Sleeve in EX condition - light shelf wear to edges and corners and some surface indentations only visible in angled light. Inner sleeve in EX condition with no visible ring impression. Disc is in VG condition with light surface markings on both sides (most probably from careless sleeve removal / storage) as well as spindle marks on labels. There is a light crackle audible throughout - especially at the start and between tracks. Particularly noticeable at the start of side 2. It does not bother me particularly but something to be aware of before purchasing - crackling really bothers some people! I have lowered the price by approximately £10 from what I would normally charge due to this.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All vinyl records are shipped with cardboard backing, new inner sleeves (along with originals) and a clear plastic outer sleeve around everything. Depending on needs I may also cover with bubble wrap and use a second cardboard backing on the other side. Records are removed and shipped outside original outer or inner picture sleeves to avoid seam splits in transit.
All vinyl records are graded conservatively and I try to give good descriptions of any imperfections and defects. I try to be thorough because I would rather that you are pleasantly surprised - not unpleasantly! Always check pictures for the sleeve condition. It's harder to know the condition of the record from the pictures but it's still always worth checking.
In the unlikely event that the disc is disappointing, you are unhappy and feel that the item is not as good as you expected from my description - or if it was damaged in transit - please contact me about a return. I would rather lose a little money than a little reputation - I want happy customers, even if it's only because they got a quick return/refund.
For international shipping I use Royal Mail Tracked - it's more expensive but unfortunately it's necessary both for you and for me, as I do not accept international returns. If your item is badly damaged by international shipping, contact me and we will work out compensation.
