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.
These records are in very good condition. There are spindle marks on each label but no pen marks, scuffs or severe fading anywhere. The centres show some wear but are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape but with the spindle marks as mentioned.
As for the vinyl itself, all four sides have a nice shine but there is some light scratches, 'sleeve scuffs', lines and surface lines visible on each side. They are all used and do show this but also do not have anything really nasty or deep.
I play tested both the records and they both played well. They lay flat with little to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced on all four sides is
much better than the visual grade of VG. There are no skips, sticks or ticks and overall very little surface noise. There is occasional very minor surface noise in parts but this is rare and very faint. Overall the audio is much better than a VG(visual) grade as I say.
The gatefold sleeve is in very good condition. It has wear and rubbing to the edges and corners but the writing along the spine is still legible. There are no splits or pen marks anywhere but there is a tiny 3mm tear to the rear left edge. Other than this and the edge wear there is also ring marks showing and some creasing in places. There is also a few indentations on both sides and a small area of scuffing near the front bottom edge. Overall not a perfect sleeve but one that is still solid despite its issues. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.
It contains both its original lyric inners. These are in very good+ condition. Both have ring marks and light creasing but neither has splits, tears or pen marks. I will send the records in brand new plain white replacements to ensure no damage/splits occur to the originals during transit.
Also included is the original poster. This is in excellent condition with no major issues but light signs of handling.
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, and 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.
All offers are considered and are more than welcome.
Many thanks for looking.
