CONDITION OF VINYL (visual grading):

SIDE ONE: EXCELLENT

SIDE TWO: EXCELLENT(-)

This rare LP is in excellent condition and appears virtually unmarked and unworn (many unscrupulous sellers would grade the vinyl higher, however this is a true EX grading).  Upon close inspection there are a couple of extremely light surface marks which are hardly noticeable and do not affect playback.  The record plays extremely well throughout.  Both labels are in great condition, there are a couple of spindle traces on both labels (see pictures).   There are some light clicks during the first track of side two (hence grading), however they do not affect the listening experience.  It is very difficult to find 'swirl' label LPs in such great condition!

CONDITION OF SLEEVE: EXCELLENT(-)/VERY GOOD+

The unlaminated gatefold sleeve is in great shape, although there is a thin line of what could possibly be ink across the credits on the inner gatefold (see scan) and a small scuff on the top of the left band members' head.  There is also a light amount of residue on the very top-right front cover (see picture) and an extremely small ink spattering next to the title on the rear sleeve (see picture).  Apart from these minor factors the sleeve is a fine example.

COMMENTS:

This LP is essential for any Cressida fan or Vertigo collector.  This super-rare item should please most collectors.  Good luck bidding!

I refuse to send International items via surface mail since it is a slower service with greater risk of loss and of damage. I would recommend that overseas buyers opt for insured services as I will not be held responsible for any loss or damage during transportation if postal insurance has not been selected. Please note that I will provide proof of postage upon request.

PACKAGING INFORMATION:

This record will be sent to you in a high quality cardboard record mailing envelope and it will be protected by two strong cardboard stiffeners in order to prevent unwanted bending during transportation. The record will be placed in a PVC outer sleeve and “sandwiched” between the cardboard stiffeners. The envelope will be sealed with strong brown tape.

Please bid with confidence. I will always aim for the record to reach you in the same condition in which it leaves me, especially since having had disappointing experiences receiving badly packaged records.

Paypal is the preferred method of payment because the transaction is safer and quicker. I will accept cheques from the UK only, I do not accept cheques from overseas. Cheques must be in Pounds Sterling. I will only send the item when the cheque has cleared.
