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.

The sleeve appears to be in VG condition with some discolouration and general shelf and usage wear from over the years.
Vinyl
Visually the record appears to be in VG- condition with some scuffs, scratches and light sleeve marks under a bright light. Unfortunately it has also suffered from being stored in a PVC sleeve so is ‘foggy’.
I have played this record in full and noticed surface noise throughout (mainly during quieter passages). A1 (A Hard Days Night) also skipped four times.
Unfortunately as this is not my full time job, I am only able to visually grade records.
Audio quality may vary based on your Hi-Fi system.
For the records I have noted as being listened to, they are played on the following setup:
Rega Planar 3 w/ Rega RB330 & Elys 2
Cambridge Audio CP1
Cambridge Audio CXA60
Monitor Audio Bronze 6
