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 successful.

This record is in good+ condition. It does have spindle marks visible on the labels, but no pen marks or any other damage, they are in good shape. As for the vinyl itself, both sides have light surface lines and marks visible in normal light. There are lots more light wispy lines visible under very bright white light, but nothing really deep or sinister. The record has no serious scuffs or blemishes and still has a nice shine.

I play tested the record and it plays well. It lays really flat and there is next to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is very good. Side 1 plays great with no issues at all; no clicks, crackles or pops and all round great audio. Side 2 isn't so good with the first three tracks which are mellow suffering from a constant background crackle. Once the audio moves away from the soft, melodic style again the audio is again nice with only occasional interference. So overall not an ideal listen but also not a disaster, its just the very soft, quiet parts that suffer really. Side 1 was great, as was much of side 2, apart from track 1, 2 and the early parts of 3. There are no jumps, sticks or serious annoying clicks, its just the crackle in side 2 that is the problem.

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has next to no wear to the edges and corners(pics), and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere, but there is a sticker removal mark on the front in the top right corner area. There is also some extremely faint ring marks and very slight discolouring throughout. The record will come with a plain white inner which is clean and strong, as the original lyric inner is missing.

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 ensure 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.
