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 purchased.
This record is in excellent condition. It has a few spindle marks visible on the labels but no serious issues such as scuffs, stains or pen marks. All text is clearly legible, and overall the 'pink rim' labels are in nice shape. The labels are the rarer version with no 'Island Records Ltd' credit to either side, and the Witchseason logo just found on side A.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free of anything at all serious and have a lovely lustre. There are some light signs of use and age showing however, but these are more noticeable when angled into direct light. There are no heavy marks or serious issues and it is a strong grade of 'EX' overall. Saying this, there is light signs of use and age showing and it is not pristine.
I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck, and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent throughout, with no skips, sticks or annoying tics, and little to no surface noise or interference of any sort. Overall it was a really enjoyable listen, with nice clarity and audio that would easily match the 'EX' visual grade.
The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has minimal wear on the edges and corners with the spine clearly legible. There is hardly any creasing or ring marks, and barely any fading. There is no serious creasing and overall it is a very tidy example. 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 blue Island inner which in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but with some discolouring, light creasing and mild general signs of age. The record will of course be sent in a new plain white replacement inner to ensure no damage occurs to the original.
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.
Many thanks for looking.
