Please READ everything carefully and review all photos before buying!!! 
I bought these new when they came out. I only played them a few times, mostly to record to tape so I could listen in my car. The rest of the time the records have lived in the box and the box has lived in a box with other records. 
I'm not a record grading expert but I will describe the condition as best I can. In addition I will note that as I have been reducing my record collection, when I take them to the used record store (such as in Salt Lake City - Randy's Records or Graywhale) they remark on what excellent condition my records are in and give me top dollar.
The Box: The box is in great shape but has a few small nicks here and there. Much better condition than others I have seen here on ebay. 
The Sleeves: You can see from the photos that overall the sleeves look very good. In spite of or because of being in a box with other records the sleeves have slight impression marks where the record is and there is wear on the sides and bottom. The sleeves are very thin paper and as a result the record went through the bottoms when being put back in and each sleeve has a 2 to 3 inch slit on the bottom. Some of the sleeve sides have about a one inch slit where the record went through on the side. If I hadn't been on the tail end of using records in 1990 I would have put the records in a special lined sleeve as with my prior records. 
The Records: The records are unmarked with one exception. Since I can only put 12 photos in the listing and there are 12 record sides, I can only put a few as examples but if you want to see more photos of the rest of the sides you can send me a message. I tested playing a couple spots on each record and they sounded great. All in all excellent condition! I did an A/B test comparing it to the CDs and the records sound better! Go figure, right?!  The one exception in condition is that on record four it has a strange pencil point size bump/blister on each side (see photo) in the same spot. It was either a manufacturing defect or happened sometime in the later years for unknown reasons. I only noticed it on close inspection when I was preparing the records for this sale. The bump goes through Kashmir on side one and No Quarter on side 2. When I played through it sounds like a skip. 
The Booklet: The 36 page, color booklet is in mint condition. 
The price includes a packing and handling charge since I pack it with bubble wrap and padding to ensure it does not move in the box and stays intact in transit. I also get shipping insurance.
Ask any questions and let me know if you want to see more photos. 
Shipping: US and Global multiple options.      I don't use Media Mail shipping option to avoid damage. 
NO Returns.
