I purchased this set new in 2014. Unwisely, I removed the shrink from the box and opened the records. Vinyl remains in the black factory anti-static sleeves and is all unplayed however because the vinyl is open I am scoring it at near mint. All covers remain in the shrink and show only nominal wear with the exception of Number Of The Beast where there is a separation that runs about 1" on the top seam and collectively I score the jackets themselves as near mint. The box (under the sleeve grading) itself I will score as excellent, numerically an 83 like a solid B- because of a couple of issues. First when looking at the front and back cover from certain angles you can see light marks (that the shrink would have protected). On the top left front there is a light diagonal crease that runs about 1". When looking at the spine of the box on what would be the top left corner there is a small rub abrasion where some white can be seen through the red, it's very small but noticeable upon a close inspection. Finally when looking at the box from behind on the top left corner there is white spot (little bigger than the tip of a pencil) through the red. This all having been said, the box is really in excellent shape. Albums will be mailed outside of the jackets and the box itself will be wrapped separately within the shipping box. If you have any questions please let me know and thank you for looking!
