Phantom Of The Opera Vinyl Record - Michael Crawford 1987 SEALED Original 2-LP
Record Grade: STILL SEALED, presumed NM (I don't use the M grade) Sleeve Grade VG+
This is a sealed original 1987 pressing of Phantom Of The Opera. The sleeve does show some wear, so I've graded it VG+. Please examine pictures carefully to assess condition. There is a bump on the bottom seam, as well as a mark on the face of the cover (in the eye of the mask) that caused a light abrasion on the cover itself. The bottom left corner of the shrink is torn with the corner poking through and there's a small crease on the top edge. I can also see some light indentations in the back cover. They are mostly just on the shrink, but some of these indentations were deep enough to very lightly indent the cover--it's difficult to tell how much. There is also a very small (pencil-tip-sized) hole in the shrink on the back cover, near the edge where it wraps around the middle of the cover. The hype sticker also has some light wear. Please examine pictures carefully.

I grade LPs based on a conservative interpretation of the Goldmine standard. This means that a VG+ record is in very nice shape and should have little to no surface noise barring an occasional moment here and there. A record with sustained surface noise will be at best a VG. All records are play-graded since not all surface noise can be detected visually. All records are shipped in new Whiplash mailers with cardboard backing with the sleeved record outside of the jacket to prevent seam splits.
Below is more thorough info on my grading system:
NM: Surfaces essentially look new. This is the highest rating I give used records.
VG+: Very nice shape. May have a few stray very light hairlines and/or light paper scuffs visible under bright light. Will have little to no surface noise barring an occasional moment here and there. No feelable marks.
VG: Has hairlines and/or paper scuffs and has audible surface noise particularly between songs and during quieter passages.
G+: Has more pronounced hairlines and paper scuffs and may have a few small feelable marks, but still no skips.
