 What you're looking at: AMAZING Coltrane! This album swings, and is classic Coltrane. DG, RVG copy also with a Bergenfield, yellow fireworks label! Most certainly an original, and in beautiful condition! I found perhaps 2-3 light marks. Great gloss and plays fantastic. The album is in very solid, beautiful shape as well. Don't miss this copy, it really is a good one.

How it stacks up:

RECORD: Very solid VG+ (8.7 of 10) Solid player! I almost gave this a VG++ but I found 2 small needle drop marks on side A. Other than that, it's amazing. High gloss, plays as it should with no interruptions and is solid.

SLEEVE: Very solid VG+ (8.5 of 10) Fantastic gloss! One small tear on side on the back, but no splits, and it's solid. Art looks great and just some solid wear. Not perfect, but damn good.

ATTENTION: I am now pleased to say that all records are vacuum cleaned prior to shipping!!


MY GRADING SCALE:

OK, my goal is to be as specific as I can without being too wordy. I give one of these (from worst to best): G, VG-, VG, VG+, VG++. That's it. No more letters, thus VG++ is an amazing record. 

NM, and M, do NOT exist in this grading scale.

AFTER THE GENERAL GRADING SCALE, I have a number, which is meant to be more specific. I find that a number is more specific than a general opinion. This is meant to give you a more-specific idea of what you are getting into audio-quality wise.

- I play with a customized Thorens TD 165 with a Denon 103 MM cartridge (YEAH!!) through Polk Speakers and a Pioneer receiver.

RETURNS: I do offer a TWO week grace period for returns (that means the buyer pays shipping to me). I give plenty of chances to see what you’re buying (audio clips if you wish, emails, two part grading system and a full policy description) and, as I see it, the buyer has as much responsibility as the seller to a) know what they are buying and b) have the decency to ask prior to purchase.

US COMBINED SHIPPING: I charge a flat rate of $4 for one record, which covers postage, plastic sleeves, replacement inserts, shipping boxes, etc … If you purchase more, it is $1 extra for each record.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I do ship overseas, but CHECK THE QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING!!

I hope this answers all questions and concerns; however, if it doesn’t, EMAIL ME. Cheers!
