine are unstressed, unsplit and the spine all of the wording is clean & unworn.

Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT

Clean & flat with a few gentle wrinkles from storage but no writing, seam splits or tears.

Poster: EXCELLENT +

Clean, factory folded & unhung with just a few wrinkles in the upper right corners. The printing is a little off-set which accounts for the slightly out-of-focus appearance.
