Condition:
Vinyl/Labels : Good
There are quite a lot of light hairlines/surface marks visible; these are mostly superficial and hardly affect play. The record plays to a Very Good standard, with no serious playing faults, just some non-excessive, mild background at quiet sections. A thoroughly enjoyable listen.
Outer Slipcase: VG-
Some light creases and edge wear.
Inner Tray: Good
So often missing from these box sets, the hardest item to find, and this is the original! It has some wear & tear (edge wear/fraying), but is still completely intact and does its job of holding the book and record in place.
Book: VG
There is one crease to the front cover. All pages are clean and intact with no tears or creases.
Important Information:
Postage & Packaging
Records are packaged safely using strong stiff cardboard and extra bubble wrap to ensure they arrive in the same condition as in my description. I also remove record from outer sleeve and original inner sleeves, to prevent seam splits. I am a record collector myself and understand the importance of safe packaging to ensure safe delivery.
:Please note:
Postage prices will be greatly reduced if buying more than one record. In fact, if UK buyers buy three LPs, the postage is the same price as for posting one LP. Overseas buyers can also expect a much reduced rate when combining postage.
Good luck and happy bidding!
Prompt payment is much appreciated. Please pay within 3 days of auction ending.
You are are strongly advised to pay for items to be tracked if the value is over £20.00, and will be given this option when invoiced.
