Up for auction is a MONSTER 17 LP lot from THE BEATLES!
Many of these have a name written with black marker on the covers - see photos for details. As far as the vinyl - this lot varies in condition, you have to read the grading details below. Several of these are MONO pressings. Most are VG+ and a few are VG, which is on the low end of my grading scale but absolutely NO JUNK! If you can tolerate the names on the covers you'll be OK with this lot. All should be decent players at moderate to high volume levels. I would not recommend this lot for serious collectors who are looking for top copies. I've simply upgraded my copies and these are my leftovers. A fantastic lot for the casual listener...someone who just wants to play the darn things and not put them on a pedestal.
All records are cleaned thoroughly with the SPIN CLEAN Record Washer system and are ready to throw on the turntable.
If you haven't bought from me before, here's 3 quick things you need to know about me as a seller:
$4.00 will ship as many records as you win to ANYWHERE in the USA with a domestic shipping address via USPS Media Mail! Yes, that means if you win 20 records, I still ship for $4.00!
***This is available to INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS, but it will be EXPENSIVE TO SHIP! PLEASE USE THE SHIPPING CALCULATOR BEFORE BIDDING! ALL PACKAGES OVER 4 LBS. ARE REQUIRED TO BE SENT VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL.***

THE FINE PRINT:
Please read the entire auction description before bidding!
Most of my albums (both jackets and discs) show their age and have been visibly used over the years. I have cleaned each and every one of these and give them a visual grade (and will also play grade - time permitting - if they show questionable surface marks). I will try to be as specific as possible with the imperfections in the details below and will note when there is something significant. Most of these will be decent players at higher volume levels so if that's what you're after, go for it. I have a full time job and don't really do this for the money - most of the time the money I make goes right back into more records for my collection. I have 2 young kids and this is called "daddy" time in the basement. I absolutely do NOT want to attempt to rip off anyone...I'm here for the party, man!
*I do not accept returns unless there are extenuating circumstances beyond my control.
*Please ask questions BEFORE you bid.
*All records are CLEANED and VISUALLY GRADED - I do NOT play grade unless noted. Please refer to my grading scale below.
*Please save me as a seller! I am going to unload a TON of records over the next few months.
Overall, anything with a grade of 7/VG+ will show some surface wear and/or needle marks but nothing deep. Anything with that grade will still play fine in my book. Obviously if it's an 8/EX or 9/NrMINT it will be in fantastic condition. Please note the subjective nature of grading; your VG+ might be my VG or my VG+ might be someone else's EX - you just have to pay attention, read my grading scale, and most importantly - ASK QUESTIONS.
HERE'S HOW I GRADE:
10 – MINT (Sealed, perfect condition.)
9 – Nr MINT (Like new with only a hint of wear.)
8 – EX (Very few blemishes. Maybe a couple light scratches on the vinyl or a few light creases to the jacket. Serious collectors will be satisfied with this grade.)
7 – VG+ (Average, used condition. Most of my vinyl and jackets are in this condition. Vinyl will show playwear/scratches, but nothing deep and it will play through fine. You may encounter a "pop" or two or some light background noise.The jacket may have creasing, edgewear, ringwear, or corner dings but nothing significant.)
6 – VG (Vinyl/jacket may will show a fair to moderate amount of wear .Vinyl may show a number of scratches and you will likely experience some background noise during playback, but NO skips. The jacket may show a fair amount of wear in the form of creasing, edgewear, ringwear, writing, seam splits, etc.)
5 – VG- (Rarely will I sell anything of this grade unless it is a collector item with some value. Moderate to heavy wear on the vinyl and/or jacket.)
I WILL DETAIL ANY IMPERFECTIONS TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY IN MY ITEM DESCRIPTION.
