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 excellent+ condition. It does have some faint spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres show little to no wear and overall the black and white labels are in superb condition with just the faint spindle marks to report.  

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a stunning lustre and are very clean with just a couple of thin, very light minor lines visible when angled in normal light. These are incredibly minor and overall the record is in great shape all round. These few light lines and a few more extremely minor wispy lines show under bright light however, but again of course nothing serious. The record is in great shape with no nasty scuffs, serious marks or blemishes. It is lays flat and has the most beautiful vivid lustre. 

I play tested the record and it plays very well with of course no major issues such as skips, sticks or clicks. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is very enjoyable on both sides. The opening track is incredibly mellow and faint and so there is the slightest trace of surface noise in parts of this. This is more just the sound of vinyl that surface noise caused by scratches and it is not at a disruptive level at all. Any audio with any volume to it is crisp, clear and sounds fantastic. There are no major issues at all and the audio on a whole is stunning. It just has this minimal trace of surface noise in the near silent or incredibly quiet parts.

The gatefold sleeve is in very good condition. It has only a very minor amount of wear and rubbing to the edges and corners, with the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are of course no splits or weak areas anywhere and overall the sleeve is rock solid all round. It has no tears or pen marks anywhere but there is some light grubbiness or discolouring to both the front and back. This is not severe but there are few light grubby marks and also a part ring mark showing on the rear. Its main issue is that it has two sticker removal glue marks. There is one on each side and they are clearly noticeable. I think they have been placed on two of the 'offensive' parts of the sleeve at some point and then subsequently removed, leaving these glue residue marks. Other than these two glue residue marks and the light grubbiness there is nothing major to mention and inside the gatefold is clean, bright and free of any serious issues. I have tried to capture the sleeves condition as best I can in the pictures provided so please study these to gain as much information as possible.

It includes a plain white inner in excellent- condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some mild creasing and minor yellowing in places.

There is no booklet included unfortunately as this has gone missing at some point.

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.
