ITEM DESCRIPTION:  Bikini Kill LP by Bikini Kill on Kill Rock Stars Records (#KRS-204).  Record is play-graded in EX condition.  Sleeve is in VG+ condition (slight ring-wear visible on back - see pic).  I bought this new in the 90s and played it only a few times.  Their debut EP.  Comes with lyric sheet insert.

CHECK OUT my other auctions, as I will combine shipping for multiple wins.  I will be selling off many rare records from my personal collection over the next few weeks!!  All photos are of the actual item.  Many of the records were bought new by me during the 90s and early 2000's when vinyl was dying off, and all were well cared-for (I generally played each record only a few times and backed it up if I wanted to hear it more).  PLEASE READ MY DESCRIPTIONS CAREFULLY, as I take great care to describe items accurately.  In a few cases I include extra photos to show specific issues with the cover, etc., but in most cases I simply describe them verbally (please let me know if you want more detailed pics or info about anything you notice in the listing).
Many records have been play-graded, though some have been graded visually (listings will indicate which was used, and see below for my system).  I try to grade conservatively, and if I have any doubts I use the lower rating.  If you have ANY issues whatsoever with items after they arrive, please CONTACT ME before leaving feedback and I will work with you to resolve the problem.  Feel free to contact me with any questions before the auction ends!

PLAY GRADING OF RECORD CONDITION:  EX:  Background noise is kept to a very low level and does not interfere with the music.  VG+:  Background noise can be heard clearly during quiet passages, but the record is very listenable overall, and noise is not present during loud passages.  VG:  Clearly audible background noise is present during quiet and medium passages, but the record sounds good during loud passages.  G:  Very noisy throughout, but it is still possible to hear the music.  Note that ratings apply only to background noise (“clicks and pops”).  I check for other defects (skips, warping) and indicate them separately if I notice them.

VISUAL GRADING OF RECORD CONDITION:  SEALED:  Record is still in the original un-opened shrink-wrap and has never been played.  Any severe warping is noted, but mild warps can sometimes not be detected until after opening.  EX:  Record is glossy and looks like it has barely been played, with no obvious scratches or other defects.  VG+:  Record has minor defects such as several light scratches or a large scratch.  VG:  Record has obvious problems such as heavy scratching or a small chip out of the edge, but probably sounds good during loud passages.  G:  Record plays, but with major problems.

GRADING OF COVER CONDITION:  EX:  The cover has no obvious defects.  VG+:  The cover has one or two small problems, such as fading, marks, or light creases.  VG:  There are many small problems or a more serious defect, such as a cut-out, large hole-punch, or seam split.  G:  The cover is seriously damaged, but nearly the whole thing is there and most of it can be read.
