LP 12" (30 cm) :

Czar - Same,

Fontana 6309 009, UK '70 (original), with original-innersleeve,

Condition :

Condition of the record - audio grading :
in English strict RC grading standards I would say a strong M- (no audible scratches, only a few times played, NEARLY NO background noise !!!) - "background noise" in this case means that kind even a brand new record can have - I heard new records which had more - there is no distortion, both channels are clean and sharp - no pops, no crackle. 

Condition of the record visually :
is difficult to grade. G ? Both labels had stickers. When peeling off the labels got superficial damage - the label on side 2 has (caused by "warming up" with a lighter) a little, flat deepening, (scarcely) visible on side 1 as a little, flat swelling - SEE PICTURES !!! The label faults are only optical - except for low noises in the running out-groove they don't injure the acoustic of the record in anyway - the recorded part of the vinyl has its normal condition - not wavy, not warped.

Condition of the cover : EX+, innersleeve EX.

I have described this record strictly according to English RC (Record Collector) Grading Systems.

RC Grading Systems :

Mint (M)
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX)
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 (VG)
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 (G)
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 use of  plus (+) or minus (-) allows for items that fall between the above grades.

Mailing details :

All records are sent in plastic covers with the record taken out of the sleeve and sent in professional mailers  with professional stiffners for extra protection. A brand new innersleeve is included -  the original innersleeve too, if available and in a condition to be worthwhile.
