PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER). OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.
RARE original George Marino mastered Specialty first pressing from 1984 on Elektra with STERLING dead wax stamps and printed inner sleeve with complete lyrics!!! LP is a beautiful VG++ with a few light paper scuffs. Cover is still in the original shrink wrap and stunning. Even has the original custom barcoded Kmart price sticker in the top right hand corner on the front cover and orange circular $5.99 sale price sticker underneath. An absolute high grade first pressing with impeccable provenance. THIS is what collecting is about so don't sleep metal collectors. You will not be disappointed.
I USE GOLDMINE GRADING~ MINT (SEALED) NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++: VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE VG+: AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG: STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR: FILLER COPY ONLY. LOTS OF SCRATCHES
