LP GRADING

All of the LPs I sell are from my personal collection. Vinyl is play graded on sound, not looks. Visible marks will be noted.  If not sealed, I have played and enjoyed the album. If you are an experienced record collector, I'm sure you will be pleased with my LP's and grading system (please see the 8000+ positive feedbacks from buyers I have received).

M- = Mint Minus. Plays quietly. Either a nearly new recently manufactured LP, or an older LP in excellent condition for its age. Older LP's (30-50 years old) rated M- may have an occasional tick or groove noise.

VG++ = Record may have surface noise or ticks here and there. Many rare/collector LP receive this rating.

VG+ = Some noticeable surface noise, but not so much that record is not enjoyable.

VG = Definitely some major noise or other imperfections, but worth it because the record is so rare.

COVER GRADING

M- = Recent albums still look new, and older collector's albums look nearly new..accounting for some small fading or loss of cover gloss. I post pictures of all the albums I'm selling so you can see for yourself.

VG++ = Still looks good,but used. Minor imperfections will be noted in listing.

VG+ = Some strong wear. Possibly seam splits and/or taped seams.

VG= Beaten senseless
