Artist: Ratt Title:  Ratt Label:  Time Coast TC 2203 Format: 12" 33 1/3 RPM vinyl 6-Song EP Condition: New - Factory Sealed                  

This is a still sealed original US pressing 12" vinyl 6-Song EP from 1983.  It is NOT the 1984 re-issue on Atlantic.  Since it is sealed I do not know which of the 2 silver Time Coast labels is on the vinyl.

     

The only distraction I see on this record is that the inner sleeve was not completely inside the cover when the shrink wrap was applied as it is partially showning on the front right hand side. (see image 1).

  1. Sweet Cheater

        Note:         This is a vinyl record NOT a CD!
     

Our record grading explained

A (+) or (-) following a grade is an indication of the more (-) or less (+) imperfections on a particular item.

SEALED (SS): You can be assured that the vinyl is as it was manufactured and has never been played. The cover may have slight corner ‘dings’ or possibly a cutout mark (cutout marks will ALWAYS be described). If I think that the cover of a sealed LP shows more than a small amount of wear I will describe the condition with two grades such as VG+/SS where the first grade indicates the condition of the sealed cover.

MINT (M): Mint means absolutely perfect. Nothing less can be described as mint. Even brand new purchases may not qualify as mint. I, personally, do not believe ANYTHING is perfect so the highest rating I give is Near Mint. Anyone can pick up a new item and find some kind of imperfection.

NEAR MINT (NM): It should look like it was just purchased and sound the same. Common imperfections found on items I grade as near mint would be very minor corner dings on the cover or vinyl imperfections caused during the manufacturing process that DO NOT affect play.

VERY GOOD (VG): As Rockin’ Records puts it – "Records in very good condition should have a minimum of visual or audible imperfections, which should not detract much from your enjoyment of owning them". Imperfections that may result in a VG rating include: Slight wear ring, possibly evidence of a removed (or still attached) sticker, minor writing on the cover, very small seam split (less than 1 inch?). The vinyl may have visual marks such as paper scuffs, fingernail marks, slight stacking/sliding scratches caused by records rubbing together. NOTE: Any record that has a scratch that can be felt with the edge of your little finger and can be heard as a constant ‘POP’ every time it is encountered, is NOT a VG record. Slight background static/hiss/clicks may be heard on a VG record.

GOOD (G): A record described as in Good condition will show definite signs of wear and tear, indicating that it was not properly taken care of by its former owner. Even so, records in good condition should play all the way through without skipping. IF A RECORD SKIPS, IT IS NOT IN GOOD CONDITION. Constant background static/hiss/clicks may be heard on a G record but it won’t over power the music. The cover should be complete but there will be seam splits, distracting marks/writing, and/or stickers.

FAIR (F): A record described as in Fair condition will show definite signs of abuse, indicating that it was abused by its former owner. Records in fair condition may occasionally skip when played. Frequent over powering background static/hiss/clicks/pops will be heard on an F record. It may also have scratches that can be felt with the edge of your little finger and can be heard as a constant ‘POP’ every time it is encountered. It really should not be played as it will damage the stylus. The cover may not be complete and there will be large seam splits, very distracting marks/writing, and/or stickers.

POOR (P): A record described as in Poor condition should have the vinyl cut from around the label and the label used as a coaster. The cover can’t hold the record any more because it is totally split apart or missing pieces.
