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 excellent- condition. It has a few faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there is also some mild wear around the centre holes. These are not loose however and there is also no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in good shape with just the light wear to the centres to report really.
As for the vinyl itself, side 1 is really clean and has little visible in normal light. Both sides have a vivid lustre and are clean but there is some scratches on side 2. One of these goes across track 2 and just into track 3 and this can be felt. Other than this thin scratch there is nothing that can be felt, just a few other light lines and mild marks showing. Overall I would grade side 1 as EX+ and side two as VG+, which has given me the EX- overall grading.
I play tested the record and it played very well and sounded great throughout with excellent clarity and minimal surface noise or interference. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is minimal movement in the record arm. The sound produced on side 1 has no issues whatsoever and sounds superb throughout. Side 2is similar but the scratch mentioned in track 2 causes the most faintest possible ticks. These can be heard really faintly in some parts of the track and between tracks 2 and 3 but the vast majority of any ticks are completely masked by the audio as they are so soft. Nevertheless I have graded the album below excellent due to these faint sounds. Overall it plays very well however and produces audio that is still very enjoyable.
The sleeve is in very good+ condition. It has some rubbing to the edges and corners but the writing along the spine is all still clearly legible. There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere and overall the sleeve is solid all round. There is no major creasing but there is some slight ring marks and mild grubbiness in places to both sides. These are pretty minor issues however and overall the sleeve is bright and in tidy shape overall. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.
It includes its original plain white inner which is in very good condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks but does have creasing and discolouring. I will therefore send the record in a brand new plain white replacement.
It includes its original free 7" single. This would grade as EX+ and plays great both sides.
It also contains its original lyrics insert which is in excellent- condition. This has no tears, pen marks or major faults but there is a few creases(corners) and light signs of handling.
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.
