CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A clean & unworn set with a small collection of light, well-aimed spindle trails around each centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Extremely clean & unworn playing surfaces which retain all of their deep-gloss factory shine with just a faint turntable ring mark on side 1, but no other noticeable marks or wear in strong daylight. Closer examination directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals little more than a few wispy paper hairlines and a sparkling rainbow shine.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +
This great sounding copy has received minimal careful play on quality equipment and is free from any significant or major audible faults. My playcheck detected a touch of light background during some of the album's few quiet passages but no clicks, pops or any other noticeable distractions.
Cover: EXCELLENT
A clean & firm example which retains a sparkling high-gloss front panel laminate bearing slight storage rubbing but no 'thumbnails' or any other creasing.
There is some shelfwear rubbing to the lower right corner but both opening edges are sharp & undamaged. The easily worn rear panel is unworn & free from any ringwear, writing or missing paper.
Both seams are smooth & unstressed and the spine is clean and perfectly worded.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
