Condition
The sleeve is completely laminated and no laminate is lifting.
There are a few light handling creases in the laminate on the front & rear and the opening edge has some light bumping/rubbing
The record has a number of light marks when inspected under a strong light, but they do not affect the sound quality (I was only occasionally aware of them in-between tracks).
The record has been cleaned on a Loricraft Audio PRC 3 Professional Record Cleaning Machine using L’Art Du Son Record Cleaning Fluid and the record has been placed in a Nagaoka No 102 anti static record sleeve.
The labels have some light spindle marks on each side, but beside that they are near mint with no stains, tears, paper loss or writing.
The inner sleeve has no splits, tears, writing or staining, but does have some very light age related discolouration on the opening edge
The Insert has no creases, tears, writing or staining.

______________________________________________________________________________
The grading standard used is the UK Record Collector magazine gradings as described below
Mint
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent
The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
Very Good
The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Please note
Sorry, but I do not send packages to Central & South America, some East European countries and Africa due to high fraud rates.
Payment Payment is preferred via PAYPAL, but I will also accept payment from UK based buyers via cheque or postal orders, but if you chose to pay via these, you items will not be despatched until after 5 working days when the payment has cleared. Shipping I am offering FREE P&P to UK buyers and as a point of fairness to International Buyers, I have deducted the cost for this from the P&P costs quoted for all non UK buyers. Please be assured, P&P charges are only to cover costs incurred and represent no profit to me. All packages are sent in appropriate secure packaging to ensure the item reaches you in the same condition as it was when despatched. UK packages are sent 2nd class signed for and International packages are sent Airmail/Signed for, which means they are insured and meet EBAY/Paypal requirements for seller/buyer protection. I always aim to dispatch the package either on the day of purchase or the next day, and update the status Ebay either on the day of dispatch or the following day, so that you are fully aware of the progress of dispatched items. Return Policy Returns are accepted in the unlikely event that the item purchased does not match the grading given and it is returned in the condition sent and in packaging comparable to that which it was originally sent in. I respectfully request that before returning, you please contact me and advise me of the situation If there is not a fault but another reason you wish to return it, please contact me and I will do my utmost to resolve the situation, but be advised that I will not reimburse the return postage costs if the item is being returned for any reason other than being faulty or “not as described” unless it has been agreed prior to being returned. About Us I have been a collecting and dealing in records for nearly 30 years and the items on sale are either part of my collection that I no longer require, or have acquired over the years as part of a job lot I purchased. In addition to selling records, I also, from time to time offer for sale other interesting items (movie posters, lobby cards, magazines, books etc) I come across in my search for records and have some knowledge about (movie & music memorabilia, collectable books & magazines etc). I have been buying and selling on Ebay since July 2000, and have a 100% positive feedback rate. I pride myself on giving accurate gradings & descriptions and doing everything I can to ensure that every sale goes smoothly. I believe that collectable items are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them, so all my auctions have a realistic starting/asking price in relation to their rarity and/or condition. 625 (GS 6.9.7 (625))price rating
