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 few faint spindle mark visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or scuffs. All text is legible and overall the labels are clean, bright and in nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are generally nice and clean with nothing at all serious showing and a lovely lustre. There is a few light lines in places however and very light signs of use/age but nothing at all extreme, serious or obvious. Overall a used vintage lp with some light signs of this but also nothing at all sinister, major or that will affect play.

I play tested the record and it played very well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm.  The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was a trace of surface noise in the run ins on both sides but little to none audible during play. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of good quality and nice clarity throughout with no serious issues and only traces of surface noise in the run ins and between some tracks.

The fully laminated sleeve is in excellent condition. It has slight wear or creasing/bruising to the edges and corners but nothing serious and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. There are no splits or serious areas of wear, and no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is a few minor creases to the laminate(mostly short ones emanating from the spine/edges) but nothing extreme. There is a laminate 'bubbles' around the spine area but again nothing major. There is light ring marks showing and also a few minor marks along the rear top and bottom edges(where the laminate 'ends') but these are again not serious and overall it is a tidy sleeve with just light general signs of age. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white poly-lined inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has some slight creasing and general signs of age/handling. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure it remains clean and ready to play.

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.
