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 very good condition. It has a few spindle marks but these are barely even visible in normal light. There are no pen marks, scuffs or fading and overall the labels are in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything serious or remotely deep but do have light hairlines or surface marks visible in normal light. These clearly show under very bright white light, along with a few more light wispy lines. There is again nothing really serious however just these light surface lines. It has no major scuffs, marks or blemishes and still has a lovely vivid shine.

I play tested the record and it plays really well. It lays flat and there is only a hint of movement in the record arm on side 1. There is a very slight raise on side 2 however but this is minor and of course has no affect on playing. The audio produced from both sides is excellent. Both sides play really well with next to no interference audible, just a trace in the run in and between tracks. The audio is very clear, crisp and full of distinction. None of these light lines/marks cause any audio problems and there are no serious issues such as sticks or jumps and no clicks or pops. I really enjoyed the play test, and seeing as the Pixies are one of my favourite groups the audio would have to do them justice which it really does. It plays really well, sounds great and despite the conservative visual grading would grade much higher audibly.

The sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has wear to the edges and corners(pics), but these are all strong with no really weak areas or splits. There is however a 1cm tear up the bottom edge from the right bottom corner. Other than this it is mainly just rubbing on the edges and wear to the corners but as I say it is still solid all round. Other than this edge/corner wear there are no major issues such as pen marks or scuffs and no sticker removal or glue marks. There is however some slight age related grubbiness/staining in places on the back and also very faint ring marks. So overall a strong sleeve with no really serious defect but some mild superficial issues as mentioned.

It includes both its original inners which are in excellent+ condition. Neither have splits, tears or pen marks and have only very slight wear and incredibly minor creasing.

It also includes its limited edition 16 page booklet which is in excellent+ condition with no rips, pen marks or creasing and only very slight discolouring in places.

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 ensure 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.
