One from my increasingly redundant vinyl collection, now in the process of being drastically reduced (I've hardly used the hi-fi for the last 20-25 years - these days I mostly just listen to stuff via the PC, if at all). This was bought on release, and I don't believe I ever even played the whole thing. About the only song I have any memory of is "It's good to be the King" which, along with the condition of the records, suggests to me that I only ever sampled it and then just stored it away. By the 1990s I tended to buy vinyl out of habit more than desire, so a lot of my later buys were never used.
So, the records themselves are unmarked and fresh. I didn't play all four sides through as part of the inspection process for the listing but I did play the run in on all four sides and it was silent, no background noise, in all cases (on my Xerxes/Rega/OC9 deck). Runout markings are WMME Alsdorf 936 245759-1-A2 2 etc (-1-B2 2, -1-C 3, -1-D 3)
Inner sleeves present and as new. Records were placed into Goldring anti-static sleeves at purchase time and so the original inners are unused.
Outer cover/sleeve also completely fresh and unmarked. In fact if I wrapped the whole thing in cling-film it would easily pass for "new, unopened" (but I'm not that devious)
A splendid copy of a well regarded record by the now unfortunately late Tom Petty.
