You are bidding on an LP.  Budgie 'Squawk', very good/excellent condition cover and vinyl (see notes below).  The item will be well packaged in a record mailer with 2 stiffeners (the vinyl removed and placed in a white paper sleeve to prevent seam splits) and sent immediately upon payment.  First Class postage in the UK, 'Standard International' to other destinations (see below).  I have tried to be as honest as I can about its condition but if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Please read all the descriptions and P&P charges before bidding.

This is the original release of Budgie's second album Squawk on the blue and black MCA label.

Vinyl notes:
I have played this album back in it's entirety at a reasonably loud volume on a pair of high end Sennheiser headphones to evaluate its condition.

A-side:
Excellent condition
Light marking from natural usage/sleeve removal
Some very light crackling

B-side:
Very good condition
Light marking from natural usage/sleeve removal
Some very light crackling
Scratch on track one (about 8 clicks)

In general the vinyl is in very good/excellent condition.  It looks very clean with minimal light surface marks.  Some very light crackling.  Scratch on track one, side two (I have played the scratched area 9 - 10 times and 1 -2 times it has jumped on the scratch).

I tend to be over critical of a records condition as it is not my intention to misrepresent what I am selling.  I want the buyer to feel what they have bought is as described although not everyones opinion of its condition will be the same as mine.

If you have any doubts or questions about this record, please ask me and I will try to be as helpful as I can.

About my auctions:
I have always been fanatical about music, so nearly all of my items for auction were bought on original release dates.  The records have always been treated with respect so in most cases they should playback without hardly any, if any audible surface noise.  If the starting price seems a bit excessive to some people its because I am reluctantly selling my vinyl, so if they are to be sold hopefully they are going to genuine fans of the music who will appreciate what they have bought (see my feedback).

About my P&P charges:
Believe it or not, I don't make any extra money on the delivery charges and in some cases I have even had to pay extra to send packages.  I buy decent record mailers and like to send everything by the safest postal service I can.  I send items how I would expect to receive them myself.
