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 successful.

This record is in very good+ condition. It has barely any spindle marks visible on the labels(maybe incredibly light?) and no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage. The centres are not loose and overall the labels are in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything serious but do have a few light hairlines visible in normal light. There is nothing serious as I say, with really just one stand out line and couple of light scuffs on side 2. Other than these issues there are a few more incredibly light wispy lines visible under very bright white light, but again nothing really serious, deep or sinister.  

I play tested the record and it plays well. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the audio produced is excellent. Both sides play great with only a trace of interference between tracks and in the run in. The majority of the audio is great with crisp, clear sound and no serious issues such as skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There is only the most minimal amount of surface noise as I say and the light marks mentioned above have no affect. So overall a very nice sounding record which would grade higher than VG+ audibly.

The gatefold sleeve(which has no text on rear) is in very good+ condition. It has some wear to the edges and corners(pics), and the writing along the spine is no longer legible. Despite this edge wear which is mainly on the spine, all the edges remain solid and there are no splits or weak areas. Other than the edge wear the sleeve is clean, bright, strong all round and has no tears anywhere. There is however 2 'spiral' pen marks and a scuff on the rear. The spirals can clearly be seen, one on the front and one on the back. The scuff is also on the back in the top right corner. Inside the gatefold is in great shape with no such issues. Its booklet is firmly in place and has no tears or pen marks anywhere. So overall a strong sleeve with no major issues but these superficial issues as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white inner which is in very good condition. This has some creasing, age related discolouring and splits developing in all three edges. I will therefore supply another sleeve just to prevent any further issues occurring to the original.

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 ensure 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.
