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 spindle marks visible on the labels, but no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres are not loose and overall the labels are in good shape.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or serious but do have quite a few extremely light surface lines and marks visible in normal light. These become clearly evident under very bright light along with some other signs of use, but there is again nothing deep, serious or sinister. The record has no really nasty scuffs or blemishes and despite the wear and fairly ugly appearance has a nice gloss.
I play tested the record and it played very well overall. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the audio is free of skips, sticks, loud annoying clicks or any other major issues. It does however some very light clicks audible at the end of track 1(Money) on side 2. These continue through the light sax intro of track 2 and through the softer parts of this track(Us And Them). These are by no means loud really disruptive clicks, but are soft, light ones that can just be heard in the background. This issues is the only 'major' problem to report with the rest of the album sounding great. There is a hint of surface noise in the run in and in some parts but nothing severe at all. The vast majority of the audio is surface noise and problem free, with just the light clicks mentioned to report. So the audio is not pristine due to these and also the record is clearly well used, yet despite this I thouroughly enjoyed the entire play test and would say the audio grades a fair bit higher than VG.
The iconic gatefold sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has only slight wear to the edges and corners(pics), and they are strong with no splits or weak areas anywhere. There are no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere, but there is a hint of fading throughout. There is only very slight ring marks however and little creasing evident. Inside the gatefold is great. Its clean, bright and free of any major issues. Overall the sleeve is clean, bright and strong all round with just the minor edge wear and slight fading to report. I have tried to capture the sleeves condition as best I can in the pictures provided so please study these to get as much information as possible.
It includes its original poly-lined plain white inner which is in very good condition. This has no splits or pen marks but does have considerable creasing, age related discolouring and grubbiness. There is also 2 small minor tears to the central window but overall it is still solid enough.
There are no stickers present and no posters included.
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.
