 AU PAIRS  -  ‘Playing With A Different Sex’    LP    UK    1981    Human HUMAN1

Original UK issue with lyric insert.   NO transfer.  

CONDITION:       U.K. MAGAZINE  'RECORD COLLECTOR'  GRADING SYSTEM USED.  It’s in my best interests to provide an accurate and honest appraisal of condition.  If in doubt, I tend to under-grade to avoid buyer disappointment.   Vinyl is play tested IN FULL at volume on quality audio equipment.  Please note; there may be minor variations in the audible level of background surface noise/light crackle/dust pops from one turntable set-up to another.  Used records are cleaned with L'art Du Son fluid using a Moth vacuum record cleaning machine, unless condition deems unnecessary.   All records/sleeves are visually checked in good natural daylight or using 125W white/daylight bulbs. 

Playing condition ranges from VG- to EX+.  Occasional audible surface noise/light crackle.   Couple of clicks on side2 run-in (before the first track starts).  Occasional background groove-wear on side2.   Overall, NO loud overpowering crackle  NO loud distortion  NO jumps  NO sticking. 

Visually, in good daylight, the vinyl looks VG. 

Labels have spindle marks evident.   Light wear around centre-holes.   All text perfectly readable.  NO writing  NO stickers.

Sleeve is in GOOD+/VG- condition.  Patches of edge and corner wear, including a seam split on the spine (see photos).  NO writing  NO stickers. 

Inner is in VG+ condition.   

PHOTOS ARE OF ACTUAL ITEM FOR SALE.  NO STOCK PHOTOS USED. 

PLEASE NOTE; Due to the reflective nature of vinyl discs, usually only the more noticeable marks will show up in photos.  I TRY TO INCLUDE PHOTOS OF THESE MARKS WHERE POSSIBLE.   

Record Collector Magazine Grading System  - VINYL

MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition. Records advertised 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 scratches. Normal wear and tear on the cover and extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable

GOOD (G) The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeable deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, 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 deface

POOR (P) The record will not play properly due to scratches, 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
