Description:

Vinyl:

 It has a very nice black gloss finish, with hardly a mark on it. Side one has very faint withdrawal marks you can only see under a bright light, Side two is virtually the same except there is one noticeable rub mark, it’s not a scratch, overall it looks & sounds fantastic, CLICK HERE and you can listen to the whole album and judge for yourself.

HOW IT WILL BE SENT

I always send out records very secure. The vinyl is taken out of the sleeve and then the cover and vinyl are placed in a plastic sleeve. It is then wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in a strong album mailer (DEFENDA MUSIC MAX) plus an extra cardboard stiffener. It will be secured with parcel and fragile tape.

All my records are graded using the

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide Below

MINT:
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks
or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition.
Records advertised as sealed or un-played 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.

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, discoloration, etc.

FAIR:
The record is still just playable but it 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.

About me & policies;

I am an enthusiast in vinyl and have been collecting since the early 70’s, it is one of my hobbies and not my living. I always try my hardest to get my description correct and always put on as many photos as I can, the good and bad bits so you can see everything in detail. I also try and put on any Biography’s I can as sometimes they can be very useful information. I always play through the entire album before I list it. Nearly all of the records I put onto eBay are at least excellent, but sometimes I will put ones that are a lower grade if they are rare or collectable. I use the Record Collectors Grading Guide to grade my vinyl. I always offer a refund if I have missed something you’re not happy with. I normally post on Monday’s and Wednesday’s so it could be posted next day or at the most 3 days from when I receive payment. As for payment I think that 4 to 5 days after you have won should be long enough, but if you need longer please contact me before you bid. I always post ‘To be signed for’ as this stops any confusion. I will always leave you 5 star feedback and hope that you will do the same, if for any reason you’re not happy then please contact me first.
