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.

These records are in very good+ condition. There are faint spindle marks on each label but there is no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres show mild wear but are not loose and overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, all four sides have a nice lustre and show no nasty, deep or serious marks/scratches. There is however some signs of use with sleeve scuffs, light lines or minor scratches, some areas of minor wear and general light signs of use and age to each side. Overall they show signs of use on all four sides but are also still in good playable condition with no nasty, deep or obvious scratches.

I play tested both the records and they both played well with enjoyable and tidy audio throughout. They lay flat on the deck with little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced has no skips, sticks or annoying tics and is a solid grade of 'EX' on each side. There is no serious surface noise or disruptive levels of interference but there is the odd light amount of surface noise or occasional minor noise. There is the occasional light splutter in parts but overall all four sides play well and would certainly match the VG+ visual grade.

The gatefold sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has some wear and rubbing on the edges and corners but the text on the spine is still legible. The sleeve is solid and there are tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is only a few minor creases in places but there is light ring marks showing. There is also some fading to the rear and faint age spots or grubbiness to both sides. This can be seen at its worse on the front. Overall a solid sleeve with no major issues but some grubbiness and general signs of age. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible to its condition.

It contains both of its original lyric inners which is solid with no splits, tears or major issues. There is no serious creasing or major issues but there is some light age spots or minor grubbiness in places. I will send the records in two brand new plain white replacements to ensure no damage 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 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.
