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 purchased.
This record is in excellent condition. It has a few faint spindle marks visible on each of the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage. There are no stains or fading and the centres are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in really nice condition but do have some faint spindle marks to each side as mentioned.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean with a lovely lustre and nothing remotely serious showing in normal light. There is a few of the most minor and faint thin lines in places but these are very minor and of course cannot be felt. Other than these there is the a few more very minor wispy lines evident under bright light but of course nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in really nice condition with a lovely shine and only minor sign of use to its playing surfaces.
I play tested the record and it played nicely. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The audio produced is excellent throughout with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was no major levels of surface noise or serious interference but due to the very mellow nature of some of the audio there was an occasional minor splutter or light amount. The first track is very mellow and this has occasional light amounts of spluttering throughout. This is not loud or disruptive but can be heard faintly in places. There was also some other light amounts of splutters or minor levels of interference in other quiet parts of the album. Overall it plays with no serious faults or major levels of interference but is also not a pristine 'digital audio' experience. There is light amounts of noise in the very quiet parts of some tracks but certainly nothing major or extreme. Due to this I have graded at 'EX' despite the really nice visual appearance of the vinyl itself.
It also includes its original plain white poly-lined inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but has slight age related grubbiness and minor signs of handling/storage. The original will of course be included but the record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement.
Also included is its original lyrics insert. This is in near mint condition with no tears or pen marks and little to no creasing or signs of age.
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.
