All records from my personal collection, shelved properly and with care.

 

***All pictures from the *actual* record you will receive.***

 

All opened records have been visually graded, unless otherwise noted. Play-graded records are played on a year old, clean Fluance RT81, with an Ortofon Red 2m cart, with Edifier powered speakers. Because all setups and needles are different, play-graded records will usually have a border-grading, as in VG+/NM, indicating possible variation.

Grading:

 

***If there's any questions in regards to grading, please feel free to message me before making a purchase***

 

(M)int: If a record is unopened, the vinyl is presumed Mint. I will *never* grade a sleeve mint.

 

(N)ear (M)int: Unplayed, or barely played with zero issues, but opened records I will usually grade NM. Generally, any older record (pre-2000s) that I bought used will not make the NM cut, though I may comment that a record plays "VG+/NM," indicating it plays essentially perfectly. Sleeve wise, the NM threshold is *a bit* lower, so a *slight* corner bump, or exceptionally-light shelf wear may get a NM grading, assuming there's no other wear.

 

(V)ery (G)ood / (V)ery (G)ood (+): Generally, a used record that has been played but well cared for, that has zero skips or significant pops, but perhaps occasional background noise or fuzz, will fall somewhere in the VG / VG+ range. For example, a record that visually looks good, with no significant blemishes that will affect play, might be graded VG+. But one that is similar, but perhaps has a bit of heavier background noise if play-graded, or there's one or two blips that are noticeable (but otherwise plays very well), might get VG. The majority of the older (again, pre-2000s) records I own fall within this range.

 

Because there's some leeway here, if the record is play-graded, it's given two gradings, like "VG/VG+." This indicates the record plays more towards "VG" than "VG+." If it is graded "strong VG+," that indicates it is essentially a paradigm case for that grading. If it's "VG+/NM," that indicates it's more towards "NM" than "VG+," and so on.

 

(G)ood (+): As above, but with a bit more wear one way or another, but still no skips, heavy blips, etc., or maybe one on an otherwise essentially perfect record. Still plays like a record should.

 

I generally do not sell (or buy, honestly) records that play or look below G/+, unless otherwise noted.

 

 

***All older records (usually, pre-2000s), unless otherwise noted, or ones that have been played multiple times, have been hand-cleaned by me and rehoused in plain white sleeves. If the original sleeve was anything other than generic (such as a lyric sleeve, advertisement, etc.), it will be kept and included, unless otherwise noted.***

 

All records will be shipped outside of the sleeve, but within an outer plastic sleeve, securely in record mailers. Have confidence your record will be well packed!
