John Fahey – Volume 6 / Days Have Gone By - 1967 Takoma C-1014 MONO LP
Vinyl Record - Very Good - cleaned, flat, shiny.  Nice copy, with some surface noise.
***NOTE: I GRADE VINYL CONSERVATIVELY.  EVERY used record (and lots of new ones) on the planet has some surface noise, especially at the beginning of the first track on each side; my ratings reflect that fact of life.  NOTE:  I test each LP.  I play the first track on each side (where the needle does the most damage over time) and then test any visible rub marks and/or scratches.  You may notice the same marks.The only time I rate a vinyl record as EX (Excellent) is if I bought it new and did not play it; otherwise, the VG+ (Very Good+) rating is the best score I can give to pre-owned vinyl.**

Record Jacket - Poor/Worn - cleaned, flat, shiny.  See the photos.  Just needs tape.

*All records which I sell that are not in 'New' condition are by definition Used, a.k.a. Pre-Owned, usually by me.  In all cases the vinyl will show some wear and tear; many of these LP's are decades old after all.  There will be scratches and marks, pops and clicks of all kinds.  That goes for the sleeves as well.  Context is everything.  If I have determined the records skip or that they otherwise might cause annoying moments for you, I'll point that out.  In most cases, I just won't list them for sale.  Those offenders go off to the local record store. ;-)  

 

All Pre-Owned LP's have been carefully cleaned.  The result is consistently shiny, clean vinyl.  Not perfectly clean; record grooves are nasty things and will always retain some grit, no matter how well they are cleaned.  Surface noise should not be annoying.  I also clean the record sleeves as mush as possible without damaging the surfaces.

 

Note:  photos of the vinyl record are to display the label only, not to show the record’s condition.

 

I really don’t want returns, but I will always work with you if you are not satisfied.

 

Enjoy the Music.  Thanks!
