Description
Hello and welcome to one of my listings. Primarily I am a collector however from time to time I like to offer items from my collection. I grade very strictly, using the UK Record Grading system- both play grading and visual grading are used, Visual grading is based on inspection under both normal and extreme bright light, as you will see from my feedback I do normally get this right! If for any reason you are not happy however I do offer a 100% money back promise providing the record is returned in the condition it was sent in. Thanks for looking!t

Condition;
Disc: Very Good/ Excellent : Side Two is very clean and unworn with just a few hairlines side one although clean does have some bag sweat caused by long term storage, which does result in some light background in quiet areas and imbetween tracks. The music itself however is crisp and unworn.

I aim to provide the most honest and accurate grading to ALL of my records. All records are graded to the highest and most strict standards in accordance with the guide set by the UK Record Collectors Guide. Close examination under a bright desk top lamp is used in the grading of vinyl playing surface as well as normal daylight.
