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 successful.
This record is in very good- condition. It has spindle marks and indentations visible on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or fading. There is only minor wear around the centre holes and they are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and still in good shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or really nasty but there is lots of light surface lines, marks and sleeve scuffs visible on both sides. These are all clear signs of use and these along with more wispy lines show clearly under bright light. Overall the record is free of really major marks, still has a nice lustre but has light marks, lines and is clearly used.
I play tested the record and plays well overall but with some occasional light surface noise and also one quick skip at the end of track 1. The skip is the most serious issue to report but luckily it is quick and occurs near to the very end of track 1 and so is not majorly disruptive. It is caused by a thin line which also causes around 4 to 6 ticks between tracks 1 and 2. Other than this brief period of clicks there are no others than stand out or are massively noticeable. The only other issue would be occasional light surface noise in places but overall the audio is still very enjoyable. I personally think the majority of the audio is much closer to vg+ but with the skip and the clear signs of use to the vinyl I have graded low.
The sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has some rubbing and wear to the edges and corners(pics) but the faint text along the spine is still just about legible. There are no splits, tears, pen marks or scuffs anywhere and overall the sleeve remains solid. There is however signs of its age with ring marks, fading, some creasing in parts to both sides. So overall a strong sleeve with no major issues but some general age related wear. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It contains its original lyrics inner but this is in poor condition with splits, tears, creasing and grubbiness. I will of course include this but will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement.
The record will be packaged in 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 ensure swift delivery.
I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
