Good lord this thing right here. Good. Golly. Miss. Molly ... so, ya, I love this album. I mean ... bring the Sonny heat! As for condition, this is not a top vinyl copy. However, if you need a go-to copy ... highly suggested.
See below for more detail:

VINYL: VG (7.5 of 10) Original Blue label, DG, no Inc on label. And I'm conflicted, because this thing plays VG+ ... however, there is some light scuffing. There are a handful of light scratches, even a long one or two ... but I'm telling ya, it sounds pretty VG+ to me ... I cleaned it up, and man. It sings pretty good. I mean, I'll give it a VG based on some visual-ness ... but I would have no hesitancy about grabbing this as a go-to playing copy. Thumbs up here.
COVER: VG+ (8.5 of 10) Great cover. Heavy cardboard -- Matte gloss still all there. A little big of creasing, and some general wear ... corners aren't as sharp as they used to be. But minimal soiling and wear. Overall, it's real nice. _________________________________________________________________ Now the standard messages:

GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.

CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.

TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve. 
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I dp describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
