*** I'm selling my private record collection containing thousands of vinyl. I will be posting more albums/45s each week, starting with common/less valuable pieces and working up to my rarer/cleaner items. I've been selling graded vinyl on ebay for 9 years with 100% feedback.
*Check out my other vinyl items for sale, save me as a seller and read notes at the bottom.
*All records have been cleaned on a V.P.I. MW-1 (Cyclone) wet vacuum machine, play-tested for skips, loops, or overwhelming noise, unless sealed.
* The records have been visually-graded ( following Goldmine Grading System) with a 1OO watt light bulb, and described honestly.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
