Tested - Cream Wheels Of Fire 1968 ATCO Records Repressed Live/Studio 2xLP                             
Vinyl Record - Very Good+ - cleaned, flat, shiny.  Nice copy with few surface marks or scratches.
***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 - EX - cleaned, flat, shiny and sturdy.  Shows very little surface and edge wear.

*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 & clicks of some kind.  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.  I really don’t want returns, but I will always work with you if you are not satisfied.  Enjoy the Music.  Thanks!
