GRADING
SLEEVE: EX/EX+
Both sleeves are in very nice clean condition. The front laminated surfaces are nice and clean and free from any wear or laminate wrinkling. The spines are beautifully bold and straight being entirely unflattened. The rear surfaces are nice and clean with no discolouration. The sleeve for ASD 596 has been downgraded to EX because there is a small patch of ink to the bottom of the rear of the sleeve (see photo).
RECORD: EX/EX
The records are lovely and clean with no damage and no feelable marks. Under bright light there are a couple of very fine sleeve removal type marks and a couple of very light wispy scuff marks. Beautiful.
The above record grading is based on Record Collector magazine system:
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.

I calculate postage using the Royal mail postage calculator. I charge an extra 50p for packing materials as i buy specialist record mailers and stiffeners. Sometimes records cost less to mail than i expect. In these cases i try to refund the difference. However, as I mail a number of records at one time i occasionally lose track of who paid what postage for which record. RATHER THAN LEAVING LESS THAN 5 STAR FEEDBACK, IF YOU HAVE BEEN OVERCHARGED FOR POSTAGE PLEASE CONTACT ME AND I WILL IMMEDIATELY REFUND YOU THE DIFFERENCE.
NO QUIBBLE FULL MONEY BACK GAUARANTEE IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE!
