USA NEW OLD STOCK ORIGINAL 1980s PRESSING VINYL LP.

The following information is provided to enable approximate identification of exactly what copy this is, but it is only based on our experience plus some detective and guesswork: 

This LP is new old stock from the original 1980s period of the album's release.  It is not a recent re-press/re-issue.  As it is still sealed, we cannot confirm which pressing plant or label design it has, and it is offered for sale on that basis.  The vintage of the item can be verified by the fact that it still has a 1980s Kmart store price sticker attached (although the price has been blacked out).  Whether this is the very first release with no Sting co-composer credit on 'Money for Nothing', we do not know.  What we can be certain of is this is a first or early pressing from the mid-1980s that was simply never opened after purchase.  The album was released on the 13th of May, 1985, and copies from late 1985/early 1986 had factory applied pink hype sticker advertising the hit singles 'Money for Nothing' and 'Walk of Life'.  As this copy does not have this sticker and shows no sign or shadow from one being removed, it is likely a copy from the first batches into stores, anytime from May, 1985 onwards.  

SLEEVE: SEALED WITH ORIGINAL KMART STORE STICKER ON TOP RIGHT FRONT. 

DISC(S): MINT UNPLAYED.

SALE CONDITIONS FOR SEALED RECORDS

Sealed records are sold as stated in unplayed condition. We cannot accept returns of sealed records under any circumstances unless they are still sealed as shipped. Please notify us with your payment if you want us to open this sealed record and check the merchandise before we ship it.

Seam splits (the disc breaking through the spine of the cover in transit) can occur as part of the shipping process. We always pack carefully, but the only sure way to prevent seam splits in transit is to remove the record from the cover before packing it, which we do with all non-sealed records. At the buyer’s request, we will open a sealed record and pack the vinyl in a protective sleeve separate from the cover. Unless the buyer requests that the sealed record be opened and packed in this manner, we are not liable for any seam splits that may occur in transit.
