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 only a few faint spindle marks visible on each label and there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and appear in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and have nothing serious or major showing. There is a couple of minor faint lines and minor signs of use/age showing but nothing sinister. So overall the record is in good shape with a few light lines and some slight signs of use but nothing nasty or serious.

I play tested the record and it played tidily 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 no serious surface noise and overall the audio quality was excellent. I did notice a small amount of surface noise and minor splutters in the run ins but there was nothing disruptive or major. Overall it was enjoyable throughout with no major interference. 

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has some rubbing to the top and bottom edges but these are solid and have no splits. The writing along the pinched spine is all clearly legible and the spine shows minimal wear. There are no splits, tears or pen marks anywhere but there is a minor ring mark and light age related grubbiness/discolouring to the rear. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

Its includes its original yellow inner which is excellent with no splits or major issues but has some light signs of age. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.

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.
