Overall description- A good example of this 50 year old classic Beatles album. Vinyl is a heavy 175gms. Side 1 plays well with no issues and is excellent. Side 2 is very good plus. Has a mark on track 1- Love me do - which creates some clicks.

The black/ yellow labels are lightly textured and there is a light mark on side 1 where a label has been.There are Dick James credits on side 1.

The Ernest J Day cover has a bit of wear round its edges but the main part of the cover is very good plus.

I have devised a good packing system, using recycled cardboard/ plastic and have sent records to all parts of the United Kingdom and to France, Holland, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria, Greece, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Australia, Ukraine, Poland, Israel, America and Japan with not one problem (strong packaging).

Got a testimonial from a record shop that has bought several albums.

“Hello Ronnie, I buy a lot of vinyl on E Bay. 7 of of 10 - let's say let me down with over graded or bad packing or both. What you sent today and the way it was packed was simply a great effort and I would like to say a big THANK YOU. John”

Record Collector Magazine Grading system

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 marked 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)

Te 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

Fair (F)

The record is still just playable but 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.
