Cover in solid VG++ condition with minimal wear and tear; flat with no creases. Only detracting feature is a slight chip in the top of the cover on the reverse (see photo). Vinyl sight-grades M-, and playback is problem free. A really nice copy!

A postscript about my music auctions. I am not a dealer. I am (or was) a serious private collector. Almost all the records I'm now offering on eBay are ones I acquired myself in the 1970s and early 1980s, and most have remained unplayed and basically in a state of physical 'stasis' during the 30+ years since.

I put a lot of time and effort into my pictures. I want to make sure they accurately depict the item being auctioned – like they would look if you were actually holding them in your hands. Sometimes a mere photo won't do, though, so I'll make scans of the cover. (I do this by default for my most valuable offerings.)

Re: grading. I have very high standards for both the physical condition of an album and its playback characteristics. I strive to use the most accurate language possible in my descriptions, and compared to most other sellers, I tend to under-grade my records. (E.g. what I would grade as 'good' would probably be described by the majority of others here as 'excellent'.) Seriously, if I say an album is nice, be assured, it is really nice!

I also take the greatest of care packing your purchases for shipment. I only use brand new cardboard shipping boxes that are custom made for record albums. Additionally, I use pre-formed cardboard inserts as stiffeners and bubble wrap inside the box for maximum protection. Rest assured: I will make certain that you receive your record in exactly the same condition as it is shown/described here.
