Please see my other listings. I will combine shipping for multiple items to lower shipping cost! Please wait for my invoice!

If separate payment is received for each item before I send an invoice with combined shipping total, then each item will be shipped separately.

I clean each vinyl record and I carefully grade vinyl and covers visually under a bright light. I play test all records I visually grade VG- or below and provide notes with vinyl condition. I presume all records I grade VG or above will track with no skips and will have typical background noise in quiet spots.

I ship LPs securely in a sturdy cardboard record mailer to protect them during shipment.

All records are original pressings unless otherwise noted.

Visual Grading Scale for Vinyl:

M: Still sealed, unopened

NM: No visible flaws on vinyl. Vinyl looks unplayed. I rarely use this grade.

VG++: Only a couple light barely noticeable paper scuffs/superficial hairline marks on vinyl that should not affect play. Vinyl looks barely played and handled carefully.

VG+: A few light noticeable paper scuffs/superficial hairline marks/fingernail marks or light scratches that should not affect play.

VG: A few more widespread noticeable light marks/scuffs/fingernail marks or light scratches on vinyl surface, but marks cannot be felt and there might be some light background noise/light pop in quiet spots.

VG-: I play test any record at this grade. There will be more noticeable light marks and/or light scratches than the other VG grades and some marks might be lightly felt but will NOT cause a skip during playback, along with light background noise in quiet spots/light pop(s). Please see play test notes for details. 

G+, G, G-: I play test any record at any interval of this grade (interval used to signify varying degree of imperfections). Widespread imperfections will be visible on the vinyl under normal light, including scuffs, fingernail marks and scratches. Some marks can be felt but will NOT cause a skip during playback. There likely will be background noise in quiet spots and in places and pops during playback. Please see play test notes for details.

Fair: I play test any record at this grade. Widespread scratching visible on the vinyl surface under normal light (some marks can be felt) but will NOT cause a skip during playback. There will be audible background noise and pops/static throughout playback. Please see play test notes for details.
