Condition: Disks range in quality from a 4 to a 6/10. There are no cracks or chips and no major scratches or gouges. A few marks from fingerprints (?) and a surface dirt that I can not identify. See enlarged photos, especially "Frankie and Albert." I would guess that someone at some point tried to clean the disks and left that residue. I have not made any attempt to clean it off, not wanting to make things worse. That is up to you.
Overall completely playable. Cover is 7/10.
I'm trying to be as objective as possible here, so ask detailed questions if you want more information, but please ask BEFORE you bid.
Local pickup in Brooklyn NY is great! You can even look through my "stacks" if you come by. Otherwise give me a few days to pack these records. They are old and need to be carefully packed. I have had records break in transit and I don't want that to happen again.
If they break in transit contact me immediately. I will wrap each individual record, separating them from each other, and then wrap the lot in corrugated cardboard - usually about 5 layers.
I ship media mail. I will combine shipping.
Thanks for looking.
