- Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap Original 1976 Australian 1st issue 12" LP Vinyl Record. Albert Productions Blue Roo labels
The cover is VG+ - (light creasing)

The labels are Very Good (there is writing on the label, it is hard to see, as it is blue ink, on blue labels, and it is not glaring or obvious)
The original micro thin poly inner sleeve is Excellent
The vinyl is Very Good - The vinyl has good shine, and looks great in your hand, but on close inspection, the surfaces are blemished with light scratches, and faint marks, though none are deep or feelable, and the vinyl record plays very well, with excellent audio quality, and clarity, but with some audible imperfections. (some occasional tics and pops, heard mostly in the quiet areas, and the gaps between songs) The audible imperfections are few, they are not loud, crowded, repetitive or persistent.
In spite of the marks, it is a decent playing, and sounding vinyl record on both sides.

This is an above average used record, that has been well looked after.




GOOD
56 to 68
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has deteriorated, but the record will still play through, and it will not be a completely unpleasant listening experience, even at the bottom of this grade (56).
The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. 




FAIR
41 to 55
The record is still playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even stick, skip or jump..

The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

A few words about postage.

Within Australia, the best value for multiple purchases is a 5KG satchel, where as many as 15 to 20 LPs can be posted for $22.00 registered post. (well packed in a box, inside the satchel)

My Policies on postage are simple.

I post at cost.
The user pays.
I package well.

Any item that you purchase without choosing the option of "Signed for" or "Registered" Post, is at your risk.
I do accept that "signed for" can be expensive, especially internationally, but whether you take the option of this, or any other  insurance, is entirely up to you.
I do not wish to withdraw the option of standard postage for the cheaper records, but it must be at your risk.
