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 near mint condition. It has maybe just one or two very faint spindle marks visible on each label and no pen marks, scuffs or fading anywhere. The centres show little to no wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are in great shape with little to report and no major issues at all.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean and have little visible in normal light and of course nothing remotely serious. There is maybe the odd very light thin wispy line or minor smudge just visible when angled but nothing at all major as I say and overall it is superb. There are a few extremely minor wispy lines visible under very bright white light but again nothing remotely sinister. The record has no nasty scuffs, serious marks or blemishes and has a lovely vivid lustre.
I play tested the record and it plays near perfectly with superb audio throughout. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is fantastic on both sides. Its crisp, defined and very clear with little to no interference audible and no serious issues. There is only the most minor touch of surface noise in the run in and very occasionally between some songs but the vast majority is completely surface noise free and of great quality. There are no skips, sticks or clicks and no pops or any other serious issues. Overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable play test and produced audio of high quality with of course no major issues to report and superb clarity and definition.
The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has only very slight wear or rubbing to the corners, with little to none to the edges and the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are of course no splits or weak areas anywhere and overall the sleeve is in great shape. It has no tears, scuffs or major pen marks(one inside the record housing) anywhere and is clean and bright. There is next to no creasing, barely any ring marks evident and overall it is in great shape all round. 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 its original picture/info inner in excellent- condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some creasing and ring marks showing. There is also some mild age related discolouring or grubbiness in places. This is not severe however and overall it is solid and in good shape.
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.
