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 excellent+ condition. It has just a couple of light spindle marks visible on the labels and 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 nice shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both are nice and clean overall with a lovely lustre and nothing at all deep or major showing. There is a couple of minor short marks showing on each side but these are very minor. Overall it is a nice and clean record with nothing at all major or serious but with slight signs of use showing. 

I play tested the record and it played well. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent with no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was also little surface noise for the vast majority of the lp, with just a minor amount in the run ins  and a touch in the intro or early stages of track 1 on side 1. This was still minor however and overall the audio is great and of good clarity.

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has just very slight wear or rubbing to the edges and corners, and the writing along the spine is still all legible. There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and no major issues with creasing. There is a few light lines/indentations showing to the front and rear however. Inside the gatefold has no major issues and overall it is a solid and tidy sleeve with no major issues but light general signs of its age. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It includes its original plain white inner which is in very good+ condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has some creasing, ring marks and discolouring. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement so it remains clean and ready to play.

It also includes a Genesis Promotional T-Shirt flyer insert, which is in excellent condition.

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.
