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.

These records are in excellent- condition. There are a few light spindle marks on each label but not many and no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres show little to no wear, are not loose or worn, and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, all sides are very clean overall, have a vivid gloss and have nothing major visible in normal light. There is one small scratch on side 2 in tracks 1 and 2, but other than this there is little on any side, with just some really soft light surface lines just about visible when angled. These light signs of use show under bright light but there is again nothing major, and overall all sides have a lovely gloss and on the whole are very clean.

I play tested both the records and they both played really well overall. Both do play with some visual upward movement however. They seem to lay flat on the deck but upon playing there is clear upward movement on every side. This is the main issue with the records but despite this it is not at a level to cause issues to playback or the audio. It is purely a visual problem. Other than the arm movement or mild warping the other fairly minor issue is the small scratch mentioned above. This causes faint but audible ticks in track 2 on side 2. These are not really loud and although they can be heard in this track they do not destroy it. Other than this track all 39 others played great with nothing more than the occasional light amount of surface noise to report. Overall it was a great listen and produced nice quality, clear sound for the vast majority but with the issue in track 2 and the visual arm movement as mentioned.

The gatefold sleeve is in near mint condition. It has little to no wear or rubbing to the edges and corners, with the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and overall it is clean, bright and strong all round. It has no real creasing to the laminate and barely any ring marks showing. Overall it is in great shape with very little to report and nothing at all serious. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It contains both its original plain white poly-lined inners which are in a similar excellent- condition. Neither has splits, tears or pen marks but both have some very slight creasing and some 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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
