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 near mint condition. There are a few faint spindle marks on each label but there are no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. There is little to no wear around the centres and overall they are clean, bright and in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, all four sides are really clean, have a vivid lustre and very little visible in normal light. There is the odd line or faint sleeve mark showing but there is nothing at all major and anything that is there is really light, thin and minor.  There are a few more extremely light wispy lines and sleeve marks showing when viewed in very bright light, but nothing at all serious and of course nothing remotely deep. The records have no serious scuffs, nasty marks or blemishes and are in lovely condition.

I play tested both the records and they played really well with high quality audio throughout. They lay flat on the deck with little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is crisp, dynamic and really clear with little to no surface noise audible in the music and only the most miniscule trace in the run in. There are obviously no skips, jumps or annoying clicks, and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire play test which passed by with nothing to report, other than high quality audio throughout.

The gatefold sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has only minor rubbing to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all still legible. There are no splits, tears or pen marks anywhere and overall it is clean and in good shape. It has no serious creasing but does have faint ring marks and also some strange marks or scuffs to the rear. These are the main issues with the sleeve and reason for lower grading. Overall a nice tidy sleeve but one that has the marks/scuffs to the rear as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible to its condition.

It contains one its original plain white inners which is in an excellent- condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some creasing and age related wear. The second inner is missing and so a bran new plain white replacement will be provided.

It does not included its 'bonus' 7" unfortunately as this has gone missing at some point.

It does include its original lyrics booklet however which is solid with no tears or pen marks but some light grubbiness/staining 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 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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
