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 very good condition. It has faint spindle marks on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or fading. There is no major wear around the centre holes and they are not loose. 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 clear signs of use and age to both sides. There is light scuffs, wispy lines and areas of light groove wear showing on both sides. There is nothing that can be felt but the record is clearly used and has obvious signs of this as I say.
I play tested the record and played well overall with no skips, sticks or major tics and was still an enjoyable listen throughout. I has some light surface noise in the run ins and between some tracks but the majority of the audio is surface noise free. Saying this however there is the occasional amount of surface noise in the quieter parts and the odd noise, splutter or pop. Overall it plays solid and would easily grade as VG audibly on both sides but is also not a perfect or pristine listen.
The textured sleeve is in very good condition. It has a 2" split to the centre of the top edge and an area of sticker glue residue discolouring to the front top right corner. These are the two main issues but there is also light amount of grubbiness or discolouring to both sides and minor wear on the edges/corners. The sleeve has no tears or pen marks and is generally tidy visually but has some grubbiness and the two issues outlined earlier. 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 gold inner which is in good+ condition. This has splits to the bottom and right edge. It also has some fading and light creasing. I will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no further wear occurs to the original.
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.
