I understand terms like "mint" or "near-mint" and "good", etc. on used vinyl, but probably should have inquired as to what Stinkweeds means by "clean". In retrospect I should have asked what "clean" means on a $20 used album or asked if I could open the sealed album so I could check it out before buying. Well, it plays but it is very worn and has enough pops and crackles to justify looking for a better copy. A lot of people love this shop, but don't neglect.. always inspect!
