----------------------------------


Press Info: 1983 UK 3rd Press

"Third pressing without band's name "The Smiths" on the cover, B-side remastered by "Porky"/, and reverting to the "dome" labels. Identifiable by wider B-side grooves: the dead-wax/runout is 1cm wide."

Vinyl Grade: VG+

The record has clear and present hairlines. Visually does not look like a VG+ but the imperfections don't seem to affect playback whatsoever. Plays VG+ throughout. I listened to the whole thing and it sounds great and is super clear/clean. You won’t be displeased


Cover Grade: VG+

Overall VG+ but the back has these these types of marks on it. Its like peeled lamination


**All records will include a new inner sleeve and plastic outer sleeve 


----------------------------------


GRADING SCALE: 


(Records are graded from sight)


SEALED / MINT - Record jacket is sealed. Disc is sold ?as-is.?


NM - Super clean record with basically no imperfections. Appears unplayed or barely played at all. I?d use this rating extremely infrequently


EX - Basically either spotless visually or sounds extremely clean. 


VG++ - Has extremely few light marks. Very clean


VG+ - Has some imperfections, such as hairlines or scuff, but looks clean and plays well


VG - Similar to VG+ but has more imperfections. Records VG and up will not typically have any scratches deep enough to be felt. 


VG- - Fair amount of imperfections or scratches that may affect playability. 


VG-- - Plethora of scratches scattered throughout. Literally scratches/hairlines everywhere.


G - Imperfections and scratches throughout including scratches that cause playback issues and can be felt. 


*I usually will give either a quick listen to the record or possibly the whole thing to give a better description of the record you are receiving. I will mention in the description if I have listened to the record or listened to the whole thing. So if I didn?t mention I listened to it in the description, assume I didn?t. 


**I dont grade records considering the spindle marks. I might not even mention it but if it catches my eye I will mention so. If that is an issue for you, ask ahead of time.
