All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.
This record is in excellent+ condition. It has just a couple of light spindle marks visible on the labels and no pen marks, stains or scuffs anywhere. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the label are clean, bright and in great shape with no major issues to report.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are nice and clean with little visible in normal light. There is 3 very light, thin lines just about visible when tilted however. These occur in the last track on side 2 but are soft and minor. Other than these there is maybe the odd incredibly faint wispy line but hardly anything and overall it is in very nice shape. The record has no serious scuffs, nasty marks or blemishes, has a lovely vivid gloss and shows only light signs of use.
I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is minimal upward movement in the record arm. The audio produced is nice and clear with no serious surface noise or interference audible. I heard the most minor trace in the run in, but the the vast majority of the audio is of good clarity and high quality. The thin minor lines mentioned above have little to no affect and there are obviously no skips, sticks, annoying clicks or any other serious issues.
The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has a minor amount of wear to the edges and corners(pics) but the writing along the spine is still all legible. It has a strong spine and there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is only faint ring marks showing and minimal creasing. It does however have some discolouring or grubbiness to the white areas on the rear and some small stains near the rear top right edge area(pics). I think excellent is a fair grading, as the edges show minimal wear and although not perfect due to the slight discolouring/staining it is still in good shape. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It contains its original picture inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks and only very slight minor creasing. It does however have a very faint 'scuff' on one side and a thin stain to the other(white side, left edge area). The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.
The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my Ebay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
