Condition Report
Good Condition
The cassette tape itself is fully functional with no audible issues, warping or damage to the spools. The inlay card and back cover display general handling wear consistent with pre-owned stock—minor creasing, edge wear, and light fading to the printing, but all text and artwork remain legible and intact. The jewel case housing shows typical use: light scratches to the plastic shell and a small crack or flex mark visible in photos, but it remains secure and protective. The woven label on the cassette is clean and all information is readable.
Please examine the photo gallery closely to assess the condition for yourself—every angle and detail is shown clearly.
