Grade: Vinyl - Very Good

Grade: Sleeve - Very Good+

(Graded as per Rare Record Price Guide)

The laminated non flip back sleeve is in very good+ condition. Edges, spine and corners clean and legible. A couple of laminate finger marks near sleeve entrance. Light angel lines at top and bottom edges.The rear of the sleeve is clean and bright. A light crease at the rear bottom left corner. See photos.

The record is in very good condition.  I have played tested the LP both sides and it plays with some occasional background sound in quieter passages of play. Physical examination shows some scuffs / marks evident in bright light.

Grading:

MINT: 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.

EXCELLENT: 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.

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.

FAIR: 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.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler
