The album spent twenty-two weeks on the UK Albums Chart, peaking at No. 2. It also reached No. 70 on the US Billboard 200 chart, and was certified Gold by the RIAA in late 1990. It has sold consistently well ever since and has received unanimous critical acclaim, with NME listing it as the greatest album of all time in 2013.

Condition

The Album has never been played and is in Mint Condition. I Normally Test Play all the Albums I sell but due to there being 5 Albums I do not have enough time to listen to them all, I have visually inspected them and they are all in Perfect Condition. All the Covers, Inner Sleeves and Box are also in Mint Condition, all of which can be seen in the photographs I have downloaded. I will sell this Box Set as Mint.

GRADING GUIDE

This is a guide as to how I grade the Records that I sell, everyone has their own opinions as to the condition of a Record but this should give a good indication so you can make an informed decision.

M (Mint): Never been played or item still sealed. Cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster (i.e. contents) are in perfect condition.

M – (Mint Minus): In brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Cover and contents nearly perfect.

EX + (Excellent Plus):  The Vinyl is better than EX but not quite near mint, possibly the odd super feint sleeve removal mark visible in strong light, but no proper surface marks. The sleeve may have super feint creasing or very slight handling marks but still in great shape.

Ex (Excellent): Shows some signs of being played, light marks, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Cover and contents might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VG + (Very Good Plus): Better than Very Good: Has been played but no significant deterioration in sound quality despite some surface marks and light scratches. Some wear and tear on cover and contents, as in corner/edge/ring wear, without any major defects though.

VG (Very Good): Has been played many times but no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and light scratches. Normal wear and tear on cover or contents, without any major defects.

GD + (Good Plus): Better than Good: Sound quality has deteriorated but with no distortion. Some scratches and occasional more noticeable scratches that can be felt. Cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges but not spine splits or discolouration.

GD (Good): Sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion. Mild scratches. Cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc.

F (Fair): Still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise - it may even jump. Cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

P (Poor): Will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc. Cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
