Description: Vinyl was play tested through Focal Elegia's and it played as NM. I numerically score the vinyl a 97, it would have been a 98 however on B3 there was what sounded like a missed dust fleck. This vinyl played as perfect as could be and there were no bad mixes (sometimes remix albums can fall flat, this was not the case here). A visual inspection revealed a couple of super faint marks, maybe NM- however it's in better shape than EX. Also, on angles there are some spindle marks on the label; it's strange because the vinyl itself look as good as having never been played so I'm not sure even what happened but it looks like whatever it was it happened a couple times. Bottom line is that the vinyl is all there. RIP Queen Tina. The sleeve is scored as EX. The issue driving the grading is what looks like discolorations spots that are visible on angles. There is no 'Japanese Mold' smell (you'll know what it is if you deal with Japanese albums frequently and if not you won't forget the first time you smell it), I've checked it a few times. It's not everywhere and I think it was some kind of printing error but I'm not really sure. I was able to capture this in the pictures, straight on you don't see anything and the sleeve looks perfect. There is super light corner wear and a 4mm dimple on the bottom seam however I saw no other issues. Honestly, I'm calling it Excellent but it's probably Near Mint. You wont be disappointed at all. Album will be mailed in a cardboard mailer between cardboard with bubble wrap. If you have any questions please let me know and thanks for looking!
