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 light spindle marks visible on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage. The centres are not loose and overall the labels are in good shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a couple of light scratches and marks visible in normal light. There is also one thin line of wear on side 1 in track 1 and its impact will be described below. Other than these there are more incredibly light wispy lines visible under very bright white light, but again nothing really sinister. The record has no serious scuffs or blemishes and still has a lovely shine.

I play tested the record and overall it plays well and sounds great. Firstly it lays flat and there is next to no movement in the record arm. Once playing there is a light crackle in the run in to track 1 and the early parts. This is then followed by an abrupt skip into the song which is caused by the thin line of wear mentioned above. Once this has happened(which is around 15 seconds into track 1) the rest of this track and side 1 plays well with no other such serious problems and only a little static between tracks and occasional light noise.

Side 2 plays well all the way through with just a mild crackle in the run in. There are no serious problems such as the skip on side 1 and only mild interference is in the form of light static in places. So overall the whole record plays well apart from the skip as mentioned in track 1 on side 1.

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has some minor wear to the edges and corners(pics), but the writing along the spine is all legible. It is clean, bright, has a strong spine and there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is only slight ring marks showing and no major problems with creasing, just a few short ones around the edges and spine area. So overall a solid sleeve with no major issues to report. There are a few minor indentations I should also mention but as you can imagine these are fairly minor.

It includes a plain white inner which is in excellent condition. This has only very slight creasing and minor wear but no serious issues such as splits, tears or pen marks.

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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
