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 purchased.
This record is in excellent+ condition. It has just a few spindle marks visible on the labels and no pen marks, scuffs or staining. There is next to no wear around the centre holes and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are nice and clean with nothing at all serious showing. There is just a few very faint wispy lines evident in normal light and nothing remotely sinister. There is also a small blemish in the last track of side 2. Overall a nice tidy piece of vinyl with just slight signs of use and the small blemish as mentioned.
I play tested the record and it played nicely throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent with no serious issues such as skips, sticks or tics. The blemish mentioned above has no noticeable affect on play and overall the clarity of the audio on side 2 was really good. Side 1 is similar but for the odd light amount of surface noise in places(run in, intro track 1 and a little in some of the much quieter passages). None of this was at all severe however and overall it plays very nicely and was a thoroughly enjoyable listen.
The sleeve is in excellent+ condition. It has just a small amount of rubbing or slight wear to parts of the edges and corners with the writing on the spine all legible. The sleeve solid and there are no tears, scuffs or pen marks. There is just a few minor creases and no serious ring marks or grubbiness. It has its original sticker present to the front and overall shows just light signs of age. I have tried my best to explain the sleeves condition but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.
It contains its original lyric inner which is in excellent- condition. It has no splits, tears or pen marks but does some creasing(see pics). The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.
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 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.
