 All of the grading is done by visual inspection.  Discount auction lots are shipped with vinyl inside jackets and sleeves.   If extra care is desired please purchase a VPI cleaning for each record.  Please remember that your listening experience will vary tremendously if you use a top notch player versus a budget player.  Also all records should be cleaned prior to use.   Some records may in need of a good bath! Some records may not have inner sleeves.  I want for you to be happy with your purchase so if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send me a message  BEFORE bidding/purchasing.

 As I ship media mail your purchase is not insured.  I use industry standard methods to ship.  Should you desire insurance please upgrade to priority mail.

I do not Combine Auctions for savings on shipping.  I *may* if space allows discount shipping on additional single lps with a lot. Please ask. 

I now offer VPI service on Vinyl purchased from me for $2 per vinyl.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/263713675444
