Description
Pink Floyd ?– The Dark Side Of The Moon
Third USA issue. I cannot be certain that this is from the infamous New York "Studio 54" Nightclub collection, but the writing on the labels, and sleeve say this is from a Studio 54 somewhere in the USA.Perhaps someone in the USA could track this distinct writing down, and be rewarded with an iconic and unique issue of this Rock classic. I am not going to take into consideration (up or down) this added writing when grading this record, so keep that in mind.
The sleeve is in VG+ condition The vinyl record and labels are in VG+ condition.

GOOD
56 to 68
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated, but the record will still play through, and it will not be a completely unpleasant listening experience, even at the bottom of this grade (56).
The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR
41 to 55
The record is still playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even stick, skip or jump.. This is starting to be an unpleasant listening experience at the top of the grade (55) and will not be a pleasant listening experience at all by the end of it (41).
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR
25 to 40
The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD
0 - 24

The Sleeve is non existent (0) or what is left, is only just recognisable.
A few words about postage.
Within Australia, the best value for multiple purchases is a 5KG satchel, where as many as 15 to 20 LPs can be posted for $22.00 registered post. (well packed in a box, inside the satchel)
My Policies on postage are simple.
The user pays.
I package well.
Any item that you purchase without choosing the option of "Signed for" or "Registered" Post, is at your risk.
I do accept that "signed for" can be expensive, especially internationally, but whether you take the option of this insurance, is entirely up to you.
I do not wish to withdraw the option of standard postage for the cheaper records, but it must be at your risk.
