All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in very good condition. It has lots of spindle marks visible on the labels but no scuffs, pen marks or severe fading. The centre holes do show some wear but are not overly worn or loose and overall the labels are clean, bright and in decent shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or really serious but do have lots of light lines and 'scuffs' visible in normal light. These are clearly visible but luckily are all light and there is of course nothing that can be felt. The record has no serious scuffs, marks or blemishes and still has a decent shine despite the large amount of sleeve scuffs and clear signs of use. 

I play tested the record and it plays well overall. It lays flat but there is a little movement in the record arm on side 2. This is pretty minor and has no affect on the sound produced which is still very enjoyable. It is free of any sticks or disruptive clicks with the only issues being one very small skip(which is actually really hard to notice) and some mild surface noise in places. This surface noise is not majorly disruptive and can only really be heard between tracks and in the much quieter parts(of which there are few). As for the tiny skip this is in track 2 on side 2 but as I say you have to really be listening hard to pick it up. Overall despite the vinyl clearly being well used it plays well with good quality audio for the vast majority and no major interference or issues, bar the one small and minor skip.

The front laminated sleeve is in very good condition. It has some wear to the edges and corners(pics), but the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. There are no splits or weak areas and all the edges solid enough. There are no scuffs, tears or pen marks anywhere on the sleeve but there are ring marks visible on both sides and some age related grubbiness throughout. There is also creasing to both sides, but the worst of it is on the front. So overall a solid enough sleeve with no major issues but age related wear and creasing as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible to its condition.

It contains a plain white inner in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some age related discolouring and creasing.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my Ebay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
