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.

These records are in excellent condition. There are a few very faint spindle marks on each of the the labels but not loads and no there are no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres show a little wear in places but are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are in great shape with nothing remotely serious to report. 

As for the vinyl itself, all four sides are very clean overall, have a vivid shine and have nothing remotely serious visible in normal light. There is a few thin lines and very minor sleeve scuffs on side 2 but nothing horrific. The other sides have the odd line showing but just the minor signs of use and a few minor lines really. Record 2 does have some very minor superficial manufacturing whiskers showing but these are not serious at all. Overall all four sides are very clean with nothing serious. Side 2 has a few very light lines and shows the most sign of use but even this would grade high visually. There are no nasty marks, serious scuffs or blemishes to any side and all have a lovely vivid gloss.

I play tested both the records and they played very well for the vast majority with excellent clarity and quality audio overall. They both lay flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm on either. The audio produced is very enjoyable throughout all four sides and is free of any real surface noise with just a hint between tracks and in the run in/out. There are no skips, jumps or severely disruptive clicks but there was one faint series of clicks for the first third of track 4 on side 2. These are caused by a small(1cm) light mark and can be heard but only faintly and are masked well by the audio on the whole. Despite these faint clicks in this track the majority of the audio is superb and has little to no interference. Overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable play test which has no major issues or surface noise and just the small issue in one track on side 2.

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has a minor amount of wear and rubbing to the edges and corners, but the writing along the spine is still all legible. There are no splits anywhere and no tears, scuffs or pen marks. There is however some slight ring marks/fading showing in part to both sides. There is also some minor creasing in places(front top left corner) and a few very minor indentations. Overall the sleeve is strong with no major issues but has some light age related wear as mentioned. Inside the gatefold has no issue at all by the way and is in great shape. 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 both its two original plain white/blue Decca poly-lined inners which are both in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks. There is some mild creasing, slight discolouring and some minor wear to the edges but nothing horrific.

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.
