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 visible on the labels but no pen marks, stains or scuffs. There is no major fading or grubbiness and overall the labels are clean, bright and in decent shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from serious deep scratches but there is some light surface lines and sleeve scuffing showing in normal light. There is also a few other light marks and two more noticeable scratches to side 1. These are luckily not really nasty or at all deep however and purely surface marks. There is some more wispy lines showing under very bright light but not a horrific amount. Overall a used vintage record which although not perfect is free of anything really nasty or deep and still has a nice lustre.
I play tested the record and it played well overall with no skips, sticks or majorly disruptive clicks. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. There is only very light, very occasional surface noise in places and nothing at all drastic or disruptive. I did hear light ticks between tracks 4 and 5 on side 2 however, and these also continue very faintly into track 5. These were soft however and overall the record plays well. I noticed no major levels of distortion caused by excessive use with just a hint in track 6 on side 2. Overall I still enjoyed the entire play test which other than some odd minor interference had no major issues to report.
The front laminated sleeve is in very good condition. It has only mild wear and rubbing to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all still clearly legible. There are no splits or weak areas anywhere and the sleeve remains solid all round. There are no tears or scuffs on the sleeve but there is a pen mark on the rear in the top right corner and also two further pen marks on the front(along the top edge). There is also a little laminate creasing to the and mild ring marks to both sides. There is also some age related grubbiness and discolouring to the rear. Overall a solid enough sleeve but one that does show its age in places with some general age related wear and grubbiness. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It includes its original EMI inner which is in very good+ condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has some age related creasing and discolouring.
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 try to ensure a swift delivery.
