This record is in excellent condition. It has a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself both sides have a nice lustre and no serious marks or real scratches. It has some very light general signs of handling with wispy lines showing in bright light but nothing at all deep, serious or major. Overall it shows light signs of use and is used but has nothing nasty or extreme and is in very nice condition. 

I play tested the record and it played well. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. It has no skips, sticks or annoying clicks and was an enjoyable listen throughout. There was no serious surface noise and the clarity of the audio was excellent. There was a hint of surface noise in the run in but the intros and audio were tidy and clear.

The sleeve(which appears to be the Canadian release) is in very good+ condition. It has no serious issues such as tears, scuffs or pen marks and is solid all round. It has some rubbing/wear on the edges and corners however. The spine is legible but there is some wear showing. Other than the edge wear there is also some creasing around the edges and a little to the front bottom right corner. There is also some light fading and some grubby marks to the rear. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It includes its original plain white inner but this is tatty and discoloured and so the record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner.

The record will be packaged in between 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.
