Description

Up for sale is a Vinyl version of "The Queen Is Dead" by The Smiths.  This is an original 1986 US pressing on Sire Records (9 25426-1). 

Number of records: 1

Record Condition: VG/VG+.  Has a fair amount of light surface marks on both sides of album, but no pops, clicking or skips.  Some background noise can be heard during the 1st two verses of "I Know It's Over", and during the beginnings and endings of the other songs on side one;  this is not the case with side two, which plays fairly cleanly.

Sleeve Condition: Slight storage wear.  2" crease, about 2 1/2" up from bottom left corner of back cover, causes some bending of the front cover as well.  Some creases along spine and edges of cover.  Scuff near middle of opening edge of back cover.  Some wear on top left corner of back cover.   6" and 6 1/2" seam splits in the center of the sides of inner sleeve, with a 3" split in the center of the bottom edge. 

 

Everyone has a different set of grading criteria... So, to avoid any confusion, here's ours!

We basically follow the Goldmine Grading System

I do not tend to describe/grade the label on my records unless there is some obvious flaw... so if the label condition is important to you please ask me and I will let you know its condition!

 

Sealed: Only used for sealed records... Sealed records are assumed to be mint but, since they're sealed, I can't tell the condition for sure! It is good practice to guess the condition to be Near Mint.
Near Mint: Not perfect, but darn close! A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. This will most likely have occurred during packaging, or removing the record from the inner sleeve. Has been handled with extreme care. It should play without any noise over the flaw. The flaw should be very hard to see.
VG+: VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that don’t affect the sound are OK.
VG: Light scratches, slight background noise possible. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise won’t overpower the music otherwise.

Good: Record plays without skipping but does have surface noise. Scratches, scuffs and groove wear all possible on this condition.
