VINYL GRADING
LP is new and sealed.
Notes on Vinyl Grading
I'm very picky about my vinyl albums, and all the vinyl albums I sell were originally purchased for my personal collection.
Vinyl is play graded on sound, not appearance. My turntable set-up is ClearAudio Solution, Rega tone arm, Hana SH cartridge. Older vinyl albums from 1950-1969, which were much better manufactured than vinyl albums from 1970-1989, may have marks on the surface, yet play quietly. I have always collected vinyl albums for good sound quality, and that is the criteria I use to rate vinyl albums.
Many of the vinyl albums I sell are 40-50 years old. Older vinyl albums rated M- may have an occasional tick or groove noise. If you are an experienced record collector, I'm sure you will be pleased with my LP's and grading system (please see the 6000+ positive feedbacks I have received from buyers).
M- = Mint Minus. Plays quietly. Either a nearly new recently manufactured LP, or an older LP in excellent condition for its age. Older LP's (30-50 years old) rated M- may have an occasional tick or groove noise.
VG++ = Record may have 1 or 2 instance of surface noise.
VG+ = Some noticeable surface noise, but not so much that record is not enjoyable.
VG = Definitely some major noise or other imperfections, but worth it because the record is so rare.
COVER GRADING
M- = Recent albums still look new, and older collector's albums look nearly new..accounting for some small fading or loss of cover gloss. I post pictures of all the albums I'm selling so you can see for yourself.
VG++ = Still looks good, but used. Minor imperfections will be noted in listing.
VG+ = Some strong wear. Possibly seam splits and/or taped seams.
VG= Beaten senseless
I’m happy to answer questions about the LP’s and Covers.
Sometimes (not often) I make a record grading mistake. If that happens, let me know and we’ll work it out through a return & refund.
Regarding pictures of LP's: You may see occasional bright white areas on the LP covers or vinyl, which is the camera flash.
SHIPPING & HANDLING
I'm a collector, so I know how important it is to pack and ship vinyl albums correctly. I ship the vinyl’s in their inner sleeve, outside of the cover, and both within a polybag, to avoid cover seam splits.
