rim text are in NEAR MINT/EXCELLENT condition,side 1 has just a couple of tiny spindle hole marks which are hardly visible,side 2 has just a few more but still very nice with no damage or wearRecordVisually the record looks AMAZING ..when you first look at it in normal light IT LOOKS MINT with full gloss and shine...it is only when you look under a very strong light and tilt it at different angles can you see a few very faint hairline marks..these are probably removal marks..there is definetly no deep fingernail scratches,because of this i would grade the record as visually EXCELLENT to NEAR MINT.I have got records in the past that where graded near mint that are worse than this First may i say that i feel the record could do with a clean on a proper cleaning machine,it has full gloss and shine with no groove wear.starting with side 1 and it goes into the first track Breathe ..it starts with some noticeable crackle and clicks which goes light as the songs carry on..so basically side 1 starts with heavy crackle at the start and goes lesser as the side goes along.Side 2 starts with the brillian money ,this again starts with heavy background noise which goes lighter as the side goes on.To be honest i was dissapointed in the audio AS THE DISC LOOKS NEAR MINT..thats is why i am wondering if a proper clean would help this a lotIT REALLY IS A STUNNER POSTAGEUk: 4 for 1st class recorded, 8 for special deliveryEurope: 12 for international signed for deliveryRest of the world: 17 for international signed for deliveryI DO COMBINE POSTING FOR MORE THAN ONE ITEM...PLEASE ASKCheck out my other items Be sure to add me to your favourites list On 13-Jul-13 at 17:52:36 BST, seller added the following information: PLEASE NOTE THERE IS A SLIGHT ERROR IN THE LISTING,IN REGARD TO THE COVER EDGES/SPINE,IT DOES NOT HAVE PINCHED EDGES OR TEXT...MY MISTAKE..BUT IT IS NICE
