The vinyl
Mint vinyl, looks like its never been played, absolutely stunning in every way, no marks at all and with a deep shine.... I have had a few of these and this is the best i have ever seen, absolutely pristine and glossy with no marks or scratches at all.... mint !!!
The labels
Unmarked and without any spindle marks at all... glossy and mint !!!
The cover
As near to mint as you can possibly get, sharp spine and a bright cover with no fading of colour at all and with no wear... the pages look great with no marks at all. The spiral inner bag looks amazing and is near mint !!!
These are becoming very difficult to find in mint condition , almost impossible.... dont miss out.
Please note I use UK Record Collector grading system for all albums with the addition of the accepted Near Mint category:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.
NEAR MINT: The record appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner
and is assumed to have been played by them
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,
despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
please note, i always photograph the matrix alignments and run outs as these are always in slightly different positions with every pressing.
