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 no damage to the inkjet centres or 'labels' with all text legible and no pen marks or scuffing. There is light manufacturing grubbiness around the centres but nothing extreme or intrusive.

As for the vinyl itself both sides are really clean and have little showing in normal light. There is maybe some incredibly light wispy lines visible when viewed under bright light but nothing at all sinister. There is also a few faint sleeve smudges but these are again very minor and the vinyl is in great shape overall.

I play tested the record and it played really well. It lays perfectly flat on the deck and upon playing there is no movement in the record arm. The audio produced is excellent and very clear with only a miniscule trace of surface noise in the run in/out. There are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks and overall it plays well and produces very enjoyable audio.

The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has only very minor wear and rubbing to the edges and corners, and is strong all round with no splits anywhere. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and minimal amounts of light creasing. There is very faint ring marks showing on both sides but these are minor and overall the sleeve is in really good shape.

The record will be sent in a brand new plain white sleeve(to protect the original), and with a brand new plastic outer sleeve. It will also be sent 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.

Many thanks for looking.
