NOTE: All records I list are from my personal archive.

They have been shelved upright in a clean, cool dry, smoke-free environment. Attempts to capture a clear photo of the record condition has proved fruitless.

Because of this I'm grading on the low end to issure the buyer the best accurate description for the most enjoyable listening experience. Sound quality is excellent and playback is flawless unless otherwise stated in description.


*The product is a 1983 LP record of The Police's album "Synchronicity" on purple translucent vinyl. The very clean glossy record is (EX). Side One is super clean. Side Two has some very light superficial surface scuffs and hairline marks barely visible. Cover is (EX) with some creases on two corners. Printed inner sleeve is (EX) with small seam separations on two edges. It includes a 7" single "Every Breath You Take" record and sleeve in (EX) condition. This rock album falls under the alternative genre and was manufactured in the United States.
