Description

This is a vintage record that is still sealed in its factory shrink-wrap and thus has not been tested. I have it listed as "Mint" on the assumption that it is due to the fact that it is still sealed, but I can't make any guarantees that the record doesn't have any manufacturer's defects, etc.
Please review the pictures carefully for details regarding the condition of the jacket. The jacket is (obviously) buckling inside of the shrink wrap. Some of the pressure creating this will be alleviated when you remove the wrapping, but assume that the wavy quality won't go away completely. This buckling is the only issue that prompted me to grade this jacket as VG, but there are no rips, splits, creases, or corner dings otherwise. Aside from the wavy buckling the cover is in excellent condition.
This specific record was never released in the US so if you're a Madonna collector in the US then this is a great opportunity to score this gem and avoid the crazy shipping costs from the UK.

REGARDING SHIPPING: The default shipping option that you see is Media Mail which is inexpensive, but sometimes unpredictable with no guaranteed delivery time. I have shipped over 1000 records using Media Mail without any hassles, but there have been a few instances where the record took a month to arrive and was stuck at a sorting facility for two or more weeks. If you want a faster method with a guaranteed delivery time I suggest that you choose the Priority Mail option.

Grading System Definitions:
Mint (M) - Perfect condition. Completely clean, no marks and unplayed. Almost only used for factory sealed items. Occasionally used for open, unplayed records.
Near Mint / Excellent (NM/EX) - Nearly perfect with shiny gloss, plays perfectly with no imperfections. Typically only played a few times or less. Cover will have no more than very minor imperfections, showing only signs of slight handling. Covers should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc. 
Very Good Plus (VG+) - Record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. 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. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.
