The vinyl is in very good condition with hairlines and light scratches.
I have play tested this record a few times and the listening experience was very enjoyable-there is background noise evident between tracks but there are no skips, jumps or repeats and the audio still sounds great through all songs.
The labels are very good, there is obvious spindle wear and a small sticker on side two.
The sleeve I have graded as excellent minus. There is a faint date inscription to the front and some shelf wear but otherwise is a very well preserved and clean example. The spine is just about perfect.
The inner sleeve is very good with creases.
The record have been cleaned ultrasonically and has been placed in clean pvc lined inner sleeves with the original inner sleeve being included.
Shipping will be by FedEx, signature verification, tracked and insured and a record mailer and stiffeners will be used.
The vinyl will be secured outside the outer sleeve to prevent sleeve damage.
Any questions, please ask. Lots more rare records to come!
Buyers from outside Europe, apart from those living in the U.K , please wait for an invoice before paying so I may supply you with postage quotations. Thanks.
No shipping to Russia or Vietnam.
I use the Record Collector's grading system giving separate condition ratings for the Vinyl and Sleeve:
(near Mint (NM) - A nearly perfect record. Has more than likely been played few times or not at all, and the vinyl will show no imperfections during playback. Sleeve will have no more than the most minor defects. The same is true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
Excellent (EX) -The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Sleeve may have slight wear or creasing
Very Good (VG) - 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. Sleeve, normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable.
Good (GD) - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. Sleeve suffers from folding, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
