PLEASE READ MY DETAILED RECORD/SLEEVE GRADING DESCRIPTIONS AND SHIPPING/TRANSIT TIME DETAILS BELOW. _____________________________________________________________________________________ 

All records are visually graded unless noted in description. Some records may play better or worse than visual appearance. When asked, I do my best to grade records per their audio performance, but realize that some collectors with high end set ups may have a different listening experience from mine. I will do whatever I can to be as accurate in my performance grading as my equipment allows me to.  _____________________________________________________________________________________

RECORD GRADES _____________________________________________________________________________________   

NM (NEAR MINT)   This is the highest grade that I will assign to opened/handled records. The record is virtually flawless. A very minor, barely visible sleeve scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches. The record should play with no audible noise. The labels are bright, clean and unmarked.

EX (EXCELLENT)   Record may have a couple very minor surface hairlines and/or sleeve scuffs, but nothing that is obvious or affects the sound quality. Record is bright/shiny and labels are clean/unmarked.

VG+ (VERY GOOD PLUS)   Record may have light surface hairlines and/or surface sleeve scuffs that have minimal impact on the sound quality. Record will still have good luster. Labels may have small stickers and/or written initials.

VG (VERY GOOD)   Record may have numerous noticeable hairlines and/or sleeve scuffs that cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. There may be a few hairline scratches you can feel. There will be no skips. Record may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, stickers and/or writing.

G (GOOD)   Record may have several, but not all of the following flaws: well-played, dull, grayish vinyl with deeper scratches and wear causing noticeable surface noise (hisses, pops, and clicks). The record will have no cracks and no major warps. Labels may be significantly defaced or damaged.
