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 near mint condition. It has just a few short and faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs, fading or staining anywhere. The centres show no serious wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in very nice shape. There is a 'Factory Sample - Not For Sale' sticker to the bottom half of side 2 however.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and show little. There is a couple of faint wispy lines just about visible when angled in normal light but there is nothing remotely serious or obvious. Overall it is in really nice condition with nothing at all obvious or major and just very slight signs of use to its playing surfaces.
I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no arm movement noticeable.
The audio produced is excellent with nice clarity and of course no skips, sticks or loud annoying tics. I did note 2 or 3 very light tics in the opening couple of seconds of side 2 but these were very light and only sound very softly at the very start. Other than these there is little to mention with very little surface noise and next to no interference of any sort. Overall a very nice sounding UK 1st press with no major issues and just slight signs of its age.
It includes its original rounded corner red lyric inner which is in excellent+. This has very slight signs of age/handling with a fraction of wear to the centre of the bottom edge but it is solid with no splits, tears or pen marks. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white inner to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.
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.
