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.
These records are in near mint condition. There are only a few very light spindle marks on the labels and there are no pen marks anywhere. There is next to no wear around the centres but there is some 'smudging' to the label of side 4. This is pretty minor however and overall they are clean, bright and in good shape.
As for the vinyl itself, all four sides are very clean, have a vivid lustre and show nothing at all serious in normal light. There are a few extremely light wispy lines, faint sleeve marks and minor 'manufacturing whiskers' showing but nothing at all serious and of course nothing remotely deep. The records have no serious scuffs or nasty marks and are in lovely condition overall.
I play tested both the records and they played well with nice audio throughout. They lay flat on the deck with little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. There is no serious surface noise or major issues such as skips, jumps or annoying clicks. There was some occasional light splutters or minor interference in parts but this is due to the original live recording rather than this copy which is very clean as mentioned. Overall I enjoyed each of the four sides and they all played nicely with no serious issues to report.
The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has only minor wear to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are no splits, tears or scuffs anywhere and overall it is strong all round. It has no serious creasing or major ring marks evident but it does have a few light areas of creasing. There is also age related grubbiness or mild age spots in parts. These can be seen faintly inside the gatefold and also around the top area on the rear. Overall a solid sleeve with no major wear but the age spots and light grubbiness as mentioned. There is also an old record shop sticker to the rear top right corner area. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible to its condition.
It contains both its original plain white inners which are in excellent condition. They are strong with no splits, tears or pen marks but have got a stamp from an old record shop on them.
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.
