Description

DESCRIPTION: This is a white label test pressing of the the first self-titled album by Legend from 1981. There are at least six bands by the name of 'Legend' - this one is the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) band formed in 1980, and hailing from Jersey.

The vinyl looks near-mint under normal lighting. Under a bright LED light, I can see a single, faint superficial hairline on side B which does nothing - the vinyl plays loud and clear throughout. The labels are also clean with just the letters 'A' and 'B' handwritten around the spindle holes.

The glossy cover has light ringwear on both the front and back panels and a lightly creased corner. There is light wear towards the bottom of the spine, which is partially obscuring the catalogue number, but all other spine text is legible. The top and bottom seams have light wear, but none of the seams are split. Comes with a plain poly-lined inner sleeve which has all seams intact
 
SHIPPING: I do not use eBay's Global Shipping Program; the shipping costs quoted in my listings are the actual cost of shipping from the UK. I do not profit from shipping and I always refund any overpayment for shipping. I do ship internationally, but note that the shipping cost quoted in the listing is for international shipping to the US. For other destinations, please contact me for a shipping quote or, alternatively, just pay the automatic invoice that you will recieve and I will refund any overpayment.

GRADING: Unless a record is sealed, I play-grade everything on a high-end turntable. My grading is strict, so even if you are buying a 'VG+' record from me, the chances are that you are actually buying a very nice keeper copy. Nevertheless, grading is quite subjective; so, if you feel that I haven't graded something properly, please contact me immediately. As a collector of vinyl myself, I know how important customer satisfaction is and I will do everything I can to resolve any issues.

PACKAGING: I do not charge for packaging costs. All records are packed well in sturdy record mailers with additional cardboard for protection. To prevent any seam splits during transit, I always ensure that records are packed outside of their covers.
