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 successful.
This record is in excellent condition. It has some spindle marks visible on the labels but no pen marks, stains or scuffs anywhere. There is only minor wear to the centres and overall the label are clean, bright and in good shape with no major issues to report.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or serious but there are a couple of light marks and faint sleeve scuffs just about visible when angled in normal light. These are all light, cannot be felt and are not serious, but can be seen in places as I say. There is some more incredibly light sleeve 'scuffs' and wispy lines visible under very bright light but not a lot and again nothing sinister. The vinyl also has some strange blotchy marks to both sides. These are purely superficial but are noticeable and do take away a little of the records lustre. Overall a vintage used record which is still in good shape with no serious issues but has the blotchy marks and light signs of use.
I play tested the record and it played very well throughout. It lays flat, there is little to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is free of major issues or any real interference. I heard a minor amount of surface noise in the quiet intro to side 1 and a touch in tracks 2 and 3 on side 2 but nothing at all severe. The majority is clear and defined and there are no skips, sticks or annoying disruptive clicks. Overall it was a very enjoyable play test and played well throughout with audio of good quality and minimal interference.
The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has only a very minor amount of wear and rubbing to parts of the edges and corners(pics) with the majority of the writing along the spine still all clearly legible. It has a strong spine and there are no scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There are no major ring marks showing but there is a little minor light creasing in places. There is also a couple of tiny 2mm tears to the front right edge(pics). There is also a little age related grubbiness in places but this is not extreme and overall the sleeve is in good solid condition. 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 plain white inner which is in excellent condition. This is strong with no splits, tear or pen marks but it does have some slight creasing.
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.
