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 near mint condition. It has a few(4-5) faint spindle marks visible on each label but no pen marks, scuffs or fading. The centres are not loose and overall the labels are in great shape with just the light spindle marks to report.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are in great shape with little visible in normal light and nothing remotely serious. The only thing I can see when angled is one thin light minor line and some incredibly faint light sleeve marking/scuffing. These very minor issues are all on side 1 with nothing showing on side 2 at all. When viewed under very bright white light this incredibly light minor sleeve marking is showing and a few more light lines, buts not loads and nothing remotely serious. The record has no serious scuffs, marks or blemishes and has a stunning vivid shine.

I play tested the record and it played really well with superb audio throughout. It lays flat, there is little to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is fantastic throughout both sides. Its crisp, dynamic and really clear with only the most minimal trace of surface noise in the run in and the very early parts of side 2. This 'inferference' is incredibly minor and overall the audio is top rate. There is no distortion caused by excessive use and of course there are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks/pops. It was a superb audio experience and was a pleasure to play test.

The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has just a couple of small arear of wear or damage to the edges. Most noticable there is a 1cm area of wear or 'nick' to the top edge(right side). Other than this there is just very light rubbing in places and some slight bruising on the corners. There are of course no splits and the text on the spine is mostly all legible with just the catalogue number taking some rubbing. Overall it is in great shape with no real ring marks showing and little to no creasing. There are no tears, pen marks or major scuffs but there is a tiny 2mm squared mark or scuff on the front towards the top right corner area. Other than this and the for mentioned edge wear it is in great shape and has no major issues. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white poly-lined inner which is in excellent- condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but does have some creasing and discolouring.

It also includes its original lyrics insert which is in very good condition. This has no tears, pen marks or staining but does have creasing in parts. This is mainly to the far left edge(when opened). Overall it is still presentable however but with the creasing as mentioned.

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 ensure swift delivery.
