Packed this weighs over 500gm so overseas postage is as for a double. All postage costs include insurance and top quality packaging. LABEL AND CATALOGUE NUMBER: Vertigo 6360 011 YEAR OF RELEASE: 1970 COUNTRY OF RELEASE: UK CONDITION (VINYL/COVER): VG/VG+. Vinyl is clean with a nice sheen. Tilted to artificial light it has a light superficial hairlines and brushing lines. Visually this is probably better than VG. Played in its entirety this morning on my budget deck, Sits flat on the turntable. Sounds not too far off Excellent. Music is loud and prominent with an occasional tick. It also has a trickle of background sound in the vocal only parts of "War Pigs", "Planet Caravan" and "Hand Of Doom" hence VG grade. "Big Bear" gate fold sleeve is the best I have seen, on a par with my own copy. It is firm and square and has light edge wear (moderate to bottom rear edge) , moderate corner wear and only light creasing. Very clean inside to gate fold. Fully legible spine retains nice shape. Swirl inner is in decent shape. Clean with light yellowing and small splits to 3 edges. Poly is still fully attached. NO tears around centre. Really clean Vertigo swirl labels- check out the photos. No writing, rips, stickers or sticker tears. Decent sounding and great looking complete 1st UK pressing. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER SABBATH/PUNK/METAL/CLASSIC/HARD ROCK LISTINGS IN MY EBAY SHOP. Grading system: I use UK’s “Record Collector” Grading system. I DO PLAY EVERY RECORD I LIST NOW even though its often just quite briefly. Please bear in mind you may get a touch of background sound, even if its just on intros and between the tracks on 30-40 year old vinyl records!! :: MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface mark or deterioration in the sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in the 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 has noticably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc. I will at times use a + or - to indicate when a record falls between the grades. I REMOVE ALL VINYL FROM SLEEVES PRIOR TO POSTING. RECORDS ARE SENT IN BEST QUALITY MAILERS WITH 2 STIFFENERS. I ALWAYS COMBINE POSTAGE BUT COST DEPENDS ENTIRELY ON WEIGHT OF PACKAGE.
