Vinyl is VG Jacket is VG Inner Sleeve is F
please see playback grading descriptions below
I played the entire record and there were no skips or repeats. You'll hear light surface noise though between tracks and during softer passages/fades. Most of the time this record plays a solid VG+. There are NO deep scratches: only a few really faint hairline scratches. I didn't perform any kind of ultrasonic cleaning or anything like that so if you have access to such a machine there's a good chance that you can improve the playback notably since the surfaces of this record look so good.
The inner sleeve is barely intact. Two seams are almost completely split and the remaining side seam is holding on for dear life.
Please review the pictures for further details on the condition of the jacket.
Your record will be shipped in a cardboard LP mailer and wrapped in shipper's wrap inside for further moisture protection. The record will be removed from the jacket and placed in the inner sleeve outside of the cover (and secured) so that it doesn't slide around inside the jacket and create damage during transit. If the record has a unique picture sleeve the record will be placed in a generic sleeve for shipping.
If you have any special packing requests contact me BEFORE making payment so that I can adjust the shipping costs accordingly. Please do not bother to send me a message with packing instructions after payment as it will be disregarded.
REGARDING SHIPPING: The default shipping option that you see is Media Mail which is inexpensive, but sometimes unpredictable with no guaranteed delivery time. I have shipped over 2000 records using Media Mail without any hassles, but there have been a few instances where the record took a month to arrive and was stuck at a sorting facility for two or more weeks. If you want a faster method with a guaranteed delivery time I suggest that you choose the Priority Mail option.

My Grading System Definitions:
NM - 10/10 playback quality. Record is open, but sounds like new
EX - 9/10 playback quality. Might have a minor playback disruption or two, but nearly perfect in playback otherwise
VG++ 8/10 playback quality. Will have more minor disruptions than EX but still really good playback
VG+ - 7/10 playback quality. Will have light surface noise between tracks and maybe during fades and softer passages
VG - 6/10 playback quality. Will have evident surface noise between tracks and softer passages/fades, but won't disrupt the listening experience most of the time. Might have ticks as well.
VG- - 5/10 playback quality. Will have obvious surface noise all the time, but not necessarily ticks or pops.
G+ - 4/10 playback quality. Will be crackly with some pops and ticks
G - 3/10 playback quality. Will be crackly with plenty of pops and ticks
F - 2/10 will have skips and likely be very crackly with ticks and pops. Likely warped as well.
W - 1/10 will have skips and/or repeats. Will have lots of "snap crackle and pop" and probably warped as well.
