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 obvious spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs or stains. There is a no wear around the centres and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean, have a vivid lustre and have little to nothing showing in normal light. There is the odd most minor wispy line visible under bright light but there is of course nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in really nice shape and shows little sign of use.

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use, and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was only the odd hint of very slight surface noise(due to very mellow nature of some of the audio) or minor noise, and most certainly nothing at all major. Overall a very tidy listen with minimal interference, no major issues and nice audio clarity.

The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has just a fraction of rubbing to the edges and corners. The writing along the spine is all legible but there is a light crease in the centre of the spine which slightly affects the album title(see pics). There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks and no serious creases. There is barely any grubbiness and just a hint of a light ring mark to the rear. Overall the sleeve is in very nice condition with nothing at all serious, and just minimal signs of its age. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible

It includes its original plain white inner which is in excellent+ condition with no splits or major issues but some mild discolouring. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.

Also included is its original insert. This is in excellent condition with no major issues but with a few light age spots showing in places.

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.
