NOTE: I’ve decided to sell some of my LP collection. Most albums were bought in the late 1960’s through the early 1980’s, although some are older. I will do the best I can to accurately grade these albums. If you have ANY questions please ask! All vinyl is cleaned and then play graded on an Audia Technica PL120 with a new Shure M97XE cartridge/stylus. I will ship these albums as if I were purchasing them for my own collection, i.e., I will use record mailers, new inner sleeves, outer sleeves, etc ... and I will pack the albums using due diligence. Thank you.
