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. The labels have only a few light spindle marks that are just visible but not many at all. There are no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere and the centre is tight. There is a scratch/line on the label of side 1 but this isn't major and overall they are in great shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are spotless and beautifully clean with nothing at all visible in normal light. There are even just a few extremely light wispy hairlines visible under very bright white light and of course nothing remotely serious. The record has no scuffs or blemishes and has a beautiful vivid shine.
I carefully play tested the record and it plays really well. It lays flat but there must be the slightest possible warp imaginable as there is just really slight movement in the record arm. This is really minor however and has no affect on the sound produced which is superb and near enough faultless. Its crisp, clear and has next to no interference or surface noise, with barely even a trace in the run in or between songs. There are obviously no skips, sticks or clicks and no other serious musical issues. Its an audio experience of very high quality and was a pleasure to play test.
The gatefold sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has mild wear/rubbing to the edges and corners, and some of the writing along the spine has been affected. Other than this it is clean, bright and there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. Inside the gatefold is immaculate with no fading or anything to report. There is however a partially removed sticker on the back in the bottom left corner and also a very faint ring mark showing in parts. Overall it is in great shape though with no splits or really serious issues. It contains its original lyrics inner which is in excellent- condition. This has no tears or pen marks and no splits yet, but both the bottom and left edges are weakening. I will therefore send the record in white replacement to ensure no damage occurs to the original lyrics inner.
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, within 24hrs of payment to ensure swift delivery.
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.
