Conservatively graded VG to allow for some very minor crackles, majority of playback is closer to VG+! Vinyl has visible surface marks but playback remains strong. Labels and sleeve are excellent. All records are shipped with protective polythene covers and secured in sturdy packaging. Carefully stored in a humidified environment and tested on high-quality equipment for optimal sound clarity.
