>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Vinyl condition*: EX

Labels: The labels are nice and clean with feint spindle marks. 

Spindle hole: Nice and clean

Playing surface: Both sides are clean and shiny with some light handling marks under light. There is a tiny scuff in the run in on side 2, which offers a few crackles, but nothing to severe. All in all its great for a 42 year old

Run Off: Lovely & shiny, with a few feint swirls

Sound*: VG

After listening right through this album, the sound is really good, but there are a few spells with some crackles, particularly the run in/outs and the linking grooves. The painfully long faded intro to side 2 track 3 has a brief spell of louder crackle, which soon fades. Overall there is great depth and range of sound and good overall clarity. Nice loud press with no skips or jumps

Overall its a good sound, with a few sections with more pronounced crackle. 

Cover, sleeves and insert condition*: EX

Outer PVC Sleeve: The printing is a little worn in the centre, but the bands heads are near perfect. The text is readable and very crisp. Logo bottom right is faded. No splits, holes or tears. A few creases, but overall in great shape

Card cover: The printed colours are sharp and it looks really nice on each side. The front has a couple of 2 cm crescent shaped creases, but they only really show under light. The back has a tiny 1 cm vein very top right edge. Inside is really crisp with feint ring wear on both sides. No edge damage at all. 

Inner sleeve: No splits, rips or tears. There is ring wear marks on the edges of both sides, but its pretty light. 

Overall a really nice copy with really loud sound, with some spells of crackle. The vinyl looks good and the packaging is all complete and really tidy

VINYL GRADE DESCRIPTION GUIDE

MINT (M): A perfect record that looks like it has just left the factory, with NO flaws what so ever looking as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains.

NEAR MINT (NM): The record appears virtually flawless at first glance and has a great luster. It should only have very minor scuffs or marks on the surface of the vinyl, which are only visible under strong light. It should play without any noise particularly over the flaw. 

EXCELLENT (EX): A record with only minor scuffs, which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a few scuffs or marks. It should play without any noise over the flaw.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record shows wear which could include surface scuffs and marks, blotches or stains. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. The flaws may cause some surface noise. 

A plus (+) or (-) following the condition indicate variations of the condition i.e. VG+ is in slightly better condition than VG but not excellent.

SLEEVE & INSERTS GRADE DESCRIPTION GUIDE

MINT (M): The cover is free of any stickers, address labels, writing or labels. There are no tears or seam splits or wear / fading to the cover. The age of the record has not affected the condition. The cover, sleeve and any inserts (posters, stickers, lyric sheets) look brand new.

NEAR MINT (NM): The cover looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age.

EXCELLENT (EX): The artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. There may be some impressions to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no dis-colouration. It may have some slight creases to the corners, but no major wrinkling, holes or other damage. 

VERY GOOD (VG): The artwork looks clean but with slightly more wear. This could include some fading due to minor sun damage, but there will be know no stains or mildew from water damage. Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through.
