Allrecords for sale are graded using the Goldmine Records grading system. () Recordsare cleaned with a solution of 75% distilled water, 25% alcohol, and a coupledrops of photo-flow and vacuumed (Thanks Wes! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNLGo5K5m_M).

Recordshave the needle dropped on a sample of each track to assure playability andsound quality. I do my best to grade accurately and conservatively.

Recordsare packed separately from sleeves in order to prevent seam splitting. Theplastic used for packing the record is for shipping purposes only, not forstorage.

Iffor any reason the buyer is unsatisfied and finds that a record is inaccuratelygraded, I will be happy to refund the sale and shipping cost.

ThankYou very much for your interest! I hope that I have the good quality recordsyou are looking for.

·                    Mint (M)Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly evenstill sealed. (More on still sealed under "Other Considerations").Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.

·                    Near Mint (NM or M-) Anearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than thisimplying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect.

The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve shouldhave no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear orother signs of slight handling.

An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeablesimilar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should betrue of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like.

Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from anew record store and removed the shrink wrap.

Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anythingthat exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worthsignificantly more than the highest Goldmine book value.

·                    Very Good Plus (VG+)Generally worth 50 percent of the Near Mint value.

A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwisehandled by a previous owner who took good care of it.

Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or verylight scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warpsthat do not affect the sound are "OK".

The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barelynoticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play.

Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turnedup corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wearalso and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating itwas taken out of print and sold at a discount.

In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highlyacceptable.

·                    Very Good (VG)Generally worth 25 percent of Near Mint value. Many of the defects found in aVG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evidentupon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade,but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to benoticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail)that will affect the sound.

Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue)attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, itwill not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three ofthem.

Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as thelowest price. This, not the Near Mint price, should be your guide whendetermining how much a record is worth, as that is the price a dealer willnormally pay you for a Near Mint record.

·                    Good (G), Good Plus (G+)Generally worth 10-15 percent of the Near Mint value. Good does not mean Bad! Arecord in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will playthrough without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise andscratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will bestarting to turn white).

A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on thespine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm theobject.

It is a common item; you'll probably find another copy in better shapeeventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years,and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade.

·                    Poor (P), Fair (F)Generally worth 0-5 percent of the Near Mint price. The record is cracked,badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picturesleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wearand writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves arefully seam split, crinkled, and written upon.

Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in thiscondition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each.
