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 excellent+ condition. It has some light and faint spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, stains, scuffs or fading. There is minimal wear to the centres, and overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape, with no major issues, just some light spindle marks as mentioned.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are nice and clean overall with nothing at all nasty or major showing in normal light. There is a few faint wispy lines and very minor signs of use showing however. There is a few light handling lines and also some minor 'streaky' or 'blotchy' lines showing in places. These 'marks' are all very slight and minor and overall it is a used lp which has been well looked after over the years and shows just minor signs of age/handling.

I play tested the record and it played nicely throughout with nice clarity and minimal surface noise or interference. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no arm movement. The audio produced is excellent with no distortion, and of course no skips, sticks, pops or annoying clicks. There was also no serious levels of surface noise and certainly nothing at all disruptive. There was a trace amount in the run ins on each side and maybe the most minor fraction in some parts of the lp but certainly nothing major. Overall it was a very nice listen with no major issues and only the odd most minor fraction of surface noise in places.

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has minimal wear to the edges(just a small amount of rubbing along the bottom edges) and corners with the spine square, straight and all clearly legible. There are no pen marks(other than a name written inside the record houseing) or tears and just a couple of small minor creases. There is however a small scuff to the front top right corner. Other than this there is also a little age related fading inside the gatefold and a few small white marks to the top right corner area(inside). I have tried to describe the sleeve as honestly as I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It includes its original Vertigo inner which is in very good condition. This has no tears or pen marks but has been taped(which has discoloured over the years) along one edge. Other than the taping there is also some creasing, mild age related grubbiness/discolouring and general signs of age. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no further damage occurs to the original during transit and so the record remains clean and ready to play.  

The record will be packaged in between 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.

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.
