ROXY MUSIC - The Studio Albums 2015 Box Set 
All 8 Roxy Music studio albums re-mastered on 180g vinyl in individual sleeves replicating the originals. Housed in a solid red slipcase with gold block lettering.
The Box is in very good condition with no marks, creases or damage other than a little colour fade which is on the spine mainly - see pics.
The individual album covers and sleeves are near mint save for two notable exceptions.  There is a tear on the top corner of the inner sleeve of Flesh & Blood (see photo) and on Avalon there is a minor manufacturing crease that is hardly noticable but I mention it for completeness and added a close up pic.
The inner sleeves are very stiff and fit tightly in the album covers, if they were mine I would use some anti-static inner sleeves to both protect them and make them easier to remove.
I have also included the best pic I can to show some 'marble' type vinyl surface patterns that are common to all of the albums to varying degrees.  The fact that my friend kept this set suggests they were of no consequence other than visually.
Carefully inspecting each album I would rate them (Discogs Ratings) as follows:-

ROXY MUSIC (VG - VG) FOR YOUR PLEASURE (VG+ - NM) STRANDED (VG+ - NM) COUNTRY LIFE (NM) SIREN (VG+ - NM) FLESH + BLOOD (VG - VG+) MANIFESTO (VG+) AVALON (VG+)
This Box weighs in at around 4kg.
These albums have come from a late friend's collection.  I always attempt to be realistically conservative with grading, as it's important to me that you are happy with your purchase.  Should you for any reason not be, please don't hesitate to contact me.
