Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for slightly worn bottom-edge. Some minor brown spots are on the left top & bottom corners of back side, and right top & bottom corners of front. A short crease is on upper right-edge. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc looks nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are a few spindle-marks on each label. But it’s slightly warped on its surfaces which doesn’t affect its play or sound. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". Anyway, no flaw on the groove…very clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI: EX

INSERT: VG+, being with some minor brown spots on the left top & right bottom corners of front page.
