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 near mint condition. It has a few very faint spindle marks visible on the labels but there is not many. The labels are clean, bright and in nice condition overall with no scuffs, stains or pen marks and all text clearly legible. 

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean with a lovely lustre and little to nothing showing in normal light. There are a few light signs of use showing under bright light, but certainly nothing major or obvious. Overall it is in very nice condition with just the slightest signs of use to its playing surfaces.

I play tested the record and it played very well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent throughout with no skips, sticks or annoying tics. There was also hardly any surface noise with the general clarity excellent. The intros and run ins on each side were also tidy and overall it was a great listen.

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has minimal wear on the edges and corners with just the lightest rubbing along the bottom edges. The spine is square, straight and all the text is clearly legible. There are no scuffs, tears or pen marks on the sleeve and hardly any creasing. Inside the gatefold is clean and in really nice condition. The front is also great with only the most minor fraction of fading in places. The rear is tidy but has some light age related grubbiness/discolouring around the edges and a faint mark/smudge to the left centre area. Overall a very nice sleeve however with no major issues and minimal wear. 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 lyric inner which in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but with some slight age related discolouring and light ring marks. The record will of course be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.

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.
