About Me    (please read all provided disclaimers)

I'm a collector based in Texas. My collection is built around Rock, Folk, Blues, R&B, Soul and Pop.  I bought my collection from brick & motar Indie record stores, from garage and estate sales, and the occasional liquidation auction.

My records are well maintained. I make it a habit to not buy below VG+ grade unless it is music I really like or the record is valuable even below VG+ grade.

After all these years, I've decided to part with my entire collection on ebay and make a little cash in the process. I don't expect to make a fortune from my collection but I don't expect to become a pauper either.

I am willing to negotiate pricing on the fixed price items if the offer is reasonable.

Grading Standards

I DO NOT GRADE SOUND! 

HOWEVER, I DO PLAYTEST ALL MY LISTINGS USING A $1000.00 MC CARTRIDGE AND I PROVIDE A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE SOUND OF EACH RECORD AS PART OF THE LISTING. IF YOU HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PLAYBACK OF ONE OF MY LISTINGS DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK. 

I DO NOT GRADE SOUND BECAUSE SOUND IS HUGELY AFFECTED BY LISTENING EQUIPMENT

All grading is based on visual inspection of each item under light.  The grades are as follows in a descending order: M, NM, EX, VG+(occasionally VG, G+). GRADING RECORDS INVOLVES SUBJECTIVITY. IF YOU SHOULD FIND THAT YOU (SUBJECTIVELY) DO NOT AGREE WITH MY GRADE FOR AN ITEM, IT IS STILL YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY RETURN SHIPPING

BEWARE, I do not have any perfect vinyl in my collection and I do not make any promise of perfection even with mint vinyl. ALL VINYLS HAVE FLAWS AND IF THIS IS NEWS TO YOU THEN YOU HAVEN'T BEEN COLLECTING FOR LONG.

RECORD CLEANING

I will only clean records when it is necessary. Most of the records in my collection require a good once over with an anti-static brush. In cases when I have to clean I use mostly distilled water and very little surfactant solution. In my experience too much use of surfactant solutions in record cleaning introduces electrical charge.

All domestic shipping is $4 via USPS media mail. 

If you want expedited shipping, request an expedited shipping invoice before paying.

All international shipping is handled by ebay global shipping. 

I AM NOT IN CONTROL OF ITEMS IN TRANSIT. IF AN ITEM IS DAMAGED DURING SHIPPING BECAUSE OF IMPROPER HANDLING PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP
