Description

Please read the entire listing from start to finish to avoid any misunderstandings

IMPORTANT NOTE: I have been a buyer of vinyl records on Ebay and elsewhere online for quite some time so I know well all pain and frustration the buyers get due to incorrect or misleading descriptions of records provided by some sellers (even 100 % positive - my experience) that unfortunately becomes an increasing problem on Ebay. So my description is made from a buyer`s and not from a seller`s standpoint. My goal is to sell and make purchase pleasant to a buyer otherwise why buy music.

Ultra rare 1st pressing which is normally found with the turquoise sleeve. This has the Superhype label credit and uncorrected matrixes so a collector`s find:

Matrices 588171 A//1 B//1

Only the very first pressings have the UNCORRECTED A1/B1 matrixes. All subsequent issues (including most of those with Superhype credits) have the second 8 crossed out and then re-etched above. This is a very rare pressing.

Vinyl: The vinyl has numerous fine marks all over it and various other marks and scratches, including some long ones. The good news is that it plays much better than it looks. I have played the whole record and it plays through with no jumps skips or sticking at all. it has some crackle and background noise and some clicks, but nothing overpowering. So my grading would be as follows:

Visual grade: Very Good

Play-grade: Very Good Plus (+)

For labels assesment please see pictures provided which speak for themselves

Sleeve: It has various signs of age and use although it is fully intact with no splits or tears. It has creases and discolouration on both sides, and the rear also has some sellotape residue and spill marks. There is very little wear to the edges, and although the spine is a bit flattened, it is 100% readable.

Grading is based on the Record Collectors Grading System.

PACKAGING

LPs are packaged in a manner to ensure safe traveling using stiffeners and professional envelopes to ensure safe arrival in the same condition as they leave. Records are removed from the sleeve in order to prevent seam splits in transit.
