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 purchased.
This record is in very good condition. It has faint spindle marks on the labels but no pen marks, scuffs or fading. There is no major wear around the centre holes and they are not loose. There is a sticker(previous owner) on the label of side 1 however. Overall the labels are clean and still in good shape but do have the sticker and light spindle marks.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides are free from anything deep or really nasty but there is clear signs of use and age to both sides. There is light scuffs, wispy lines, light scratches and some light groove wear showing on both sides. There is nothing that can be felt but the record is clearly used and has obvious signs of this as I say. There is also a tiny white spot in track 5 on side 1.
I play tested the record and played well overall with no skips, sticks or major tics and was still an enjoyable listen throughout. I has some light surface noise in the run ins and between some tracks but the majority of the audio is surface noise free. Saying this however there is the occasional amount of surface noise in the quieter parts and the odd noise, splutter or pop. The white spot mentioned above causes two light tics and there was also a couple of pops in track 6 on side 2. These issues were brief and pretty minor however and overall it plays solid and would have no major issues to stop it from grading as VG audibly on both sides.
The textured sleeve is in very good condition. It is solid all round with no splits, tears or pen marks but has clear and obvious wear/rubbing to the edges. There are no excessively weak areas but there is clear edge wear. There is also a sticker showing on the front and some mild discolouring/grubbiness to the white areas on the rear. There is no major ring marks or serious creasing but there is slight creasing in places. Overall a solid sleeve but one that has edge wear/rubbing and the sticker as mentioned. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.
It contains its original picture inner which is in very good condition. This has a 2" split to the bottom but no tears, pen marks or heavy creasing. It is generally tidy visually but has the split to the bottom edge as mentioned. I will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no further wear occurs to the original.
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.
