I will only ship with tracking to Canada and the U.S.A., and worldwide (this is to protect both myself AND you). Quoted shipping price includes tracking to your location. Feel free to ask any questions you may have prior to purchasing. If for whatever reason my quoted shipping price happens to be much higher than the actual shipping price (whether to Canada, U.S.A., or international) I will contact you about refunding the difference. Message me with any inquiries.

I try to be as transparent as possible with all aspects of my listings, so please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns prior to purchase.

Remember you are buying in Canadian dollars (CAD $)!

All LP’s have been cleaned using a Spin Clean Disc Washer. Records will be shipped in protective outer sleeves (with the record outside of the LP cover to prevent seam splitting during shipping) housed in a secure cardboard LP mailer.

Thanks for looking!

Condition

LP is from my personal collection and has been fully tested using detailed Epos speakers and a Goldring 2100 cartridge. Visually VG++, with only 3-4 minor hairlines per side. The outro to 'Trapped Under Ice' ticks very lightly about 10-12 times, and the intro to 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' ticks even more faintly about 3 times. Other than that, the record plays absolutely perfect with no audible noise. I must iterate that the visible marks are very minimal and overall the record is glossy, sits flat, and shows very little signs of play.

Cover is almost N.M. aside from very minor wear on the bottom two corners (see photos). Otherwise, there is no ring wear whatsoever and the cover appears almost as new. The original lyric inner sleeve is perfect and untouched. Stored in a temperature regulated and smoke free environment.

If you have any other condition questions please let me know. Additional photos available on request.

Thanks for looking!
