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 purchased.

This record is in near mint condition. It has just a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels and neither side has pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and in excellent condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean with little showing in normal light. There is the odd most minor thin and faint line and a few wispy lines visible under bright light but hardly anything and of course nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in really nice condition, has a lovely lustre and shows only very minor sign of use.

I play tested the record and it played really well. It lays flat, there is no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or disruptive clicks. I noted little to no interference on side 1 with a clear run in, intro and great audio throughout. Side 2 was much the same but for the most minor trace of surface noise in some parts of track 3 and also 2 or 3 light crunches around 3/4 the way through track 3. These were very minor and brief and overall both sides play great with very nice audio quality.

The sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has some minor wear and rubbing to all the edges and corners but there is also an area of heavier wear in the centre of the spine(see pics). This is the reason for the slightly lower grading as it has affected the text on the spine. It is not a huge area and is not a split and overall the sleeve is still clean, strong and in good tidy condition. There are no splits, tears, pen marks or heavy creasing and only light ring marks. Overall a clean and tidy sleeve but one that has some wear to the edges and corners, with the heavier area on the spine as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original picture inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits but there is wear to the bottom edge which is weakening. Other than this area there is little to report with no tears or pen marks and no serious creasing or ring marks. I will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure the wear on the bottom edge gets no worse.

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 try to ensure a 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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
