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 near mint condition. It has no obvious spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks anywhere. The centres are not loose or worn but there is some minor 'cracking' around the hole of side 1. There is also some 'mottling' or spots/fading to the label of side 2. This is the main issue with the labels but other than this they are in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean and have little visible in normal light with just a few incredibly minor light lines and very faint 'sleeve scuffs' just about visible when searched for. These very minor signs of use and are a few more minor wispy lines show under bright light, but of course nothing remotely sinister. So overall the record is in great shape, has no nasty scuffs, marks or blemishes and has a stunning vivid lustre.

I play tested the record and it plays really well and sounded superb throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is really clear with barely a trace of surface noise or interference audible in the audio. There is maybe the most minimal amount possible in the run in and between tracks but even this is next to nothing. There is no distortion caused by excessive use and of course there are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. Overall it was a superb play test and produced audio of very high quality and superb clarity.

The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has next to no rubbing/wear to the edges and corners, and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. There are of course no splits and no tears or scuffs anywhere. There is virtually no creasing and barely any ring marks visible but there is a small pen mark on the rear near the top left corner area(pics). Overall the sleeve is clean, bright, strong and in fantastic condition all round. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white inner which is in excellent- condition. This has no tears, splits or pen marks but some minor creasing, mild ring marks and age related discolouring.

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.

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.
