Vinyl & Audio Condition Report (EX):
Sides C, E, & F: Pristine, beautiful mirror-like high gloss.
Side D: Displays a cosmetic paper scuff from storage that does not affect playback.
Sides A & B: Feature a couple of small, minor factory pressing dimples. These have been fully play-tested on a high-end Linn LP12 setup and they play through entirely silently with no audio impact whatsoever.
Overall, all 3 discs retain incredible gloss and deliver a beautiful and dynamic listen with no skips or loud pops.
Sleeve & Inners Condition (VG+): The gatefold cover is structurally excellent, rigid, and holds its colors beautifully. It features a minor, light corner crease on the bottom edge (clearly documented in the photos).
The original paper inner sleeves are included; one features a small, minor tear near the center label die-cut hole as pictured, but they remain clean and structurally sound.
Shipping & Professional Packaging:
To completely eliminate the risk of seam-splitting during transit, all 3 vinyl discs will be carefully removed from the main gatefold pockets prior to packaging.
Shipped securely in a heavy-duty cardboard record mailer with thick internal protective stiffeners.
Sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48 for fast, reliable, fully insured delivery.
UK buyers only. Please inspect all detailed photos before purchasing.
