Key Information
Please be advised that all record listings with the 'Key Information' text, including this listing, are Sample Played & Visually Assessed - This means I will have listened to a small sample of the record (Approx 20 - 40 seconds) on each side. Due to the volume of music I have for sale, it is not possible to listen to every record all the way through, therefore when you buy, please be aware that my assessment is based on this audio sample and on a visual assessment, which lead me to overall ratings, one for the record and one for the cover (if applicable) - The overall ratings for this record are below:
F (Fair) – Record is definitely
used and is in barely passable condition, this may not play all the way
through, and it may loop, surface noise which may be elevated above the audio
for the majority of the duration, may have jumps, high possibility of other
non-audio noises, audio is not pleasant to listen to. Labels may have grievous
flaws & scuffs, or may be beyond legible. Record may have some chips to the
outer-dead wax, pock-marks, hairline cracks, there may be very noticeable
blemishes / scuffs / hairlines on the record itself. Sleeve may have very
grievous flaws, which may compromise the sleeve itself. All of these things may
be at the same time. Any record receiving this rating will play below-par and
most would consider as ‘filler’ only.
VG+ (Very Good+) –
Record is used but has been well kept, plays very well, and in nice condition
overall. There may be minor surface noise, minor blemishes / scuffs / hairlines
on record, minor flaws to labels, and there may be some flaws to the sleeve,
but these will not be dramatic, and will be low in number.
