Hi my name is Brian and I have been buying and selling vinyl on eBay for many years now. I will always endeavour to give honest and detailed descriptions of all items I am selling without going into pages of unnessesary information and hype suggesting how 'AMAZING' and 'IMPOSSIBLE LIKE THIS' etc etc.
I will always take clear pictures and close-ups of any damage or wear worth a mention.
If for any reason you are unhappy with a purchase from me I will give a full refund including the return postage fee. As long as the item is returned as it was sent and the problem was not obvious in the listings description or pictures.
I will only post the items fully insured and recorded/signed for if the final selling value is over £25. Please wait for an invoice as the post and packaging cost can not be calculated until the final selling price is known. It may be more OR less than the prices stated.
All vinyl is very well packaged with 'cruciform' boxes stiffeners and bubble wrap. Box corners will be strengthened where required.
All albums are play graded on my LINN SONDEK LP12, EKOS 2 tonearm, AKIVA.B cartridge, AKTIV MAGIK pre and power amps into LINN AKURATE 212 speakers.

SLEEVE..................NON GATEFOLD, UN TEXTURED AND UN LAMINATED.  In very nice condition, there is NO wear to the top and bottom edges. The spine is undamaged and has NO edge wear all information is bright and clear. This very delicate black surface suffers from some very, very light surface rub but NOT through the surface. The back of the sleeve looks almost as new with NO damage EX+.

INNER SLEEVE.....The printed inner sleeve has seen better days and is split on all three sides, it has a little foxing but it has not been taped or glued and has no unwanted writing or doodles.  This album has been stored in a Nagoka style anti static sleev all the years I have had it in my collection.VG+

INSERTS/ POSTERS ETC...N/A

LABELS..................Both labels have no unwanted writing or stickers or tears. Very few light spider marks on either side. Side B label has a ripple in a small area which has been there since new. EX.

VINYL.....................Deep black, heavy weight and shiney with some very fine hair lines that do not affect playback and one or two other lines that cannot be felt and DO NOT cause any annoying minor clicks and pops. The playback is excellent with a full and complete sound. It plays well all the way through with 'tell tale' very light clicks and crackles now and then, obviousley more noticable in the quietest parts but No jumps. I am sure a professional clean will sort out some of that. The clarity and freshness of the sound on playback on this record are very impressive. EX for both sides. NOT overgraded.

COMMENTS.........Charisma are not known for the quality of there pressings and all have some faults (unless you have been very very lucky) This copy has a very good sound without distortion. A brilliant album in very playable and enjoyable condition, Not mint but not bad at all for 42 YEARS OF AGE. Quite rare now. And it is COMPLETE!

If you have ANY questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

GOOD LUCK BIDDING, Brian.
