$

103

This record, as well as the rest listed, were acquired on my recent trip to the UK (specifically in Manchester). I found these records at antique stores, charity shops, record stores as well as buying small collections from people. I have records (mostly original pressing) by Prince, The Smiths, Joy Division, New Order, Talking Heads, Queen, U2, Grace Jones and many others. I also bought a small batch of 45s (The Smiths, Blondie, David Bowie) that I will be listing soon. Feel free to take a look at the rest of the listings on my page.

Press Info: UK 1st Press - Misprint

Vinyl Grade: VG--

          Scratches and marks throughout. Side A looks worse then Side B but both still riddled with marks. None deep enough to be felt. You hear the crackle and pops as the record plays. Record plays solid. At least a lot better than it looks. Id say it plays VG- overall. The issues are generally noticeable while playing throughout. Sometimes more obvious sometimes less obvious. 

Cover Grade: VG/VG-

          The reason I added the VG- to the grade was because on the top seam, the middle area is rubbed down quite heavily. Without that, I would say it was a VG. Corner wear. Slight ring wear. This scratch line on front cover. Creases around the seams and Spine

Inner Sleeve Condition: Solid condition. Looks great.

**All records will include a new inner sleeve and plastic outer sleeve

GRADING SCALE: 

(Records are graded from sight)

SEALED / MINT - Record jacket is sealed. Disc is sold “as-is.”

NM - Super clean record with basically no imperfections. Appears unplayed or barely played at all. I’d use this rating extremely infrequently

EXC - Basically spotless visually or sounds extremely clean. 

VG++ - Has extremely few light marks. Very clean

VG+ - Has some imperfections, such as hairlines or scuff, but looks clean and plays well

VG - Similar to VG+ but has more imperfections. Records VG and up will not typically have any scratches deep enough to be felt. 

VG- - Fair amount of imperfections or scratches that may affect playability. 

VG-- - Plethora of scratches throughout.

G - Imperfections and scratches throughout including scratches that cause playback issues and can be felt

*I usually will give either a quick listen to the record or possibly the whole thing. I will mention in the description above if I have.
