Thinning the herd!
EX copy of The Beatles - Abbey Road. Audiophile 1979 MFSL US release of a Japanese pressing. Get a great copy of this audiophile 1979 LP to start or enhance your collection.  The cover is graded EX due to one dinged corner and missing the original shrinkwrap.
All my used vinyl is cleaned with an ultrasonic cleaner and played completely through before listing. I generally don't sell vinyl graded less than VG+. These are out of my personal collection and anything with noise was quickly "waffle-boarded" away to junior collectors to start their collections. The only exception is the rare case the album is collectible but in less than desirable condition. These are priced accordingly. 
Shout out to all the vinyl fanatics out there! It has been a huge blessing to listen to records while grading, great opportunity to truly appreciate the collection I have amassed over the years. That's right I play everything before I list it so these are "Play Graded". I just can't bring myself to sell anything I wouldn't buy on my own.
I will combine shipping for multiple items.
For my obsessive compulsive vinyl brethren out there, deadwax: Matrix / Runout (Side A Stamped (Except A12 Etched)): MFSL1-023-A12 1121 ✽ Matrix / Runout (Side B Stamped (Except B1 Etched)): MFSL1-023 - B1 111 ✣ Matrix / Runout (Sides A & B Etched): SR/2
SEALED: Never opened with original shrink wrap on it.
MINT (M):  New condition...Look like new, no flaws whatsoever. Sound is vibrant and as the mix should be, no surface noise, no pops, no skips on a quality turntable. Cover will look like it has just has been removed or is still in shrink wrap. I like these and will have little to none for sale but if I list something as mint - this would be my standard.
NEAR MINT (NM): Played but not often, no flaws, but a slight amount of the luster may be gone. Sound is vibrant and as the mix should be, no surface noise, no pops, no skips on a quality turntable. Jacket will be virtually flawless, slightest signs of wear, maybe one bumped corner, or a hint of edge wear.
EXCELLENT (EX): This Item may have some marks like -light scratch or light sleeve scuffing, that may sound briefly in a quieter passage.  Sound is great and the mix should be readily famililar, minimal surface noise (generally pickup and runout grooves), no pops, no skips on a quality turntable. The jacket may have the very lightest signs of ring wear , some light corner or edge wear.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+). This record will have some light marks(light scratches and light sleeve scuffs), and it might make an occasional pop or crackle in parts, but never interrupts the listening experience. The jacket starting to show more signs of wear than a EX jacket, the ring wear may be slightly more evident, the edge wear or corner wear may be more defined as well.
VERY GOOD (VG). The record may have scratches and scuffs, though aside from minor pops and crackling, still an enjoyable listen. No skips here. The jacket will have far more wear than the previous grades, such as:  edge wear to the point of some minor seam splitting (the kind that can be repaired with tape or other means), ring wear (not terrible, but still distracting from the image), edge and corner wear, minor writing or a few stickers, or other similar defects.
VERY GOOD MINUS (VG-) : Not terrible, usually represents 1 or 2 "ugly" marks or scratches, might be a little sketchy in a few spots, other than that would fair as a VG record.  The jacket will show wear - ring wear, seam splits (still should be able to be taped up for repair), some writing and/or stickers, edge and corner wear, or other similar defects.
