Hi and thank you for looking at my auctions!  I've been collecting and shipping records for over 30 years!  Selling the majority of my collection to pay some expenses. 

All records are visually graded according to GOLDMINE STANDARDS. I also play grade many. I grade conservatively. All records have been properly stored and kept in pristine condition!  All records are professionally ultrasonically cleaned using Tergikleen solution followed by a bath in distilled water. 

*****Below is my standard visual grading scale***** *Please note that records I also play grade will be labeled as such with grades based off visual and play in those cases.

Vinyl: 

NM or Sealed  (Near Perfect or Perfect Condition)

NM- (Near Perfect, unsealed but shows no signs of use)

EX (Amazing condition, only very minor if any blemishes visible under certain light, nearly flawless. Possibly a couple minor scuffs/hairlines that do not affect playback aside from in silent sections they may be heard)

VG+  ( Plays great, looks great, extremely minor superficial scuffs/hairlines which generally are inaudible or produce very minor background noise. Generally, still considered collector caliber)

VG  (Some wear, some scratches, may have some minor pops, ticks crackle and/or fuzz in playback but not consistent or overpowering of the music - most noticeable in queit areas, no deep scratches, no skipping. Generally speaking, an excellent play copy and acceptable for many collectors, esp for rare/old albums)

VG-  (May have significant lighter surface scratches/scuffing, may affect play throughout, can feel some imperfections, can easily see damage in any light. Some consistent light background noise is possible. Still should not have skips or deep scratches and still a solid play copy!)

G+/G (Generally, the lowest grade I'll sell but probably closer to most other sellers VG- grades. May have a skip or two but still playable. Expect noticeable wear and consistent background noise. These are still good listening copies and extremely affordable. I will NOT sell you a trashed album!!)

Jacket:

NM or Sealed  (Near Perfect or Perfect Condition, hardly used or handled at all)

NM- (Amazing condition, not sealed, only very minor if any blemishes, nearly flawless, well maintained)

EX (Great condition, looks amazing, very minor signs of wear, seams are great, no significant damage)

VG+/VG  (Some signs of wear, may have some  damaged seams but no splits, ring wear, surface wear, and/or other visible marks but still in quite nice condition)

VG-/G+ (Consistent signs of damage and wear,  splitting seams, or writing on jacket, or light water damage)

G/FAIR (Considerable wear or damage, split seams, significant water damage, writing, tears, etc. Not a complete throw away.)

**PAYMENT AND SHIPPING DETAILS - PLEASE READ:

**I will combine shipping and hold records for up to 2 weeks to add.  PLEASE PAY FOR EACH AUCTION WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE!  I will adjust shipping on any additional auctions you'd like to add.  Please allow me to adjust shipping for add-ons before paying for those.  "Buy It Now" listings require immediate payment.  So, if you'd like to combine those to an existing order please pay right away and i will refund shipping differences.  I DO NOT MAKE MONEY ON SHIPPING!  If anything, I take a loss on shipping and packing expenses.  Please ask questions before bidding/buying.

ALL ORDERS PROFESSIONALLY PACKAGED IN CARDBOARD BOX OR RECORD MAILER DEPENDING ON ORDER SIZE.  I have been shipping records for over 20 years!  They will be packed as well as you've seen anywhere! Records are kept outside of cover but inside protective liners to prevent ring wear.

I highly recommend paying the extra few dollars to ship Priority!  Media Mail can be insanely slow and there is NO INSURANCE on media mail.  ****Media Mail is at buyers risk.  USPS does not guarantee Media Mail so there is no recourse for damaged or lost packages.  Priority does include insurance from USPS in case of loss or damage.  I take a loss on Priority shipping in order to offer it as a financially viable option for you!  Please take advantage of this and combined shipping!  I want you to receive them fast and in the same shape as they were sent!!  I want you to be happy with the purchase and enjoy the music!  I do not however, have any control over USPS, so any delays or damages, the customer must deal directly with USPS/shipping service to resolve.  I have zero control once the package is dropped of at post office and have no insider knowledge or leverage with USPS when there are issues on their end. **By bidding/buying you acknowledge this and accept responsibility if Media Mail is the chosen shipping method and any issues arise after package has been shipped.  I assume no liability or responsibility for delays or damages caused by the shipping service providers and these must be dealt with directly between the customer and shipping provider.**  Thank you for understanding!!

I love music and collecting records!  I also love sharing music!  Unfortunately, life has dictated that I thin my collection.  I'm parting with many of these extremely reluctantly.  Please know these have been well cared for and I want them to continue being enjoyed in others collections!  Thanks so much and best of luck with the auctions!
