CONDITION (vinyl/cover)

NEAR MINT (superb clean copy with bright clear surfaces and mint labels; it's very hard to see any sign of play and there's no obvious spindle-marks on the labels - it looks like it's possibly only been played once; I don't use mint grade for records unless the item is sealed)

 / MINT (the textured embossed sleeve is basically in perfect condition with bright clean uncreased surfaces and sharp unworn edges; it comes with the rarely-seen original hype sticker on the front; I can't see any obvious faults - you will not find a better example of this easily damaged sleeve! - see photos)

Inner sleeve is NEAR MINT (solid and clean, unsplit and uncreased; it just has very slight disc impression and a couple of small light smudges on the lyrics side, probably made in the printing process) 

complete with Mute Documentary Evidence 4-page insert MINT

I have been selling vinyl online for about 20 years so am very experienced in posting rare and valuable records all over the world. I will take all care and precautions to ensure this item gets to you in the same condition as it leaves me. The LP will be separated from the main sleeve and put in a brand new polylined inner sleeve. All contents will be placed in a clear plastic sleeve and sent in a Defendapak box mailer with multiple stiffeners.

I USE THE UK RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM. CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS.

I'M VERY CAREFUL WITH MY GRADING BUT I DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO PLAY-GRADE EVERY SINGLE ITEM, SO MOST GRADES YOU WILL SEE ARE VISUAL ONLY. IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH AN ITEM FOR WHATEVER REASON PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE LEAVING FEEDBACK SO WE CAN SORT ANY PROBLEMS OUT, REFUNDS ARE ALWAYS AVAILABLE UPON RETURN OF THE ITEM IN THE CONDITION IT WAS RECEIVED.
