As with most of my vinyl, I have owned this from new and it is unplayed. It has been kept in a protective sleeve from new and has been very well looked after. The sleeve is in excellent condition, but there are just one or two very minor creases/marks. The a-side of the vinyl is mint condition, but unfortunately the b-side has some manufacturing flaws in the form of pitting. There are around 20 small (1mm diameter) pit-marks. As it's unplayed I can't tell you how badly they affect playback, but I'm guessing they might cause a little bit of jumping. They might not, but I can't promise.
Nevertheless, as collector's items go, this one is definitely worth having, in spite of the flaw.
If you're unhappy with it, just send it back in the condition I sent it and I will refund your winning bid. Sorry, but you'll have to pay the return postage.
I'm still gradually listing my entire Smiths/Moz collection to fund my own musical adventure, and will always try to combine postage for multiple purchases.
