THE STRANGLERS "The Gospel According To the Meninblack 1981 EMI LP-SQ-17189 EX

Description: THE STRANGLERS "The Gospel According To the Meninblack" 1981 EMI LP-SQ-17189 Vinyl condition - EXRecord sleeve condition - VG+Track Listing - see photosI list all vinyl as “VG” to “VG+ or better. ‘MINT’ implies the record is SEALED. I grade relatively conservative to minimize any issues. I will disclose any noticeable issues or defects. All records are visually graded. I will play test if there are possible issues. I try to consider what my reaction would be as a buyer, upon winning this auction and pulling the record out its sleeve the first time. Please note that grades are visual. It seems to me that play-grading is even more subjective and entails other variables, such as the sensitivity of one's equipment, (A superficial surface mark is not a scratch that would affect playback.) As anyone who has handled a lot of used records knows, some play better than they look and VICE VERSA. I use a combination of the industry standard Goldmine Grading Scale as well as a 1-10 scale to ensure a clear and accurate account of each album’s condition. Cover/Sleeve Grading applies to OUTER SLEEVE ONLY. If the original Inner sleeve is included it will be shown in the photos. Please ask any additional questions regarding inner sleeve or album condition BEFORE purchase! The Scale is as follows: 10: MINT (M), Pristine, Looks as if it just came off the manufacturing line, also listed as New, Mint Sealed/Unopened 9: NEAR MINT (NM), Looks as if it just came from a store and was opened for the first time, maybe played a few times if ever, no evidence of play or wear whatsoever 8: EXCELLENT (EX), also listed as VERY GOOD PLUS PLUS (VG++), LP may have a faint surface mark or two barring it from being truly Near Mint, but sound quality should not be affected at all, cover sleeve is just short of Near Mint, often used for cover sleeves in Shrink, or with no ringwear or staining or easily visible flaws whatsoever, seams and spine fully intact 7: VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+), Shows slight signs of wear, light scuffs or scratches may be present but they do not affect playback other than faint surface noise heard sporadically in between tracks, or the occasional soft click from a surface mark here or there, cover sleeve is considered still “frameable” yet when observed closely will show to have a flaw or small flaws, very minor ringwear if any, seams and spine intact but not pristine 6: VERY GOOD/VERY GOOD PLUS (VG/VG+), more obvious signs of wear and handling, LP has surface noise that is noticeable in some spots but perhaps is quiet and clean in other spots, clicks and pops will be heard, but will not significantly disrupt the music, cover sleeves have more obvious ringwear or marks/staining, seams may have cracking, minor seam splitting or some missing spine text but are still fairly well intact. Writing may be present on label. 5: VERY GOOD (VG), significant and obvious wear and handling including surface noise throughout, audible scratches which cause clicks and pops and crackle but no skips or repeated grooves, cover sleeve may have significant ringwear and/or staining, seam splits may be evident, label or sleeve may have writing, names, stickers etc. 4: VERY GOOD MINUS (VG-), to be seen on a cover sleeve for a significantly rare album that is in extremely bad shape, lots of splitting etc, yet is still worth owning due to its rarity.
