Note: All records are professionally cleaned prior to grading on an Okki Nokki RCM using L’Art Du Son cleaning fluid. This does not restore a record to brand new, but rather removes the majority of dust and dirt to leave a record (and it’s audio) as clean as possible.

Sleeve
The sleeve appears to be in VG+ condition with some light discolouration to the rear, some laminate creasing to the front and general shelf and usage wear from over the years (see pictures). The owners name is written on the rear.
It does come with the original EMITEX inner sleeve. The records will also be shipped in a brand new polylined inner sleeve.
Vinyl
Visually the record appears to be in VG condition with a some light scratches and a couple of nastier looking wiggly scuffs (non feelable) when checked under a clear white LED bulb. I have listened to the album in full and to me it sounds excellent. There is some light surface noise noticeable mainly between tracks and in quieter passages. I noticed a couple of ticks or pops and unfortunately it did stick/repeat near the start of A2, then played perfectly after skipping this section.
The sound from this album really does show just how well pressed these original albums were.
For a full system break down see further down the listing.
MINT (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT (EX): 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 (VG): 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 (G): 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.
The use of + or - allows for items that fall between the above grades.
