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 excellent+ condition. It does have a few light spindle marks visible on the labels, but no pen marks or any other damage. As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean. Side 1 has one 3" very light hairlines visible, but other than this there is almost nothing visible in normal light on either side. There are just a couple more extremely light wispy hairlines in very bright white light, but again nothing remotely deep or serious. The record has no scuffs or blemishes and has a beautiful vivid(ruby/blood red) shine. It is in brilliant condition.
I play tested the record and it plays near perfectly. It lays completely flat and there is no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is stunning; its crisp, clear and has virtually no background noise. There are obviously no skips, jumps, sticks or any other musical interference. Its a quality audio experience.
The wallet style textured gatefold sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has only very slight wear to the edges and corners(pics), and all writing is fully legible. It is clean, bright and has a strong spine. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere, but there is wear to the 'wallet flap' and the tab has split in two(could easily be glued I think). Other than the problem with the flap, the only other thing to mention is a sticker removal mark on the front in the top left corner(pics), which is visible mainly when tilted.
It contains a poly-lined plain white inner in very good condition, with no splits, but it does have age related discolouring and two small tears.
The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also come in a free, new protective plastic sleeve and will be sent 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.
