GRADING/CONDITION

BOX - VERY GOOD WITH ONLY VERY LIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR AND SOME YELLOWING AS IN PHOTOS - NO DAMAGE.

12 PAGE BOOKLET - NEAR MINT

14 X INNER SLEEVES - EXC WITH NO SPLITS OR TEARS

ALL 14 VINYLS LOOK VIRTUALLY UNPLAYED, HIGH GLOSS WITH NICE CLEAN LABELS.

THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS VINYL 1, SIDE 1, FIRST TRACK HAS A VERY SMALL MARK THAT RESULTS IN AROUND 20 OR SO TICKS(NOT CLICKS). ALL THE OTHER VINYLS LOOK NEAR PERFECT WITH ONLY THE ODD VERY HARD TO SEE HAIRLINE UNDER MY STRONG TEST LAMP.

PLAYING QUALITY HAS TO BE AT LEAST AVERAGE EXC PLUS TO NEAR MINT BASED ON A TEST PLAY OF EACH VINYL - OBVIOUSLY, I HAVE NOT PLAYED EVERY VINYL FROM START TO FINISH SO I AM BEING CONSERVATIVE WITH MY GRADING.

A GREAT BOX SET AND QUITE RARE IN THIS CONDITION.

ALL VINYLS ARE PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED AS BELOW.

I VISUALLY INSPECT THE VINYLS UNDER A HALOGEN TEST LAMP THAT WOULD SHOW THE TINIEST OF MARKS THAT WOULD NOT NORMALLY BE VISIBLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT. ANYTHING FOUND WOULD BE REFLECTED IN THE GRADING. I AM USUALLY OVER CRITICAL WITH MY GRADINGS AS I VALUE MY FEEDBACK AND WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE. ALL ARE TEST PLAYED AND ALL STRICTLY GRADED TO THE RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING GUIDE. IF ANY ARE BETWEEN GRADES, I WILL GRADE DOWN RATHER THAN UP. PLEASE SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR GUIDE.

I TAKE GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN ENSURING YOU RECEIVE EXACTLY WHAT IS DESCRIBED.

VINYLS ARE PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED ON A MOTH RCM PRO TO REMOVE ANY FINE PARTICLES FROM THE INNER SLEEVES THAT MAY HAVE ACCUMULATED OVER THE YEARS, LEAVING A BEAUTIFUL CLEAN PLAYING SURFACE READY TO PLACE ON YOUR TURNTABLE. ONLY L'ART DU SON FLUID IS USED FOR CLEANING. VINYLS ARE PLACED IN NEW POLY SLEEVES AFTER CLEANING WHICH FIT INSIDE THE ORIGINAL INNERS.

WOULD BE SECURELY PACKAGED. I DO NOT PROFIT FROM P&P AND ONLY CHARGE WHAT IT COSTS ME OR LESS IN MOST CASES.

PLEASE ALLOW UP TO 2 DAYS FOR DISPATCH THOUGH I WILL POST ASAP.   

 ## UK ONLY ON THIS ONE DUE TO WEIGHT BEING NEAR 3 KG PACKED ##   

PLEASE MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUERIES - ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP.

THANKS FOR LOOKING

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

"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. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

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, discolouration, 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.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
