Thank-you for viewing my auction. I am a vinyl obsessive for many years and specialise in eighties pop/rock. I do also get some nice earlier stuff in from time to time, particulary anything connected to the Beach Boys, Kate Bush and the Beatles (and solo works), and anything related to Eighties synth pop. I am very honest with all my listings and try to keep my prices fair and reasonable while keeping a very strict rating system and a high quality postage and packing method to avoid nasty surprises for my auction winner.

NOTES; DID SOME RESEARCH AND THE MT/MD HAND ETCHING SEEMS TO INDICATE VERY LOW MOTHERS ON THE ALBUM, CAN'T FIND ANOTHER LISTED WITH SAME ETCHINGS SO INDICATES A SPECIAL FIND, KT STAMP, NORMAL SIGNS OF AGE, NOTHING DRASTICALLY WRONG WITH SLEEVE, ALL GOOD POINTERS ON A CRACKING BARGAIN FOR SOMEONE AS THIS IS IN MY OPINION THE GREATEST ALBUM RELEASED :)

I use the Record Collectors Grading System when selling my vinyl. I am VERY strict with my gradings. I will not sell records if they jump and skip. I play test EVERYTHING I sell without exception on a Project turntable. I play all the way through, beginning to end, no exceptions. You can't grade a record holding it up to a light.

GRADINGS EXPLAINED;

Mt = Mint: Never been played or item still sealed. Cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster (ie contents) are in perfect condition.
Mt- = Near Mint: In brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Cover and contents nearly perfect.
Ex = Excellent: Shows some signs of being played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Cover and contents might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VG+ = Better than Very Good: Obviously been played but no significant deterioration in sound quality despite light surface marks. Very little wear and tear on cover and contents, without any major defects.
VG = Very Good: Obviously been played many times but no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on cover or contents, without any major defects.
Gd+ = Better than Good: Sound quality has deteriorated but with no distortion. Light scratches and occasional mild scratch. Cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges but not spine splits or discoloration.
Gd = Good: Sound quality has noticably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion. Mild scratches. Cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc.
Fair: Still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise - it may even jump. Cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
Poor: Will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc. Cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
