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 just a few spindle marks visible on the labels and no scuffs, pen marks or fading. There is minimal wear around the centres and they are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in very nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean overall. There is the odd most minor short faint line and also one small(5mm) mark in track 2 on side 1. Other than this small mark and the odd faint line there is superficial 'mottling' faintly showing over both sides. This is not extreme and is faint but can be seen when angled. Overall the vinyl is in very nice condition for its age and is certainly not covered in scratches or marks  There is the odd faint line, the small mark(track 2) and the mottling but nothing much else. It is in very nice condition overall.

I play tested the record and it played very well. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The audio produced has no skips, sticks or loud annoying clicks and only minimal traces of occasional light surface noise. The small mark mentioned above in track 2 does cause a series of the most faint ticks possible. These sound in places but a lot of them cannot be heard at all, and despite them being there they are not hugely disruptive. Other than these the record plays with solid EX+ audio until the end. For its age it plays great with no serious interference or problems.

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has no major wear to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all still clearly legible. There is no splits or scuffs  anywhere but there is a small 8mm tear to the rear bottom flipback(see pics). Other than this tear there is a couple of small areas of laminate bubbling and also a patch of laminate missing to the rear left side(hard to actually notice). There is also some mild age spots showing on the front and very minor ring marks. On the whole the sleeve is excellent with no really major issues and for its age it still looks great. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to the sleeves condition.

It contains its original 'rice-paper' inner which is in very good condition with no splits or pen marks but with creasing and age related discolouring. I will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no further wear occurs to the original.

It also includes its original lyrics insert. This is in very good condition with no tears or pen marks but it does have age spots and grubbiness to each side and also inside.

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.
