Description
Artist: Metallica
Album Title: Ride The Lightning
Year: 1984
Resource codes: Megaforce MRI 769
Vinyl Condition: Very Good +
Sleeve Condition: Very Good +
NOTE: Very hard to find 1st press...Record and sleeve are both very clean but side 2 does have a scuff as shown in the picture. I do not know if, or how it affects play.
Combined Shipping: I can combine up to 4 single LPs for the same shipping cost.
All albums listed were obtained by me in the 1980's and early 1990's.
I am in NO way an expert at rating vintage vinyl, so I try to use the scale below to help describe the condition of the the record.
- Mint (M) - Perfect, unplayed condition, sometimes brand new and sealed.
- Near Mint (NM or M-) - Almost perfect condition. Likely unplayed, no imperfections during play. No obvious signs of wear; cover, poster, inserts, etc. have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable flaws.
- Very Good Plus (VG+) - Clear signs of play and that it has been taken good care of. Cosmetic flaws such as light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect play. Barely noticeable ring wear, discoloring, or other cosmetic defects. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner.
- Very Good (VG) - Slightly more flawed than VG+ records. Noticeable surface noise, but not to the point of overpowering the audio. Noticeable groove wear, light scratches that can be felt with a fingernail, may affect play. Labels and LP covers may contain writing, tape, or stickers.
- Good (G), Good Plus (G+) - Plays without skipping, but contains significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. Covers and sleeves contain seam splits, usually on the bottom or spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, and other flaws are also noticeable.
- Poor (P), Fair (F) - Record is cracked, warped, and is almost guaranteed to skip or repeat. The sleeve or jacket is water damaged, split on all seems, and contains heavy wear and writing. The cover barely keeps the vinyl inside it.
