Condition:
Record: Excellent (it has only been played a couple of times but there are some surface "smears" and a couple of very light scratches which were actually there when I received the album. I wasn't demanding enough and didn't ask for a replacement! I cannot hear any audio degradation from them -cosmetic only)
Sleeve:  Near Mint (like new including inners)

Another Porcupine Tree collector's item from my personal collection.

From a pet- and smoke-free home. I grade records in line with the Record Collector Grading System, as follows (with the exception that I will never describe a used record as Mint, so I use "Near Mint" for used records which otherwise meet the "Mint" criteria):

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 the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

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, discolouration, etc.

FAIR The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
