Hey everyone,
So this is my first post here, and I promise it to be a pretty good one.
I was recently able to obtain a sealed copy of Trouble at the Henhouse on vinyl. I paid a lot for it, but significantly less than what I would have off of the bay.
But my issue is that I'm scared to open it! I know how extremely rare it is opened, never mind sealed. So my question is if I should just open and spin it, offer it up to trade for, say, an opened TATH plus some credit towards an opened Live Between Us or Day For Night, or to just hold onto it and leave as-is. :thumb:
The caveat is that the cover is not in mint condition. There is a three-inch bend/fold in the lower right corner of the cover, some very minor corner damage to the upper right corner where the plastic seal has come off slightly, a very minor spine bend about three inches from the bottom, and what appears to be very minor ring wear (hard to tell if it's the plastic or the cover itself). The cover is otherwise in excellent shape. And of course, I assume the vinyl to be mint.
I will post photos on request.
Are there any collectors interested in trading for this? Even if you are not, what is your opinion?
Cheers!
