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 very good+ condition. It has just a few very faint spindle marks on the labels and there are no pen marks, stains or scuffs anywhere. The centres show little to no wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape with no major issues to report.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have nothing at all serious visible in normal light but there is some light thin lines, faint sleeve 'scuffs' and areas of light groove wear. These are all light but are a sign of use and do clearly show under bright light. So overall the record is used but has no serious nasty marks or blemishes and has a lovely gloss. It does however have light lines, faint scuffs and areas of wear as mentioned.

I play tested the record and it played really well throughout. It lays flat, there is next to no arm movement in the record arm and the sound produced is very enjoyable. It has only the most minor occasional trace of surface noise or interference audible and no skips, sticks or clicks. I noted a hint of faint surface noise in some of the much quieter parts(such as track 1 and track 5 on side 2) but overall the audio was closer to a grade of EX+.

The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has only a touch of wear and rubbing to the edges and corners(pics), with the writing along the spine still legible. There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and a little to no creasing. There is no obvious ring marks or grubbiness and overall the sleeve looks great. There is a very small 'dent' or 'ding' to the rear left(record entry) edge but this is minor and overall the sleeve is in very nice condition. 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 picture/info inner in very good condition. This has some ring marks, faint 'age spots' and a small 2" split in the centre of the left edge. I will of course send the record in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no further wear occurs to the original.

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 myeBay 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.
