Description
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL RECORDS , CD's , CASSETTES AND DVD's ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED FROM START TO FINISH INCLUDING ALL SIDES FOR ALL RECORDS , THANK YOU .
ALL RECORDS ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED ON MY TRUSTY AIWA TURNTABLE AND GOOD QUALITY JVC AMP . THIS DOES ONLY HAVE A STD BASS AND TREBLE CONTROL WHICH I HAVE SET ON A HIGH " TINNY " SETTING . I LIKE TO SET IT LIKE THIS AS IT PICKS UP EVEN THE VERY SLIGHTEST BIT OF NOISE SO I KNOW I CAN DESCRIBE EVERY LP CORRECTLY ETC . I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT PLAYED ON BETTER OR TOP QUALITY SYSTEMS WITH GREATER AND MORE TECHNICAL SOUND CONTROL ETC , THESE RECORDS WILL SOUND A LOT BETTER THAN I HAVE DESCRIBED . I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I OFTEN GIVE RECORDS ANOTHER QUICK PLAY ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF TRACKS ON MY PERSONAL TOP QUALITY PIONEER SYSTEM AND I DO FIND THAT MOST OF ANY NOISES LIKE CRACKLE ETC ARE MUCH MUCH QUIETER , SOME EVEN HARDLY SOUND AT ALL . I TEST EVERY RECORD AND FIND THAT MY AIWA WILL COVER MANY OTHER SIMILAR SET UPS THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE , I DID WANT TO JUST POINT THIS OUT , THANK YOU .
Please note that i do tend to use " Very Good Condition " for most of my records , although none are heavily scratched etc and most will just have some general light surface marks only . The only exception to this is if the record does have scratches and lots of marks etc but is very rare and collectable and will be described in great detail . I never use " Mint " or " Near Mint " unless the record is unopened from it's original shrink wrap and is clearly unplayed . Even with these i am wary because if the record has been stored for years in maybe a damp garage or loft etc and has not been opened , then we can only presume it should be mint because we obviously can't actually see the record . Everyone obviously has their own opinions as to what is very good and excellent , but in my case , i tend to think that most , if not all records do have marks to some degree ( lots even from new ! ) purely because they are vinyl and mark easy and have been used over a considerable amount of time in most cases . This is why i use Very Good most of the times . This is also why i do go into great detail with my descriptions , as the term " Very Good " can be a bit vague . I do use " Excellent Condition " sometimes , but in my case , i would class this as not played very much at all , excellent shine and just a handful of the very lightest and small surface hairline marks only , most only being visible under a light , so you know that when i use excellent , i really do mean excellent . Lots of my records as you can see by my feedback are better than described , more better than very good and closer to near ( if not ) excellent and i do pride myself on this fact , this is why i do use mainly " Very Good " but with very detailed descriptions also of which i will say i can go a little OTT with noise and general condition and can often make a record sound bad when it really isn't , i do just try my best to say how it is , but as i say please do check my feedback and you will see you can bid with confidence , thank you .

Sex Pistols God Save The Queen 7" UK PS White Print Labels A7/B8 Super Audio . On UK Virgin Solid Centre Blue / White Print Labels VS 181 . B SIDE: Did You No Wrong .
COVER: Factory non laminated paper PS cover generally in good overall condition and still very nice and clean and i would say better overall than a lot on offer with no seam splits .
FRONT: Very nice and clean overall . A very very few ( two or three ) very light and very small usual general surface / handling / age related marks in places . The usual ring wear marks are present and there is some creasing present in places and there is some often seen heavier and a lot more prominent creasing and denting near all of these corners and on the centre part near the opening edge , most of this this is mainly caused by the ring wear marks from the outer edge of the record and this is quite common on this cover , i think pretty much all can be seen in the photos .
TOP / BOTTOM / LEFT HAND SIDE MAIN EDGES: ( Not Including Corners And Right Next To Corners Please See Corner Description ) . Top edge: A light and small bit of general rub wear in places . Bottom edge: A very little bit more general rub wear in places , but still quite light and mainly near the centre part . Left hand side edge: Again a bit more general rub wear present but nothing too overly excessive .
SIDE OPENING EDGES: Some usual but mostly quite light only bits of rub / dent / useage wear on the actual outer edges on the front and rear but there are the heavier bits of creasing on the centre part just near to the opening edge on the front as previously mentioned and there are a couple of extremely tiny knicks , but these are mega tiny and hardly noticeable , there are a few bits of light grubiness seen on the white cut out part on the rear but again this isn't by any means excessive as you can see , there are the usual small bits of very light dent spots present in places .
CORNERS: Some usual but mostly light and small bits of rub / dent wear on the corners mainly confined to the tip ends though not including the mentioned rub wear on the edges , there is a little more light fraying on the bottom right corner , but again this is mainly on the tip end .
REAR: A very few ( three or four ) usual but very light and very small general surface / handling / age related marks in places . The same creases as mentioned previously on the front description mainly the heavy ones near all of the corners with the few others being light only . Again there are the usual ringwear marks . Both flipbacks are intact and the sleeve is writing free . Bar the ( often seen on this flimsy cover ) creasing , this one is still in very good shape with the creases not totally covering the sleeve .
INNER SLEEVE: I put this in a plain white paper inner sleeve when i got it a couple of years ago , as i do with a lot of my more collectable PS singles , for some added protection of the record and main cover edges , so obviously this isn't original as they were never issued with one ( except the modern repro ones i think ) . This is in good condition but i did have to slightly trim the top opening edges so it would fit in the actual cover . There is a what looks like a removed sticker patch on the one side which has taken off some of the surface paper and there is one very small knick on the cut out inner circle on one side .
LABELS: Solid centre blue / white print paper labels generally in excellent condition . Very nice and clean with just a very very few very light and small usual spindle marks , being a bit picky , there is a tiny white hairline line mark just above the top right hand corner of the letter X in SEX on S1 label , but this really is tiny and extremely light as you can see . Both labels are writing free .
RECORD: The overall visual grade under normal average household light conditions is still a strong between very good and near excellent condition ( excellent top audio ) , but certainly better than very good , there are just a few very light and very small fine non feelable usual hairlines in places , mainly a cluster near the start on S2 , one extremely small but slightly more visible still hairline mark on S1 which i have tried to show in the photos , but this really is very small indeed and non sounding and there are a few again very light non feelable non sounding marks in one place on the blank run in and just near the start ( but mainly on the run in ) on S1 , any of this though really is light only , certainly non feelable and non sounding and i have probably made it out to be worse than it is , i will also add that most is only really more visible when held at certain angles to or under a light .
AUDIO A SIDE: Silent run in has some usual but very light noise . Plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music with no noise worthy of note , in fact it plays close to virtually noise free on the music and there is no nasty crackle or nasty ticks or pops , i really didn't hear any obvious noise on the music it really is that good . Silent run off has some usual but very light noise . Plays and sounds fantastic and the audio tones are still awesome .
AUDIO B SIDE: Silent run in has some usual but very light noise . Again plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music with also no noise worthy of note , again plays close to virtually noise free on the music and there is no nasty crackle or nasty ticks or pops . Silent run off has some usual but very light noise . Plays and sounds fantastic and the audio tones are still awesome .
This one must be up there with the best sounding examples out there today ! .
There were no jumps etc when tested and it still retains a nice shine . Any noises tend to be in short bursts only , are over quickly , are not constant and do not spoil any enjoyment . If any noises are more frequent or louder etc , they will be described separately in the above detailed descriptions thank you .
All in all a nice overall example of this now very collectable item together with superb sound , do turn this one up and enjoy . Thank you very much for your time and interest and happy bidding . Please do read the following ref record gradings explained thank you .
Very Good / Near Excellent: The record has obviously been played , but displays no deterioration in sound quality , despite some light only surface marks but no nasty scratches etc . Some very light noise and occasional usual light pop may sometimes be present on some quieter parts . Please see the descriptions above for the cover condition .
Please note that whilst I haven’t increased my postage charges for quite a while now , this now other recent price increase , has seen me unfortunately have to put a slight increase on my postage charges . This is also topped with the rise in cost for quality card mailers , jiffy bags , stiffeners , other packaging materials etc , Ebays 10% extra fee for seller postage costs plus their other fees and Paypal now charging 20p per item sold on Ebay plus their other fees . Please also note that I now send ALL non GF LP’s / 12" singles with a minimum of 3 stiffeners and all 7" singles with a minimum of 2 stiffeners ( more if i think they are needed ) , i never and don't agree with making money from postage and with all the added fees / extra stiffeners etc , most of my records including LP's sell for between £2 and £6 so all of this whilst not sounding a lot , does soon mount up and i actually do lose money on posting records , but I do obviously want to still remain competitive and still offer my usual top quality service , sorry again for this , thank you .
