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 excellent+ condition. It has just a couple of faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or scuffs. The centres show little to no wear and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape with.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are nice and clean with a lovely lustre and nothing at all sinister or major showing. There is a few faint wispy lines and minor sleeve traces in places but no 'real scratches' or major marks. Overall it has light signs of use and age but nothing at all extreme or serious.

I play tested the record and it played great throughout with excellent clarity and little to no surface noise or interference. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is no serious movement in the record arm with just the most minor fraction. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was hardly any surface noise at all with even between tracks clear and quiet. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of nice quality and nice clarity throughout.

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere but there is some light age related grubbiness or discolouring around the edges. There is also a small area of wear or rubbing on the top of the spine(see pics). There is no major levels of creasing and no serious ring marks but there is traces of both. Overall a nice tidy sleeve but one that has light and general age related issues. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original lyrics inner which is in excellent+ condition with no splits, tears or pen marks and only the most slight sign of handling. 

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.
