Play Tested/ Strictly Graded:

Vinyl- Sounds fabulous with minimal surface noise that I could hear ( just for a split second on the intro to Eight Days A Week). Visually it has a couple of light , superficial hairlines only visible under strong light. Not much sign of any significant spindle wear.  Ex to Ex+

Sleeve- In really good shape, a crisp and sharp front  with just minor edge and corner wear. There is a small and quite faint " 109" written on top of the internal gatefold flipback. See pics. Spine clear and readable. A solid Ex

Emitex poly lined Inner-Ex see pics

This will come with a new pvc protective outer sleeve  and a new white inner sleeve along with the original ' use Emitex' poly- lined inner.

Please not that I am only posting out using Royal Mail Signed for delivery at the moment as the postal service is more erratic than usual due to the ongoing  situation. I do not make a profit on Packaging and Shipping,in fact I lose money on every order due to the fact that I use quality Record Mailing boxes/ stiffening pads and usually include a new pvc and new inner sleeve with most orders. However:

I Will combine shipping with any of my other items. Just add purchases to your basket and request an amended invoice ( this Only works on the full eBay site on PC/ Mac and not on the mobile app. or pay separately and I will refund the excess postage amount on dispatch.

I use the Record Collector Grading System sometimes with a + or - to indicate that it's slightly better or slightly worse than that.

Mint- The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT; The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD; The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD; The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR; The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. I will not sell any vinyl below this grade.
