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 purchased.

This record is in very good condition. It has some spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a nice lustre and show nothing deep or serious. However there is light surface lines, minor sleeve scuffs and some 'mottled' areas showing when angled in normal light. So overall the record is used but has no major or serious scratches/marks and is still in good playable condition.

I play tested the record and it produced nice audio throughout. It does however have some degree of warping to it which causes the record arm to 'bob' somewhat on each side. This is visually noticeable but is not severe enough to cause issues to the audio or problems with playback. Other than the visual issues of the record arm there is no serious problems to report with no skips, sticks or tics in the audio. There is also no major surface noise or interference with the whole album playing well with audio of a solid EX grade in my opinion. 

The gatefold sleeve is in very good condition. It has some wear and rubbing to the edges and corners but the writing along the spine is still all legible. There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and the sleeve is still solid all round. It does have a few issues however. Firstly there is some 'bending' or creasing to the sleeve and it does not lay flat. Other than this there is also some age spots and grubbiness in places. These can be seen inside the gatefold and there is also an area of staining/grubbiness to the rear bottom left corner area. Overall a solid sleeve but one that has the grubbiness, light wear and 'bending' as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original lyric inner which is in very good+ condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has light creasing, ring marks and some signs of handling.

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.
