Media Condition: Near Mint (NM or M-)
Sleeve Condition: Very Good (VG)
Right so this vinyl looks almost unplayed. There are a couple of very light hairlines but it's so close to perfect im calling it NM. There is a small tear mark on side 2 label but again invisible when on turntable. Sleeve has minor edgewear and corner wear and a few creases. But overall great.
