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 very good condition. It has spindle marks and rubbing visible on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. There is no serious wear around the centre holes and overall the labels show signs of use but are tidy enough.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or very serious but there is surface lines, light marks and signs of use showing. There is nothing that can be felt as I say but there is light/faint marks and minor scratches to each side and the record is used. These marks/lines clearly show under bright light along with some more wispy lines. Overall a used vintage record that has signs of this but also has no deep or major scratches and also has a nice lustre.
I play tested the record and it played well overall and although not perfect was certainly still a very enjoyable listen. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The audio produced has no skips, sticks or loud annoying tics but there is light surface noise in places. There is also the odd splutter or minor noise and some slight distortion to parts of side 1. All these 'issues' were pretty mild however and overall I noted the audio to be a solid 'VG+' on each side. It is not perfect but is also free of major issues or serious interference.
The gatefold sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has light wear and rubbing to the edges and corners but the writing on the spine is still legible. The sleeve remains solid and there are no splits or weak areas. Other than the mild edge wear there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks and inside the gatefold has no serious issues(has light creasing and very minor grubbiness). The front and rear do both have ring marks and creasing evident however. This is not extreme but the laminate is not fresh and crisp as it should be with also light laminate 'scuffing' to each side. Overall a solid sleeve with no serious problems and just general signs of age really. I have tried my best to explain the sleeves condition but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.
It includes its original plain white inner which is in very good condition with no splits or serious issues but some signs of age and handling such as discolouring, creasing and a pen mark to one corner.
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.
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.
