Spandau Ballet - Parade LP. Gatefold 12" Vinyl UK 1984 Insert-Rock/Pop/ Ex Con

Condition is expressed as two abbreviations, seperated by a slash. The first refers to the disc and the second to the sleeve. The abbreviations we use are as follows:

M (Mint), EX (Excellent), VG (Very Good), G (Good), F (Fair), B (Bad).

For example: EX/VG indictaes that the record is in Excellent condition and the sleeve in Very Good condition.

Grading Definitions

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.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and the contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

The vast majority of items we list are in Excellent or Very Good condition. We only use the 'Mint' grading for items with no visible flaws at all, so many of our excellent items are in very near mint condition. Occasionally we list rare items in lesser conditions

MINT CONDITION = An LP in ?mint? or M condition is considered to be perfect. It means that it is usually sealed and has never been played.

NR MINT = The record in ?near mint? or NM condition has been played no more than a few times. It appears glossy and has remained on a shelf between other vinyl.

EXCELLENT = It is almost Near Mint, but you can tolerate very slight marks at the point where the record has been in and out of the sleeve. There can be very tiny signs that show a very light use of the vinyl. There is extremely low lessening in terms of audio quality. We can refer to it as EX

VERY GOOD + =The key features here include the following:

Few additional faults are acceptable in VG+
No-fault is accepted that can compromise on the record both audibly and visually
There can be light and inaudible marks
There can be little rub
VERY GOOD= A vinyl that has ?very good? or VG grade means that it has seen some use and is usable.
There can be light clicks and pops
Also, there can be light visible scratches
It may also have an edge split
Record is both audibly and visually used
You can find it interesting to look at and also it is good to listen to
