GRADING/CONDITION
SLEEVE - VERY GOOD PLUS - ONLY DOWN GRADED DUE TO SOME MARKS TO THE WHITE AREAS FRONT AND REAR FROM STORAGE. NOT THE BEST OF SLEEVES BUT STILL PRESENTABLE AND REFLECTED IN THE LOW PRICE. THE VINYL MORE THAN MAKES UP FOR IT THOUGH.
ORIGINAL INSERT - VERY GOOD - LIGHT MARKS ONLY
INNER SLEEVE - VERY GOOD - NO SPLITS OR TEARS
VINYL - LOOKS AND PLAYS EXCELLENT PLUS TO NEAR MINT PLAY TESTED WITH SUPERB AUDIO - NOT MANY AROUND AS GOOD AS THIS
## BUY WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE ##
ALL VINYLS ARE PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED AS BELOW.
I VISUALLY INSPECT THE VINYLS UNDER A HALOGEN TEST LAMP THAT WOULD SHOW THE TINIEST OF MARKS THAT WOULD NOT NORMALLY BE VISIBLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT. ANYTHING FOUND WOULD BE REFLECTED IN THE GRADING. I AM USUALLY OVER CRITICAL WITH MY GRADINGS AS I VALUE MY FEEDBACK AND WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE. ALL ARE TEST PLAYED AND ALL STRICTLY GRADED TO THE RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING GUIDE. IF ANY ARE BETWEEN GRADES, I WILL GRADE DOWN RATHER THAN UP. PLEASE SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR GUIDE.
I TAKE GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN ENSURING YOU RECEIVE EXACTLY WHAT IS DESCRIBED.
VINYLS ARE PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED ON A MOTH RCM PRO, LEAVING A BEAUTIFUL CLEAN PLAYING SURFACE. ONLY L'ART DU SON FLUID IS USED FOR CLEANING. VINYL IS PLACED IN A NEW INNER SLEEVE AFTER CLEANING

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide: " The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing. The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced. The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
