I CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 200 QUALITY CLASSICAL LPS UP FOR AUCTION
PLEASE CHECK MY OTHER LISTINGS!
Having moved cross country to a new home, I am currently downsizing a 8,000 LP collection (67% classical, the rest jazz, folk, and audiophile) acquired over 35 years of active searching, listening, and upgrading. I am not a dealer...these recordings-including promo items from my days as a part time reviewer-are from my personal collection, and generally represent the best version of each title I have encountered.

Because of the number of records involved, I can only grade discs and jackets visually. I grade conservatively but realistically: the highest grade I will give an unsealed disc whose surfaces are pristine and unmarked is NM. As many vintage LPs fall between NM and VG+ on the Goldmine scale, I us a NM- grade to indicate a disc with very minor visible evidence of use (usually common conditions such as inner sleeve contact spotting a minor scuff or light scratch ) that should not seriously interfere with audition and may well be inaudible. A VG+ disc will have visible surface wear (a scratch, scuff, or sleeve-grit mark that I expect would be intrusively audible) but should play through without skipping. I will only list VG+ and lower records when the titles are rare and in great demand.

Similarly, ratings for jacket condition are for overall appearance, with typical problems like seam splits, shelfwear, and WOBC (writing on back cover) noted separately.

If requested, I will clean records on my VPI 16.5 prior to shipping for an additional $1/disc. I can also repair seam splits from within the jacket for $3. I ship single records in sleeve, out of jacket (to minimize seam splits) in proper LP mailers. Boxed sets are shipped with records inside. Contact me if additional information is needed.

Please check my other auctions, as I will combine multiple purchases to minimize shipping costs.

Happy Bidding! Payment is due within 10 days of auction close. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: First Class International available up to 4 lb; over 4 lb must go Priority Mail. Note: Tracking not available with First Class, only Priority. Do not trust the eBay shipping robot quote if you purchase multiple items - wait for seller to send accurate invoice.
