Condition: VG+/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is excellent in condition, except for a few tiny brown spots inside box. The right side of front-lid is lightly warped downward, as usual with this type of box cover. The right bottom-corner of back side is lightly dented with a brown spot. Otherwise it has no tear, edge-wear, ring-wear, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is TOP in condition, keeping glossy. It has none of any scuff, scratch, hairline & spindle-mark on each label, which can be rated as "MINT". But it’s lightly warped on its surfaces. Then it totally rates as “EX+”. Anyway, no flaw on the groove & label …very clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI: VG, being with tape-stain on the right-rim of back side. A few minor brown spots are on the front.

BOOKLET: VG+, being with some minor spots on upper right-rim of front page. It’s clean on the back & inside pages.
