Up for auction is this Led Zeppelin double album, Physical Graffiti (SS 2-200). 
The LPs are very beautiful. At first glance, they look new. I have rated them excellent overall for these reasons: There is a white manufacturing blemish on "Houses of the Holy" (see the last picture). However, I played the entire song and it sounds great. No issues whatsoever. There is some excess vinyl around the hole on side two (see the second to last picture). The hole is a tight fit, requiring rocking back and forth when taking the LP off the turntable, but it does not impact play. There are a few very fine scratches here and there and a rather long scuff on side three (it's not immediately noticeable). I played several songs, and they sounded excellent, with some light crackle here and there, but nothing overwhelming. My rating is based on looks and a limited play test. 
The jacket and inner sleeves are in very good condition. There is a name in ink on the front (see the first photo, top left corner). However, it's barely noticeable. In fact, I didn't even see it until I photographed the cover. There is some discoloration that looks like coffee stains inside the main jacket (see photo), the two inner sleeves, and on the lyrics sheet (see photo). The outside of the jacket and sleeves are not stained. The staining is most noticeable on the lyrics sheet. 
I will ship to the US only. Auction winner: Please pay promptly (within a day or two). 
Note: I'm not looking to make a profit when I sell an LP. I collect LPs and sell those that I no longer want (usually because I have another copy that I prefer). I do my best to represent them accurately.
