This CLASSICALLY COOL 4 LP BOX SET is in VERY GOOD+ shape overall & ready for you to spin them around on your Turntable! I recently listened to it & heard nothing but PERFECT PLAYING SUPER SWEET SOUNDS!!!!! Not one skip & barely any cracklin' to be heard!!! What my eyes & ears can find regarding wear or tear shows itself in the form of: THE OUTER BOX:  Light/moderate scuffing, smudging, &/or fading of the box... All edges & corners show light/moderate scuffing, nicking, &/or wear... THE INNER BOX: Light/heavy nicking, smudging &/or wear showing heavier on outer edge... SLEEVES: Lightish creasing along the open edges... Light/moderate circular wear from albums within... ALBUMS: Light random smudging &/or scratching... Potential light linting... BUT PERFECT PLAYING SUPER SWEET SOUNDS ARE WHAT YOU'LL HEAR :)
