NOTES ABOUT ITEM DESCRIPTIONS
All vinyl is graded under a strong light. The lead-in of each record and ANY suspicious marks are carefully checked on our high quality decks. Any records can be given an even more through check on request. All photographs are of the actual item for sale and taken at the time of listing. Check out our feedback - 100% positive from over 12000 customers!!
Records are strictly graded using the UK RECORD COLLECTOR system - here is a reminder :
MINT : (we don't believe in the existense of MINT records - you will NEVER find a record listed here at a higher grade than NEAR 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 (but who knows ... if it is sealed!!)
EXCELLENT : The record shows some signs of having been played, but there isvery 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 major 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 : We do not bother to sell records that are in less than Very Good condition.
PACKAGING
Items are removed from their outer sleeves and supplied in a brand new protective outer sleeve. The record is cleaned on a professional cleaning machine where necessary and supplied in a brand new unused poly-lined inner sleeve along with the original inner.
