Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT
All are perfectly clean with just a handful of light spindle trails to the side 1 & side 3 centre holes, but no wear or damage to any.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Immaculate, deep-gloss playing surface which are NR MINT/unmarked in strong daylight with just a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp.
Sound Quality: MINT
This copy has been barely, if ever played and the sound is warm, clean & clear throughout with no audible faults or wear of any kind whatsoever.
Cover: NEAR MINT
Such a hard cover to find in this condition. The felt finish is an unfaded deep red colour with no signs of wear whatsoever to the front panel. The rear is just as fine with a hint of a disc impression but certainly nothing significant. . All seams and the unworded spine are also in perfect condition.

GRADINGS
MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised, as Sealed or Unplayed will be mint.
EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, possibly with light surface marks but there will be very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD + The record may have scuff marks and signs of some wear but will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only barely detectable crackles or pops. A slight noise at the beginning is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless. Definitely no scratches or gouges that a touch with a dry finger can feel. The cover may only have the slightest signs of normal wear.
VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKED IN PROPER MAILERS WITH STIFFENERS
