I have play tested it, in terms of grading it’s VG+ it plays through really well, I found the crackles to only be very subtle in the quieter moments & between tracks & definitely no sticking or jumps. The sleeve would be a very good grading, but has been adorned with the stickers originally inserted. The posters are very good, but there are traces of where it was stuck to a wall.
