Vinyl Grading and Methodology
It’s difficult to hold to a strict Goldmine standard on eBay because people think a VG+ isn’t going to sound good. Of course this isn’t true of that standard strictly applied.
I don’t think the Goldmine system allows for enough variation so I am using my own system.
All vinyl has been vacuum cleaned on a VPi 16.5
All vinyl has been play graded unless noted.
This is for the vinyl only
(New) Still in shrink and unopened
(NM/Mint-) Opened but looks new
(Ex+) Some surface markings that do not effect play. Markings from the sleeve, etc.
(Ex) Essentially similar to the previous however a bit more numerous markings, perhaps some intermittent vinyl noise but below the threshold of the music. There is little to no impact on the experience.
(VG+) This is where we enter some more sustained surface noise, but mild. There can be some clicks and even maybe a pop. The vinyl is still very enjoyable but it’s got some wear.
(VG) The vinyl has some sustained surface noise and it is more pronounced. Vinyl can still be enjoyable at this level but it’s going to have more imperfections. No skips or jumps of any kind, however.
(VG-) There could be a skip or a jump. They will be noted if I actually sell anything at this level.
Returns
When purchasing you are agreeing to my grading system, not your own. So if VG+ means something different I certainly understand, however, don’t purchase expecting your VG+ to equal mine.
Do not attempt to get me to give you a partial refund after the purchase and delivery of item for any reason whatsoever.
Returns up to 14 days are accepted and refunds are given, however, the product must arrive in the condition I sent it.
I want you to be satisfied and I don’t wish to have negative feedback so I will ensure a money back guarantee.
