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 good condition. It has quite a lot of spindle marks visible on each label but there are no scuffs, pen marks or really major issues. There is no major wear to the centre holes and these are not loose. Overall the labels are decent with no major issues but with quite a lot of spindle marks as mentioned.

As for the vinyl itself there is clear signs of use and age to both sides. There are lots of light wispy lines, handling marks and general signs of use showing. There is also a few more serious scratches showing, with one long one across half of side 1. This can be felt very lightly in parts but not for all of it. Overall the vinyl is used and has signs of this and is not perfect visually.

I play tested the record and it played tidily overall and although not perfect was still a decent listen. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced has no skips or sticks and despite there being some interference in places was enjoyable throughout. Firstly there is some light surface noise in the run ins to each side and some between tracks. There is also a few occasional splutters during play but nothing extreme and the general audio clarity is closer to a VG+. Despite this however there is also some light tics in track 4 caused by the scratch mentioned above. These do sound sporadically but are not really loud or hugely disruptive. Overall it is a used vintage lp with clear signs of this visually, but one that despite not being a perfect listen is still enjoyable and would grade higher audibly.

The fully laminated sleeve is in very good condition. It has no pen marks, splits, scuffs or major tears but there is a small 6mm tear to the front right edge(middle area). There is also some light wear in the centre of the spine. This is not major however and the spine is all legible. There is also light ring marks to both sides and some laminate creasing showing. This is not extreme or really serious but there is some creasing in places. Overall a solid sleeve with signs of its age but also no really nasty issues. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It includes a poly-lined inner but this is tatty and showing its age. The record will therefore be sent in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure it 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.
