WHEN DID YOU LAST SEE THIS, IF EVER?
FROM MY OWN COLLECTION - I AM NOT A DEALER. CHECK OUT MY 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK ON EBAY.
GRADING RECORDS IS HARD BUT I TRY TO GRADE HONESTLY SO THAT IF I WON THIS RECORD I WOULD BE HAPPY WITH IT!
THE SLEEVE - NICE OVERALL CONDITION FOR AN ITEM NEARLY 50 YEARS OLD. THE QUITE THICK CARDBOARD IS FULLY INTACT BUT IT HAS SUFFERED AT SOME TIME TO LOCALISED STAINING TO THE RIGHT HAND FRONT TOP CORNER BY THE OPENING EDGE AS THERE IS A max. 1 1/4" x 1 1/4" MARK AND TO THE CORRESPONDING REAR SIDE OF THE SLEEVE THERE IS A SIMILAR STAIN MARK WHICH IS CONFINED TO THE TOP FLIPBACK AND MEASURES 1 3/4" long x 1/2" wide BUT THIS HAS NOT PENETRATED THROUGH THE SLEEVE INTO THE INSIDE SO IF IT WAS DUE TO LIQUID SPILLAGE IT WAS ONLY SHORT TERM - THE LAMINATE AND THE CARDBOARD ITSELF IN THIS AREA IS FULLY INTACT DESPITE THIS - SEE MY PICS! THE SPINE IS FULLY INTACT AND THE PRINTING FULLY LEGIBLE. ONE SMALL BUMP TO THE TOP EDGE AT MID-WIDTH. MINOR AGE MARKING TO THE FRONT NEAR THE SPINE AND TO THE REAR FLIPBACKS NO WRITING OR TEARS. THE SLEEVE IS MUCH BETTER THAN I HAVE MADE IT SOUND. IT GRADES AS A STRONG 'EX'.
INNER PAPER SLEEVE - THIS LOOKS TO BE THE ORIGINAL WHITE PAPER INNER AND IS FREE OF TEARS AND WRITING AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.
VINYL - THIS IS A NICE COPY! MATRIX no.'s XAX 2930-1 & XAX 2931-1. VINYL RETAINS LOTS OF GLOSS AND I CAN ONLY SEE ONE LOCALISED SMALL SCRATCH TO SIDE ONE WHICH AFFECTS THE FIRST TWO TRACKS BUT WHICH DOES NOT SOUND OR AFFECT THE PLAY AND FINE NARROW SCUFF ACROSS SIDE TWO WHICH DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY. THERE IS OCCASIONAL CRACKLE TO THE DISC BUT PROPER CLEANING WOULD REDUCE THIS. THE DISC PLAYS GREAT! VINYL GRADES AS STRONG 'EX'.
LABELS - VERY NICE! NO SPINDLE MARKS AND NO WRITING OR TEARS TO EITHER SIDE. THERE ARE SOME SLIGHT 'RUN' MARKS ACROSS THE SURFACE OF THE LABEL TO SIDE ONE BUT THIS COULD EVEN BE ORIGINAL? NO LASTING DAMAGE CAUSED JUST SLIGHT SURFACE FADE.
ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.
POSTAGE WILL BE BY 'RECORDED DELIVERY' OR SIMILAR AND I AM HAPPY TO PAY THE EXTRA CHARGE OVER EBAY'S MAX. £4.00 WITH FULL INSURANCE TO ENSURE THE RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY. IT WILL BE CAREFULLY PACKED!
