Trying to downsize, so I am selling lots of my old hifi bits and records that I no-longer listen to or have duplicates of, so please have a look at my other items too over the next few weeks.
Artist: The Beatles
Title: Beatles for Sale
Year: 1964
Label: Parlophone
Matrix: PMC 1240 XEX 503-4N, XEX 504-4N 'KT' tax code on label
Vinyl condition: 'Good' quite a few marks and hairline scratches - has been well-used, but plays well
Sleeve/label etc condition: 'Good' the flimsy front card is a little bent, some edge wear and a few creases, a telephone number on the inside cover top, tatty/split inner, some spindle rubs on the labels

The record has been cleaned using the Nessie Vinylcleaner Pro pictured, and has been listened to before grading. It will come with a new Nagaoka anti-static inner within the original one, sealed in an plastic envelope and in a heavy-duty mailer.

I use the Record Collectors' Grading descriptions below. I will always include a basic description with '+ / -' to help explain the grading, particularly for records that are 30-50 years old. Please also look carefully at the pictures.
Record Collector Grading System

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

Very Good: 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.

Good: 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
