Gentle Giant LP Three Friends Columbia (1st U.S. Pressing 1972).

All of our records are based on the Goldmine Grading System.  We will also be grading the media (vinyl) andsleeve (jacket) separately.  The gradesare:

Mint (M) =Still in original shrink wrap

Near Mint (NM) =Should look like it was purchased that day. The album picture sleeve is withoutfades, cracks or any other flaws.

Very Good Plus (VG+) or Excellent (E) = This is the category that most well taken care of recordsfit into.  You can expect a few minorsigns of wear. Light but visible scratches or marks that DO NOT affectplayback.  These albums can also havesigns of minor warping, again, as long as the playback is not affected.

Very Good (VG) = The same as VG+ except for more so. Heavier scratches,signs of major handling…simply put, more flaws. However, collectors on a budget may find these appealing as the flawsmay only be perceptible on very high end gear. The sleeves will show definitesigns of corner imperfections, split sleeve, very visible ring wear, etc.

Good (G) also containing subgrades of Good Plus (G+) and Very Goodminus (VG-) = These are typically very used records with marring andvisible scratches.  Again, however, thesemay still play ok especially using with low to mid-grade gear.  Obviously (literally) there will be quite afew defects but the playback may still be very good. Again, very desirable forthe collector on a budget.

Fair and Poor (Fand P)= May cause damage to the needle therefore we do not deal with records in theseconditions.  Garage sales are a goodsource for these records and heck, you may get lucky!

All of our records are cleaned using a 3step process: 1)Hand cleaned with microfiber cloth. 2) Manual machine cleaned and finally; 3) Ultrasonically cleaned for the bestlistening experience possible!
