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 successful.

This record is in very good- condition. It has lots of spindle marks visible on the labels but no scuffs, pen marks or severe fading anywhere. The centre holes do show some wear but are not overly worn or loose and overall the labels are clean, bright and free of any major problems.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or really nasty but do have lots of light surface lines, marks, scratches and sleeve scuffs visible in normal light. There is nothing deep or sinister however but there are lots of the light surface lines and clear signs of use. All these lines and signs of use clearly show under bright light along with more wispy lines but again there is nothing deep or sinister evident. Despite being clearly well used it still has a decent shine and is free from anything really nasty.

I play tested the record all the way through and it played well overall with enjoyable audio and no serious issues. It lays flat, there is only a hint of movement in the record arm and the sound produced is very enjoyable. It is on the whole clear with only occasional light interference. There is some minor surface noise audible in the run in, between tracks and in the rare very quiet part but this is not horrific and the majority of the audio is good and has little audible. I heard no stand out disruptive clicks on either side, and of course no skips or sticks. There was the occasional faint tick and splutter but nothing prolonged or massively disruptive to the audio. So overall a clearly used record but one that produces an enjoyable sound which is still of good quality and would grade higher audibly.

The sleeve is in good condition. It has considerable wear to the edges and corners(pics), with a 2" split no showing in the centre of the spine. The text along the spine is therefore not legible and the other edges all show different degrees of wear. They are all solid however with no further splits showing. There is no pen marks on the sleeve but there is ring marks, creasing and fading to both sides. The laminated front shows age related grubbiness and the rear has the fading as mentioned. Overall the sleeve is solid enough but has the split to the spine and also a fair amount of wear and tear all round. I have tried to describe it as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains a plain white inner which is strong with no splits but does have slight creasing and mild discolouring. 

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 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.
