DETAILED CONDITION:

SLEEVE: not in great shape..tape around edges and a tear at the bottom rear…seam splits on side and top edges..rear notes all nice and clear though..look on it as a filler until a spare sleeve turns up!: F

VINYL - SIDE ONE: a lot of surface marks..plays much better than it looks..a little surface crackle in the background which reduces as the side plays,  and the occasional light click …no jumps, skips or distortion and the music is nice and clear: VISUAL G / AUDIO VG+ to EX

VINYL - SIDE TWO: As Side one… a lot surface marks..and a scratch which causes a number of skips on ‘Love Me Do’, thereafter very nice with just a little background crackle!: VISUAL F / AUDIO P (Love me Do) / AUDIO EX- to EX (rest of side)

LABELS: Superb: EX+

I use RC gradings, although I tend to undergrade, so that the buyer is fully satisfied -I only use the term 'Mint' if an item is sealed, So many of my EX+ grades might be considered 'Mint' by many . I also do not believe there is much point in just putting EX/EX or VG+/EX as this can vary hugely between sellers, so I try to put in as detailed description as I can

I have been selling records on the Net and in the real world for many years with top ratings on the likes of GEMM and MUSICSTACK, (As well as here on ebay), so please buy with confidence

When sending, all records and inner sleeves are separated from their main outer sleeves then both placed in poly sleeves , then in thick card, then in bubble wrapped envelopes for the best protection possible
