Great copy - seen little use and carefully handled and my play-check at volume found practically nothing to fault the strong, crystal clear cut - just a (very) occasional touch of low-level surface - barely worth a mention and I did not clean this copy as it looks so immaculate so this will no doubt disappear after a clean/few spins - best copy I’ve heard in a long time
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD
Apart from some rub to the deep glossy sheen of the laminate (which looks more like a manufacturing issue rather than wear) and bumping to the corner, the sleeve is in great shape and the inner pocket which houses the records is perfect - no edge splits
BOOKLET: EXCELLENT+
Some soft creases to the corners - nothing really - otherwise clean and fresh with all pages intact and firmly together
