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 excellent+ condition. It has a few light spindle marks visible on the labels but neither side has pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and show only minor wear. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in excellent condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean overall with nothing at all serious showing but the odd light line and some very faint 'manufacturing whiskers'(looks like scuffs and lines but are actually manufacturing 'defects') evident in normal light. These are all very minor and faint but are there nevertheless. These and a few more thin really minor light wispy lines are visible under bright light but again nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in very nice condition, has a lovely lustre and shows only light signs of use

I play tested the record and it played really well and sounded great throughout with excellent clarity and minimal surface noise or interference. It lays flat, there is no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of great quality and excellent clarity throughout with only minimal traces of interference and no serious issues to report.

The sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has wear and rubbing to the edges and corners with the majority of the writing along the spine now no longer legible. There are no splits or really weak areas anywhere however and no tears, scuffs or pen marks. There is a touch of creasing in places though and also light ring marks showing on each side when angled. There is also a sticker removal mark on the front in the top right corner area. Overall a solid enough sleeve that still looks decent enough but that does have some general age related wear as mentioned. 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 very good condition. This has no splits or pen marks but has some creasing and light discolouring/grubbiness. There is also a small 1cm tear to the top(record entry) edge.

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.
