Vinyl Grading Key: 

NM: Like new record. Flawless, with no blemishes.

EX: Has one or two marks such as a very fine scuff or hairline. Very close to NM

VG+: Has a few fine scuffs/hairlines. May have light surface noise in spots and occasional crackles and pops. Overall still very shiny with vibrant sound.

VG: Has many scuffs and/or hairlines which may cause surface noise and/or one or two "finger felt" fine scratches with audible ticks. Original sheen has some visible play wear. 

G: Has very noticeable play wear such as dullness, large scuffs and larger scratches. Noisy overall. Will only list these records if very rare.


We have recently acquired a very large classical vinyl collection, including 2500+ pieces, from a major collector out of NYC. Most of this collection is made up of highly sought after rare pressings including early Decca (ED1), Columbia (Blue/Silver), HMV(Cream/Gold & French pressings), Mercury (Living Presence), RCA (Living Stereo), Deutsche Grammophon, Les Discophiles Francais, Lumen, Pathe', etc.

Due the size of this collection, these records are visually graded only, under a daylight lamp. If any flaws look like they will sound, we will play through that section and note any issues. Downgrading if anything, we will only give a NM grading to a flawless, as new record. All other grades will be described per side. Most records have been professionally cleaned and look very shiny as when new. (see pics)


Approximately 75 records will be listed per week, all starting at 9.99 auction syle, until the collection is gone. Please, check back often to see what pops up! Thanks, M.T.
