..Condition ..1) Disc : ..Vinyl - Visual : Near mint, looks to be very lightly played, no surface marks or scratches, light occasional spindle marks.
..Vinyl - Audio : Excellent - A little background noise noticible on Moonchild which plays with light clicks at the start of the track and a little light background noise is evident during some of the quiter sections. Otherwise excellent..
Due to the difficulty in discribing how a record plays / sounds I have invested in the appropiate systems to allow you to listen to the record in full, thus you can decide the play condition of the vinyl. I would judge this record as Excellent, but listen and draw your own conclusions.
The process: Record is played on a Pro-ject turntable and recorded on to recordable CD, converted to mp3 format and uploaded to player. This gives a true representation of how the record sounds including any inperfections the record may have.
Please note the sound file playing is a direct recording of the record you are buying, nothing added or taken away.
..Sleeve : Excellent -Shows a little wear to the bottom edge and a thin pencil line is present on the front of the sleeve. Otherwise excellent (see pictures).

..General : The above rates are inclusive of the cost of materials, the time to pick and package the item(s) securely, and transport to the Post Office. You only pay what it costs but this is NOT just the price of the postage.
NB all records are sent in proper record mailers and with strengthener to ensure that you receive the records in the condition they were sent.
..Packaging As you would expect, all records are packed to the highest standard with the best quality materials. The record mailer of choice is the "music O max" mailer which, in my experience, are the strongest and best mailers available (For more information check out their web site at http://www.defendapack.com). The mailers are used in conjunction with custom bought cardboard stiffeners.
Before packing the record and inner sleeve are removed from the record cover and placed into a new protective plastic sleeve (if the inner sleeve is a picture sleeve this will also be removed from the record).
