Description

I bought each of these albums when they were first released, but several years ago my house flooded during a hurricane. Due to this, some of my records were damaged and others were completely fine. 
The album "The Suburbs" was water damaged, so the sleeve is wrecked, but I wanted to include it in case someone wanted the lyrics sheet or something. I'd be happy to sell it discs only if you don't want the messed up sleeve. The discs themselves work flawlessly, and they were not played often, just a handful of times, 5 or 6 at most.
The sleeve for Neon Bible is in decent condition, VG to VG+. The B side of the first disc skips at track 2. Other than this issue, the rest are fine. I also didn't listen to this album much, maybe just 3 - 5 times, so I don't know how it got damaged.
Funeral sleeve is tattered along the edges, but the vinyl is VG to VG+, plays perfect, no skips. I did listen to it the most out of all the albums, but it plays perfectly.
