VINYL
Visual
Visually the record is NEAR MINT, superb unmarked vinyl, with no scratches or marks, no spindle marks on the label.
Even under a spotlight it looks like a new record.
Exceptional condition for a 39-year old record.
PLAYTEST
The LP plays superbly, quiet between tracks, no pops, bangs, jumping or sticking.
Just some feint background noise in the very quiet moments and a couple of soft pips. Playtest grade is EX+
COVER
The cover is a fully laminated gatefold, with all outer and inner surfaces in beautiful condition with a clean high-gloss finish, and is graded EX++,
with only a hint of feint partial ringwear impression on the front and back cover, that is hard to see.
The corners and edges and spine are all excellent.
Please see my feedback on selling LPs over the last couple of years.
The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners
