Detailed Descriptions
The Sleeve: G- Has creases to the front and crease to the top right the gatefold is intact as the spine which is clearly readable but does have a crease running through the letter B in Beatles also some wear to edges. There is a mark where some selotape once was and small rip this on the bottom right corner with also a little part of laminate has come away. There are however no seam splits anywhere.
Inner Sleeve: G Has seam splits to all sides and has selotape covering the splits. Has tracing paper inner
The Labels: G Has spindle marks around the spindle area on side 1 and some on side 2
Record Visually Graded: F There are light scratches & scuffing to both sides. There are 2 small scratches on side 1 on tracks 5 I’ll Follow The Sun & 6 Mr Moonlight which can be felt. There is a big scratch across tracks 3 & 4 on side 2 which can’t be felt. Graded under LED light!
Record Playback: EX Really strong sound. You can hear a click on track 5 on side 1 but play’s through without jumps or sticking. The record is quite quite between tracks only a little mild crackling. The record doesn’t have any warping.
Please note that the record has been professionally cleaned on a record cleaning machine with a non alcohol cleaning solution.
I use the following grading system:
M=Mint: The record/sleeve is brand new condition. Just like when first pressed and the record will have no deterioration in sound quality. All items including lyric sheet poster etc are in perfect condition.
NM=Near Mint: The record or sleeve may just marginally be off new condition and have the odd minor flaw.
EX=Excellent: The record shows signs of being played, but there is hardly any lessening in sound quality. The cover might show signs of wear.
VG=Very Good: The record has been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality. Despite the odd occasional surface marks and the odd light scratch. The cover will shows signs of usage without any major defects.
G= Good: The record has been played numerous times and the sound quality has deteriorated and plays with distortion. The cover will have seam splits, scuffing of edges, discolouration and creases/ing.
F=Fair: The record has not been cared for properly and has loud surface noise but is still just playable. The sleeve will be torn, stained/defaced.
P=Poor: The record will not play properly due scratches and will have bad surface noise. The cover will be damaged and even have parts missing.
B=Bad: The record is unplayable possibly broken, which would only be considered as a collection filler.
I use a plus and minus signs +/- to show if marginally better or worse condition.

All items are packaged well to avoid damage. I never send out any parcel I wouldn't be happy to receive myself!
All records are removed from their sleeves and placed in a new polly lined inner sleeve then placed in a new plastic sealable sleeve for posting! I use cruciform mailers which are very strong.
I am not held responsible for any import taxes, costs or charges etc that are incurred by the buyer.
The item description is very detailed and I have listed the item to the best of my knowledge. All items are strictly graded! Any Questions please ask.
