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 quite a lot of spindle marks visible on the label of side 2, but just a few on side 1. There are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading and overall the labels(ridged) are tidy. They are clean, bright and have all text legible but do have the spindle marks as mentioned. 

As for the vinyl itself both sides are free from anything deep, nasty or major but do have signs of age, use and handling. There is some light thin lines in places and some general light markings. There is nothing that can be felt and it still has a lovely lustre but there is signs of use and age. A lot of the lines that can be seen when angled seem to be more like manufacturing marks that actual 'scratches' or lines. They are all very soft however and overall it is a used vintage lp with signs of this but also one that is still in very good playable condition.

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is a solid grade of 'excellent'. There is no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was a light amount of surface noise in the run ins and between some tracks but nothing major or disruptive. Overall it plays well and was a thoroughly enjoyable listen throughout.

The front laminated sleeve is in excellent- condition. It appears generally tidy all round and has no major or stand out issues. It does have some signs of its age however. It has a small amount of wear and creasing to the edges(1.5cm flap in the centre of top edge) and corners. There are no splits however and the text on the spine is all clearly legible. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks on the sleeve but there is some light creasing to the laminated front and light ring marks showing. There is also some age related discolouring and grubbiness to the rear and small amount to the front. Overall a solid sleeve with no stand out issues but one that has some grubbiness and signs of its age. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure it remains clean and ready to play. It does also include its original poly-lined inner however. This is in very good+ condition with no tears, splits or pen marks but with some creasing, grubbiness and general signs of its age.

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.
