ALL VINYL IS VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS REFERRED TO OTHERWISE. IF THERE IS A FAULT ON THE VINYL I WILL TRY TO PHOTO THIS, BUT GETTING LIGHT / SHINE / REFLECTION ANGLES CORRECT FOR A GOOD PHOTO IS OFTEN DIFFICULT. WHILST I AM LISTING SO MANY AT THE MOMENT PLAY-GRADING WHOLE ALBUMS IS NOT POSSIBLE, BUT WHERE THERE IS AN OBVIOUS FAULT (REPORTED IN DESCRIPTION) I WILL PLAY THROUGH THIS AND REPORT IN THE DESCRIPTION.

SLEEVES - OUTER AND INNER - ARE DESCRIBED, AND WHERE POSSIBLE FAULTS ARE SHOWN (OR EXAMPLED IF SEVERAL) BY PHOTO.
ALL PHOTOS IN MY LISTING ARE OF THE ACTUAL COPY I HAVE FOR SALE. ABSOLUTELY NO STOCK PHOTOS USED (so apologies also if my photos are less than 'professionally' crisp)


I AM USING THE UK RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING, AS FOLLOWS:- 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)
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
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. Poor (P)
The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing

Bad (B)The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

I MAIL USING BOUGHT-IN RECORD MAILERS, WITH ADDITIONAL STIFFENING IF USEFUL.
