Description
I will be away on Holiday during this auction and so will not be able to answer any questions until the last day.
Original UK first pressing.
This has the following matrix numbers: XEX 709-1, XEX 710-1, XEX 711-1 and XEX 712-1.
The number on the front is 0071892.
The vinyl looks to be in Very Good condition on side one, Very Good condition on side two, Very Good+ condition on side three and Very Good+ condition on side four.
The labels are graded as Excellent.
The cover is graded as Very Good+. It would be graded much higher except for the fact that it is very discoloured so that it is not white anymore, and there is a slight damp mark near the spine. But it is nice and shiny, with no major defects.
The poster is graded as Very Good condition. Some fold-splits and signs of age but no major defects.
The photos are graded as Very Good condition.
The inner sleeves are graded as Very Good condition. There are no seam splits, but there are tears near the centre hole and scruffy along opening.
All vinyl is visually graded only. My LP gradings are based on the UK Record Collector grading system. Please make sure you are familiar with the grading system before you place a bid .
Please make sure that you understand the grading system:
MINT: The record looks brand new and has no signs of ever having been played. The cover and packaging look brand new.
NEAR MINT: The record shows minimal signs of having been played, with no marks on the playing surface and perhaps some light spindle trails on the labels. The cover and packaging look almost like new.
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.
Where an item falls between two grades then plus or minus (+ or -) may be added.

Returns policy I try to describe/grade my items accurately as I do not want them returned. Please don't bid if you are the type of person who will complain over some small issue I have overlooked. However, if I have made a genuine mistake and the item is SIGNIFICANTLY not as described it can be returned for a refund of the cost price. As my vinyl is visually graded only, I cannot accept returns based on any discrepancy between the vinyl's visual grading and the way it sounds.
Please feel free to ask any questions.
