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 just a couple of light spindle marks visible on each labels 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 the odd very light thin wispy line just visible when angled but nothing at all major as I say. 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 really well. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent throughout. Its crisp, defined and very clear with little interference audible and no serious issues. There is a touch of surface noise in the run in and very occasionally a minor amount between some songs but the vast majority is 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.

The sleeve is in near mint condition. It has only very slight wear or rubbing to the edges(bottom edge only really) and corners, and the writing along the spine is 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 pen marks 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.  There is maybe the slightest touch of age related discolouring to the white areas on the rear but this is very minor and overall it is in great shape for 41 years old. I have tried to capture the sleeves issues as best I can in the pictures provided so please study these to gain as much information as possible.

It includes its original yellow lyrics inner in near mint condition with no splits, tears or pen marks and next to no ring marks showing. There is one faint crease on one side however and two incredibly minor faint grubby finger marks on the other, but both these issues are very minor and overall it is in great 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.
