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 just a couple of light and faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in really nice condition.
As for the vinyl itself both sides are nice and clean with a good lustre and no heavy sign of use. It has some faint and superficial blotchy/streaky marks in places, one faint line in track 1 on side 2 and couple of other very slight thin lines but nothing remotely deep, serious or obvious. Overall it shows light signs of use but certainly nothing excessive and is in very nice condition.
I play tested the record and it played very well with nice clarity throughout. It lays flat on the deck and there is little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of nice quality and good clarity throughout.
The gatefold sleeve is in near mint condition. It has no serious issues such as tears, scuffs or pen marks and is very tidy all round. It has very little wear on the edges and corners with the spine all clearly legible. It does have a light amount of rubbing to the bottom and top edges however. Other than this very minor issue there is little to report with no obvious ring marks and hardly any creasing. There is a fraction of discolouring or very slight fading around the rear top and bottom edges but this is only very slight. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.It includes its original plain white poly-lined inner which is in excellent condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks and just light signs of age(discolouring).
The record will be packaged in between 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 try to ensure a 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.
