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 some spindle marks visible on each
label but there are not loads and there are no pen marks, stains or
scuffs anywhere. The centres show minimal wear and are not worn or
loose. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in good
shape but with the few spindle marks as mentioned.
As
for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre
and have
nothing remotely serious
or deep visible in normal
light but there is the odd faint sleeve 'scuff' and
the odd minor thin line showing when angled. These are all faint and
minor but are a sign of use and can be seen when angled. These
and some more
incredibly light
wispy lines are
visible under very bright light but again nothing
remotely deep or sinister. The record has no serious scuffs, nasty deep
marks or
blemishes, has a lovely vivid lustre and overall is in nice condition but does
have the off faint light line and some signs of use as mentioned.
I
play tested the record and it played well with nice audio and no
serious issues at all. It lays flat on the deck and
upon playing there is little to no arm movement noticeable. The audio
has no sticks, skips, clicks or pops. There was also little to no surface noise audible with only a minor amount in the run in/out. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire play test and noted little, it plays well.
The
sleeve
is in excellent-
condition. It has just light wear
to the edges and
corners but there is a small 1cm tear up the bottom edge from the front right corner. Other than this the edges show little and are all strong. There
are no
splits anywhere and no scuffs
or pen
marks. There is some light grubbiness or discolouring to each side however. This is not extreme but the white areas show some yellowing and grubbiness in places. Overall a solid sleeve with no major issues but some discolouring and the small tear as mentioned. I have
tried to
describe the sleeve as best I can but please
study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as
to its condition.
It
contains its original plain white inner which is in excellent
condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some light discolouring in places.
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.
