Get Out Of Town

The record is, visually, a strong VG+. There is a tiny hairline scuff ojn Side A. There is a scuff on Side 2. Grooves look fine and the record looks like it has been little played. I spot played the record. It played with a very light hiss surface noise that seemed inherent in the pressing There were 3 light ticks at the beginning of "I Can't Get Started". There is a very tiny dig or pressing flaw near the begining of " Get Out Of Town". It popped 4 times. The music was strong and the record played VG+.

The cover is VG+ . The front looks very nice with light wear and is still glossy. There are some small spot in the upper right corner where the laminate is missing, probably from a sticker removal. Top and bottom seams intact with moderate wear. The spine is split and untaped the entire length. Spots of heavy wear at the corners. Back looks great and shows only minimal wear. Date written in small pen numbers at upper right and another date blacked out with magic marker app 1 inch x 1/4 inch. Looks better than grade.

I attempt to grade records conservatively and accurately, providing the information buyers need. I will ship record promptly, properly packed, upon receipt of payment. Satisfaction is guaranteed, no hassles. Payment is expected within 7 days. I can only accept Paypal as Ebay will no longer allow sellers to eccept checks or money orders.

This record and all the other 10 inch LPs I am listing this week was play graded using a stereo cartridge. They would all play better and with less noise, using a mono cartridge.
