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. The labels have a few light spindle trails visible, but no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centre hole isn't loose and overall the labels are in great shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything really serious and have little visible in normal light. There are a few very light lines visible when tilted into light and also two other marks(both 1.5cm) on side A. These both luckily enough occur mainly in the run in however with both only partially being into the first track. When viewed under very bright white light, there is again nothing majorly serious and just extremely light wispy lines become visible. The record has no serious scuffs or blemishes and has a beautiful shine.
I carefully play tested the record and it plays really well. It must have a very slight storage warp however as upon starting you can see just very slight upward movement in the record arm. This is very minor however and is purely just a very mild visual issue and has no affect on the sound produced. The sound is superb, its crisp, dynamic and has little background noise or interference, with just a trace audible in the run in and occasionally between songs. The marks in the run in on side 1 have no impact and create no audible problems. There are no skips, jumps, annoying clicks or any other major issues. Its a very enjoyable audio experience and was a pleasure to play test.
The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has only slight wear to the edges and corners(pics), and the writing along the spine is all clearly legible. All the edges are strong and there are no splits or weak areas where one may develop. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere, but there is a few grubby marks to the front and back(bottom central area). There is also a small dent on the front towards the top central area. All these issues are fairly minor however and overall it is in excellent condition with inside the gatefold clean, bright and free from any laminate creasing. It contains a plain white inner which is strong all round with no splits or serious issues, although it does have considerable creasing.
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, within 24hrs of 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.
