Please read the grades below so you know what you are bidding on.

The following grades are considered desirable and collectible. Anything below them would have to be extremely rare to be considered so. Prices are adjusted down, accordingly.

Factory Sealed /SS: Still in shrink wrap.Assumed to be in NM or MT condition,but not always necessarily so.

Mint /MT: I do not use this,only because it would be conjecture based on the eye of the beholder.

Near Mint /NM: Looks and sounds like a new record.They may have slight minimal imperfections such as insignificant tiny marks: a hairline,sleeve wisp or a tiny scuff.

VG++: If NM was a 9.5 than this is a 9.0 Too good to be a VG+.

Very Good Plus /VG+: This will have signs of being handled through normal use.It will usually still retain a good gloss. Light surface scratches or hairlines, Light scuff(s).Minimal wear to label including writing (WOL) or Sticker (SOL)or tear (TOL).May have a slight non-threatening edge warp.The audio quality will be near to NM, possible light noise which will not compete with vocals or music.

Very Good /VG: This is a pronounced version of the VG+ grade. This grade may or may not be compounded by multiple issues as described in a VG+ grade. Their will be Surface wear and/or some surface or background noise.Maybe label wear, SOL. or WOL. Edge chip or warping which does not affect play. An in-expensive alternative to NM

I do not sell GD+, Gd, Poor or Fair graded records unless they are rare.

If you are interested in these grades I have many (Beatles, Elvis, Stones plus others) at very low prices.
