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 excellent- condition. It has only a few very faint spindle marks visible(barely visible) on the labels and no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. There is little to no wear around the centre holes and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides have nothing remotely serious showing. There are a few faint minor light lines visible in normal light and also the occasional faint sleeve scuff but these are not deep or serious. There are some more incredibly light wispy lines and manufacturing whiskers visible under very bright light but again nothing sinister or deep. So overall a used vintage record that is free from anything remotely serious, has a lovely gloss but has some signs of use and age with a few light surface lines in places.
I play tested the record and it plays well overall and is still a very enjoyable listen. It lays flat and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is excellent overall with no major issues such as skips or sticks, and no serious levels of interference or surface noise. There was also the odd splutter or faint noise in some of the much quieter parts but overall the audio is a solid EX- grade. There was a touch of surface noise in the run in and the odd really minor light tick on side 2(much quieter parts) but nothing at all majorly disruptive and overall it was an excellent play test.
The textured gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has only light rubbing and wear to the edges and corners with the writing on the spine all legible. There are no tears, scuffs, splits or pen marks anywhere and overall the sleeve is solid all round. There is no major ring marks or serious creasing but there is a few areas of light creasing in places(front right bottom corner). As for the booklet inside this is firmly attached with no major issues but there is some brown marks on the first page. There is also a little wear around the staples but as I say it is still firmly attached. I have tried my best to explain the sleeves condition but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.
It contains a brand new plain white replacement inner as the original was missing.
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.
All offers are considered and are more than welcome.
Many thanks for looking.
