I try to be conservative in my grading and I try to grade honestly.
See pictures of labels for contents of records.
See Record Grading System below.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I use the Goldmine Records Grading System for grading LPs and 45 RPMs. All methods currently in use for the grading of LPs and 45 RPMs are based in some way on this system.

Near Mint – A nearly perfect record. It probably has been played, but shows no signs of obvious wear.

The LP Cover has no creases, folds, split seams, or other noticeable defects. Cut-outs on such records will be noted.

A 45 RPM or EP sleeve has no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.
