Discount for Local Pickup in Chicago

You are buying this collection WHOLESALE.  That means you get a good $$ /per record cost--but that also means that there may be records that you won't want (due to condition or otherwise).  That is part of it. 

Gradings of records range.

-     On average, this lot should average vinyl around VG (some better, some worse).  There are NM and VG+ records in this collection and some rough ones.

- These have not been play-tested.  You may find a record that looks great, but has a warp or some other defect that makes it unplayable.  

- Some cleaning / dust-wiping will be required for best playback

- No mildew or bad water damage noticed.  Anything that looked nasty was thrown away.

 

Records:

-     Visually: You will find fingerprints, dust, dirt, scuffs and scratches (tried to note most as b-grade), slight warps, names and stickers on labels.  

-     Audibly: There will be pops, clicks, noise and skips.  

Sleeves:

-  Some worn, others are very clean in shrink w/ hype stickers.  SEE PICS

-  There might be some with light staining or water damage.  I called those out in the listings below

 Shipping:

-     FREE

-     NO International shipping.  

-     All records will come with inner sleeves > shrink wrapped > packed tightly > New heavy duty boxes (I encourage you to re-use / recycle all of this!!)

 

THERE WILL BE NO RETURNS ON THIS AUCTION. Please keep this in mind while bidding. 

-  Will not break up lot.

-  Please ask questions prior to bidding.  Can provide more pictures as needed.

   -  Please only bid if you know what you are buying.
