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 spindle marks and rubbing visible on the labels but there is little to no fading and no pen marks or scuffs anywhere. The centres show some wear but are not loose. Overall the labels are free of really major issues or defects and are in decent shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything really deep but there is signs of use with some light surface lines, mild sleeve scuffs and the odd more noticeable mark/light scratch showing. These are all fairly mild however and cannot be felt, but are nevertheless a clear sign of use. Under bright light all these light surface lines and marks do clearly show along with more, but there is again nothing really sinister or deep.

I play tested the record and it plays through well overall but is not a perfect pristine audio experience. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no movement in the record arm. The audio is still enjoyable but there is some light surface noise in places and the occasional light pop or splutter. There are no skips or sticks and no really loud ticks that destroy large sections of audio. It really just has some light surface noise audible in the run in, between tracks and faintly throughout the audio. Overall it can still be enjoyed and considering its age it plays pretty well but saying this it is not perfect audio.

The sleeve is in very good- condition. It has some wear and rubbing to the edges and corners(pics), but the writing along the spine is still all legible. There are no splits anywhere and overall the sleeve still remains solid. It has however been taped down the record entry edge and so this makes it look a little tatty. Other than this there are no no tears or scuffs anywhere on the sleeve but there is a small pen mark on the rear in the top left corner. There is also light ring marks showing and also some grubbiness/discolouring to both sides(mostly on rear). There is no major issues with creasing but there is some laminate bubbling around the record entry edge. Overall not a perfect sleeve but one that is still solid and is holding together ok for its age. I have tried to describe it as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original poly-lined inner which has no splits but does have some discolouring and age related grubbiness.

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 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.

Many thanks for looking.
