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 successful.

This record is in excellent- condition. It has quite a few spindle marks visible on both the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres show some wear but are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have nothing nasty evident but there is some light surface lines, sleeve scuffing and the odd light mark showing in normal light. These light lines and signs of use do show under bright light along with more wispy lines but again nothing deep, sinister or really serious. So overall this used record is in good shape on the whole, still has a lovely lustre, is free of serious issues or major defects but has light surface lines and sleeve scuffing to both sides.

I play tested the record and it played very well and was a very enjoyable listen with no major issues or serious levels of interference. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is minimal movement in the record arm. There are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks and only very occasional amounts of light surface noise. I noted a trace in the run in and intro to side 2 but this was all on both sides and overall I would grade the audio far closer to EX+ than the visual grading of EX-.

The sleeve is in near mint condition and is still in its original shrink wrap. It has some minor wear and rubbing to the right side corners which are exposed but this is minor and overall the edges are all preserved well with the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are no splits anywhere and all the edges are still rock solid. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere on the sleeve and next to no creasing or ring marks. Overall the sleeve has been preserved very well by the shrink and now shows only minor 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 as to its condition.

It includes its original plain white inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits or pen marks and very little creasing or ring marks. There is however one 1" circular stain to one side and a small 5mm tear to the top edge.

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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
