Detailed Descriptions

The Sleeve: VG- Has a very small tear to the front just smaller than 1cm and a few creases to the front. There is a liquid stain to the rear but generally is quite clean and white. The spine is clearly readable Overall the sleeve is nice example and in better condition than most which hard to find in any condition.

Inner Sleeve: G+ Has seam splits to both sides (8cm & 9cm) but no tears or rips otherwise the sleeve is very clean and has no staining.

 The Labels: EX+ A little wear around the spindle area on both sides

 Record Visually Graded: VG- Has 2 light scratches to side 1 (which can't be felt) and some scuff marks to side 2 sounds bad but actually is a very nice copy still has a nice shine and hard to find in nice condition as this. There are 2 small scratches that can be felt on side 2 track "There Is A Place".

 Record Playback: EX Really strong sound. The 2 small scratches on side 2 track "There Is A Place" i struggled to hear them which are hardly noticeable and i mean hardly noticeable doesn’t effect the song or playback that would be the only fault if any no skipping or jumping otherwise the record plays superb throughout with hardly surface noise.

Please note that the record has been professionally cleaned on a record cleaning machine with a non alcohol cleaning solution

I use the following grading system:

M=Mint: The record/sleeve is brand new condition. Just like when first pressed and the record will have no deterioration in sound quality. All items including lyric sheet poster etc are in perfect condition.

NM=Near Mint: The record or sleeve may just marginally be off new condition and have the odd minor flaw.

EX=Excellent: The record shows signs of being played, but there is hardly any lessening in sound quality. The cover might show signs of wear.

 VG=Very Good: The record has been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality. Despite the odd occasional surface marks and the odd light scratch. The cover will shows signs of usage without any major defects.

 G= Good: The record has been played numerous times and the sound quality has deteriorated and plays with distortion. The cover will have seam splits, scuffing of edges, discolouration and creases/ing.

 F=Fair: The record has not been cared for properly and has loud surface noise but is still just playable. The sleeve will be torn, stained/defaced. 

P=Poor: The record will not play properly due scratches and will have bad surface noise. The cover will be damaged and even have parts missing.

 B=Bad: The record is unplayable possibly broken, which would only be considered as a collection filler.

I use a plus and minus signs +/-  to show if marginally better or worse condition.

Postage: UK/Europe = £8.15 Rest Of The World = £8.75

The item will be sent recorded delivery i usually dispatch within 3 working days (post offices are closed at weekends in Cyprus). I never send out any parcel I wouldn't be happy to receive myself! All records are removed from their sleeves and placed in a new plastic sealable sleeve for posting! I use cruciform mailers which are very strong.

The item description is very detailed and I have listed the item to the best of my knowledge. Any Questions please ask.
