Description
Vinyl was play tested through Focal Elegia's and it played as EX, numerically a 93 which I use as the very top of the EX range with the most noticeable issues being a bit of surface noise at the start of A1 and B1, overall it's probably more NM- than EX+. Visually it is close to NM- as the play but I'm conservatively scoring it as EX. It's really NM- though.
The sleeve is scored as EX, probably more EX- but 100% better than VG+. It is super glossy, as is one of the inserts, so you can see every little thing especially if you angle the cover. There is very light ring wear, a pair dimples on the bottom seam with the longest running 5mm, light corner wear, running in from the spine and typically hidden by the OBI are 5 creases with the longest being 12mm and 4 on the rear. Somehow, there is a bit more wear to the top seam than the bottom. The inserts show light wear, more noticeably the glossed one where you can see every wrinkle. Based on all of this I am scoring the sleeve an 83 (although straight on at the right angle it looks more like NM- anyway).
Album will be mailed in a cardboard mailer between cardboard with bubble wrap. If you have any questions please let me know and thanks for looking!
