VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
My play-check at loud volume revealed no major audio issues of note and the record plays beautifully throughout - exceptionally clean, even on the quietest moments - superb copy
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
The fully textured gatefold is in great shape with just some light knocks to the corners and some rubbing to the bottom spine corner which has damaged the surface slightly otherwise, lovely condition
VERTIGO INNER : EXCELLENT
Very clean with no seam splits and only age-related discolouration to the edges and a light biro mark on the bottom of the flipback side
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WITH THE VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY 'KNIFING' DURING TRANSIT
A PROTECTIVE POLY SLEEVE, NEW INNER SLEEVE WITH ANTI-STATIC LINER, QUALITY BOX (NOT ENVELOPE) MAILER AND AMPLE STIFFENERS ARE ALWAYS USED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY
