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 a few light spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs, fading or staining anywhere. The centres show no wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in very good shape but with some light spindle rubs showing as mentioned. 

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and show only light signs of use in normal light. There are a couple of light surface lines and very minor light  signs of use showing when angled into bright light, but there is certainly nothing remotely nasty or serious showing. So overall a used vintage record which has no nasty scuffs or serious marks and has a gorgeous lustre but has a couple of the most minor and faintest signs of use/age.

I play tested the record and it played very well. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no arm movement noticeable. The audio is excellent throughout with no skips, sticks or tics and minimal surface noise. I noted next to nothing during the play test other and a few of the most minor splutters in the intros. Overall the audio is of good clarity and was a pleasure to play test.

The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It is tidy all round with no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks. It has a minor amount of rubbing to the edges but nothing major. There is also a slight amount of discolouring or mild grubbiness showing to the rear. Overall a tidy sleeve with no major issues, just light signs of age. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original plain white inner which is in excellent+ condition with no splits, tears or pen marks just light signs of age.

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.
