Pink Floyd The Dark Side Of The Moon SHVL804A UK 1973 + Poster and stickers  - plays perfect. Condition is "Used". Dispatched with Royal Mail 1st Class.

Condition is used but very well looked after. Plays perfect as it needs to do for this music with large dynamic range. The LP is in near mint condition  & only ever played with a quality stylus that was tracked at 2gms. 

Catalogue no. SHVL 804A - from 1973  - Bearing the Prism label (see photos).   Date code  7303 TPS

The album Gatefold style cover which shows minor wear on the outside also includes the original poster and stickers. 

See the photos for detail.  There is a faint scratch just about visible on side 1 - I tried to get a photo but it didn't show up and it didn't cause any clicks when I listened to it carefully.  

If you are buying a record you want to buy the best available and I think this is as good an example as you will find.

Will be posted in a professional box. 

Because you are looking at this listing you know that there is nothing to beat the sound of vinyl record. I have recently played this and can confirm that there are no audible clicks and the sound is crystal clear throughout. The record has only ever played with 2gmtracking and kept clean.

The photos show the detail. The sleeve is in excellent condition with no tears and inner sleeve is the originals with no tears. Complete with poster and two stickers. 

On the grading system below I would grade this example as Near Mint. No flaws that I can see on the record and the sleeve including corners is very good - see photo. 

MINT: Perfect! This record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws at all. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains. No stickers address labels, writing on the covers or labels. No tears or seam splits. No wear to the cover or to the records.  

NEAR MINT-: this record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaw. The flaw is very hard to see. The cover looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork is close to perfect.

EXCELLENT : minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be slight scuffs but the Artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear). Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and must not be obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white with slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs.

VERY GOOD PLUS : Record shows wear, possibly surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster. Flaws must not cause any surface noise. COVERS: A clean cover, but may have small writing on it. The artwork looks clean with slightly more aging. The back of the cover usually gives away the age of the cover. Flat white paper may be slightly yellowed due to age. Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes. The corners can be slightly dog eared yet no defacing of the artwork. A VG+ cover should have no more than 3 flaws mentioned.

VERY GOOD : this record will look a bit worn, but it will STILL play very good but with some surface noise. The Dynamics should still be excellent, over powering the surface noise. A VG record will appear to have been played but still have some luster. The covers will look worn, used. There may be some seam splitting . There will be some ring wear, where the ink has begun to wear off. There may be some writing on the cover (still, no Large letters in magic marker).It will look aged.

GOOD : A good record will look well played, dull, greyish and possibly abused. However a Good record should still play. It may have distracting surface noise such as a crackle and may have some loss of dynamics caused from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any obtrusively loud pops or repeated clicks, caused by deep scratches. A Good cover may have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch tape.  

I would not offer a record that is not Very good or better for sale.
