Description
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL RECORDS , CD's , CASSETTES AND DVD's ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED FROM START TO FINISH INCLUDING ALL SIDES FOR ALL DOUBLE AND TRIPLE ALBUMS AND BOX SETS THANK YOU .
ALL RECORDS ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED ON MY TRUSTY AIWA TURNTABLE AND GOOD QUALITY JVC AMP . THIS DOES ONLY HAVE A STD BASS AND TREBLE CONTROL WHICH I HAVE SET ON A HIGH " TINNY " SETTING . I LIKE TO SET IT LIKE THIS AS IT PICKS UP EVEN THE VERY SLIGHTEST BIT OF NOISE SO I KNOW I CAN DESCRIBE EVERY LP CORRECTLY ETC . I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT PLAYED ON BETTER OR TOP QUALITY SYSTEMS WITH GREATER AND MORE TECHNICAL SOUND CONTROL ETC , THESE RECORDS WILL SOUND A LOT BETTER THAN I HAVE DESCRIBED . I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I OFTEN GIVE RECORDS ANOTHER QUICK PLAY ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF TRACKS ON MY PERSONAL TOP QUALITY PIONEER SYSTEM AND I DO FIND THAT MOST OF ANY NOISES LIKE CRACKLE ETC ARE MUCH MUCH QUIETER , SOME EVEN HARDLY SOUND AT ALL . I TEST EVERY RECORD AND FIND THAT MY AIWA WILL COVER MANY OTHER SIMILAR SET UPS THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE , I DID WANT TO JUST POINT THIS OUT , THANK YOU .
Please note that i do tend to use " Very Good Condition " for most of my records , although none are heavily scratched etc and most will just have some general light surface marks only . The only exception to this is if the record does have scratches and lots of marks etc but is very rare and collectable and will be described in great detail . I never use " Mint " or " Near Mint " unless the record is unopened from it's original shrink wrap and is clearly unplayed . Even with these i am wary because if the record has been stored for years in maybe a damp garage or loft etc and has not been opened , then we can only presume it should be mint because we obviously can't actually see the record . Everyone obviously has their own opinions as to what is very good and excellent , but in my case , i tend to think that most , if not all records do have marks to some degree ( lots even from new ! ) purely because they are vinyl and mark easy and have been used over a considerable amount of time in most cases . This is why i use Very Good most of the times . This is also why i do go into great detail with my descriptions , as the term " Very Good " can be a bit vague . I do use " Excellent Condition " sometimes , but in my case , i would class this as not played very much at all , excellent shine and just a handful of the very lightest and small surface hairline marks only , most only being visible under a light , so you know that when i use excellent , i really do mean excellent . Lots of my records as you can see by my feedback are better than described , more better than very good and closer to near ( if not ) excellent and i do pride myself on this fact , this is why i do use mainly " Very Good " but with very detailed descriptions also of which i will say i can go a little OTT with noise and general condition and can often make a record sound bad when it really isn't , i do just try my best to say how it is , but as i say please do check my feedback and you will see you can bid with confidence , thank you .

X Ray Spex The Day The World Turned Day Glo 7" Orange Vinyl PS . On UK EMI INT 553 . B SIDE: Iama Poseur . The run off is etched A Nick W Mastercut .
COVER: Factory non laminated thin card PS cover still in near excellent overall condition and still generally very nice and clean , i have had to put near excellent purely because a previous owner has written the catalogue number on the inside of the cover which is visible when looking at the cover from the rear , bar this , the cover itself is still in near , if not actually pretty much excellent overall .
FRONT: Very nice and clean overall . A very very few ( two or three ) very very light and very small usual general surface marks in places , but these really are extremely light and small . Just a couple of extremely light and very small soft dent spots in places .The usual but overall very very light ring wear marks and there is just a very very light impression of the outer edge of the record and just a very slightly more visible but still very light impression of the label section of the record , there is no nasty rubbing present on these very light impressions .
SIDE / BOTTOM MAIN EDGES: ( Not Including Corners And Right Next To Corners Please See Corner Description ) . Side edges: Just a very light bit of general age / use related rub wear in places , but this is very light only and mainly on the right hand side edge . Bottom edge: Again just a very light bit of age / use related rub wear present .
TOP OPENING EDGES: There is a cut out on the rear opening edge . There is actually very little signs of use on the front or the rear , being a bit picky , then there is a super tiny white spot mark on the very top edge visible on the front which i have shown in the photos , other than this there really is very little wear at all , the only issue is as i mentioned earlier , a previous owner has written the catalogue number of the record on the inside of the cover which is visible on the rear at the top .
CORNERS: Some usual but very very light and very small bits of rub / dent wear on the corners , virtually all of this is confined to the very tip ends .
REAR: Again in really nice condition . A very very few indeed , very very light and faint general surface marks in places which are really only more visible when held at certain angles to the light , there is one extremely small very light knick on the surface of the card just above the bottom right corner on the flipback , but this as you can see is really very small only .and one darker but small spot mark near the top left corner . Again there are the usual but mostly extremely light ringwear marks , there is hardly any obvious signs of an impression of the outer edge of the record , but there is a bit of an impression of the label section of the record which does show a very light bit of rubbing , but i will say this is only really seen more when held at certain angles to the light and you can catch a very light impression of some of the tiny teeth / grooved lines that run round the outer edges of the labels , but again this is again light only and quite often seen .
Bar the bit of writing on the inside of the cover at the top , this cover really is still in fantastic shape and a really very nice example , certainly one of the better or maybe even up there with the best overall examples . I haven't seen a great deal that were better than this bar the bit of writing as i say .
INNER SLEEVE: I like to put my more collectable PS records into a separate white paper sleeve when i get them , just for a little added protection for the record and the seam edges on the main cover . Obviously this isn't original as it was never issued with one . It is a plain white paper sleeve in very good condition , but i have had to trim the top opening edges down slightly on this paper inner sleeve so it would fit into the main cover . There are just a few crease lines and dents here and there , mainly three crease lines on the one side and a very few very light and very small surface marks in places , there are the usual but light only ringwear marks and a bit of light wear in two or three places round the cut out inner circles .
LABELS: Solid centre paper labels generally in near excellent condition . Very nice and clean overall with just a very very few extremely light and small usual spindle marks . Both labels are writing free . Being a little picky , then there is a tiny bit of the paper missing round the spindle hole on S1 label at approx two o'clock , though this may have just been like this from the time of manufacture and is quite often seen .
RECORD: There is a slight high spot / warp mainly on and just near to the edge of the record which does give off a slight only bit of arm lift , this is quite often seen on coloured vinyls and as is usually the norm this had no affect whatsoever on the play or sound quality at all and as i say it really wasn't overly excessive at all , though obviously needed mentioning . The overall visual grade under normal average household light conditions is a very strong excellent condition with just a very very very few indeed , extremely light and extremely faint hairline surface marks , there are no nasty deep feelable gouges / nasty deep scratches whatsoever , i will say that these very very very few ultra light hairlines are also only really visible when held at certain angles to or under a light . There are also no nasty manufacturers blemishes within the vinyl itself which is quite common on these pieces of coloured vinyl .
AUDIO A SIDE: Silent run in has some usual but very light noise . Plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music with really no noise worthy of note , all i heard was two or three very light pops on the very very brief quieter intro , there was no nasty loud crackle and no nasty loud ticks . Silent run off has some usual but mostly very very light noise and one light tick . Plays and sounds fantastic and the audio tones are still awesome .
AUDIO B SIDE: Silent run in has some usual but very light noise . Again plays beautifully crisp and clear throughout on the music with no real noise worthy of mention , again there were just two or three very light pops on the intro but these really were extremely minimal , there was no nasty crackle and no nasty loud ticks . Silent run off has some usual but very very light noise . Plays and sounds fantastic and the audio tones are still awesome .
There were no jumps etc when tested and it still retains a lovely shine . Any noises tend to be in short bursts only , are over quickly , are not constant and do not spoil any enjoyment . If any noises are more frequent or louder etc , they will be described separately in the above detailed descriptions thank you .
All in all a very nice overall example of this now very collectable item together with super sound , do turn this one up and enjoy . Thank you very much for your time and interest and happy bidding . Please do read the following ref record gradings explained thank you .
Excellent : The record shows some signs of having been played , but there is very little lessening in sound quality , slight warps not affecting play or sound quality are accepted . Please see the descriptions above for the cover condition .
Please note that whilst I haven’t increased my postage charges for quite a while now , this now other recent price increase , has seen me unfortunately have to put a slight increase on my postage charges . This is also topped with the rise in cost for quality card mailers , jiffy bags , stiffeners , other packaging materials etc , Ebays 10% extra fee for seller postage costs plus their other fees and Paypal now charging 20p per item sold on Ebay plus their other fees . Please also note that I now send ALL non GF LP’s / 12" singles with a minimum of 3 stiffeners and all 7" singles with a minimum of 2 stiffeners ( more if i think they are needed ) , i never and don't agree with making money from postage and with all the added fees / extra stiffeners etc , most of my records including LP's sell for between £2 and £6 so all of this whilst not sounding a lot , does soon mount up and i actually do lose money on posting records , but I do obviously want to still remain competitive and still offer my usual top quality service , sorry again for this , thank you .
