PLEASE READ THE FINE PRINT BEFORE BIDDING:

GRADING: All vinyl is graded visually - I just don't have time to play all my discs before putting them up for auction however I will try to be tough on the grading, as I would prefer that a buyer was happily surprised, in stead of unhappily disappointed.  

NM = Mint. No such thing really, unless its still sealed. Brand new, unplayed. 
EX- = Excellent. Looks almost new. Possibly has one to two minors faults, and some evidence of having been played, with no audible defect.
VG+ = Very Good Plus. Has light scuffs and scratches but mostly inaudible. possibly can hear a bit of noise in quiet parts. Records with slight surface noise and/or scuffs fall into this category.
VG = Very Good. Has a bit more wear and tear, surface noise a bit more apparent, but still very listenable. Records in this category have more significant damage or wear.
VG- = More, distracting surface noise. Quite audible but good for singalongs etc ;-) Only used for rarites that you otherwise may not find.
G+ = Good Plus. Not really good, more like a dustbin lid, used really only for rarities and/or label fillers FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS.
