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 marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in very nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean overall with nothing at all obvious showing. When inspected closely there is a few minor and faint lines in places however. There is nothing remotely deep or serious and overall the record is in nice condition with a lovely lustre and just light sign of use.

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm.  The sound produced is excellent with no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was no serious levels of surface noise, but there was a very slight amount in the places. There was a touch in the run ins on each side and a fraction in some of the much quieter passages of some songs. This was all at a low level however and not disruptive or serious. I did also note a quick and minor 'burst' of distortion on side 1 in the last track. This only occurred for a very short period though and overall the record was a nice tidy listen. 

The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has just a small fraction of rubbing to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all legible. There are no splits and no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is hardly any creasing and barely any ring marks evident. It has a hint of wear to the rear top left corner but this is only slight and overall it is clean, strong and in nice condition all round. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original 'Inner Sleeve' which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but light discolouring and mild signs of age. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner so that no damage occurs to the original and the record remains clean and ready to play. 

The record will be packaged in between 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.
