This item will be shipped Media Mail and will also be insured for the amount that it sells for. This item will also require a signature. I will not send this item without a signature (If someone can not sign for the item, you will have to go to the post office and pick it up). If you don't want the signature on the item, you will have to purchase from someone else.


Be sure to ask questions, see all pictures, and are sure that you want this item as I will not accept returns.


Please note that playability and sound quality may vary depending on what turntable, cartridge, receiver and speakers that you use. The marks may or may not cause any skips or pops on your turntable.


The reason this is priced cheap is because of the small marks on disc one and disc two. Make sure that you want this record as I will not accept returns. Again, playability and sound quality may vary with your stereo equipment.


If you are looking for a better copy, you will have to purchase a brand new one for about $250.00.


Please note that my pictures will not show all of the sleeve marks and blemishes.


Pulse (2018 reissue. 4 lp) I've played these disc once except to test the small mark that are on disc one and two. Has shrinkwrap, hype sticker, 52 page book and original inner sleeves. I looked at the book when I first got the album, and then once more a few months ago.

Cover: Vg+. Corners are sharp.

Inner sleeves:Vg+. Have small creases and small dings. Has some finger prints.

Book:Vg+. Has some light wear. I've looked at the book twice. Has some finger prints.

Lp 1: Vg. Has factory blemishes and very light sleeve marks. Has some finger prints and some hairs/fibers on it. There is one small mark you can feel toward the end of "Shine on you crazy diamond". Please see picture 4. The yellow circle shows the mark. The yellow circle does not appear on the record. It does cause some pops and one skip on my turntable (Playability and sound quality may vary with your equipment. It may cause skipping and popping on your turntable, it may play fine). Labels have very small rips near the center. The vinyl has nice gloss.

Lp 2: Vg. Has factory blemishes and very light sleeve marks. Has some finger prints and hair/fibers on it. Towards the end of "Hey you". There is a small mark you can feel. This mark does cause some popping (Playability and sound quality may vary with your turntable. It may cause skipping and popping on your turntable, it may play fine. See picture 7. Labels have some very small rips near the center. The vinyl has nice gloss.

Lp 3: Vg+. Has factory blemishes and light sleeve marks. Speak to me has light sleev marks. Has some finger prints and hairs/fiber on it. The labels have very small tears on it. The vinyl has nice gloss.

Lp 4: Vg+. Has factory blemishes and light sleeve marks. Has some finger prints and hairs/fibers on it. The vinyl has nice gloss.

The records do not have any warps. These records come in Mofi original master recording inner sleeve. The only thing that I can think that casued the damage was some dust or debris getting under the inner sleeve and getting smashed onto the vinyl when I stored it. This had to have happened after I played the records and put them in the inner sleeves. Disc three and four are fine.


Goldmine grading:

MINT (M)

These are absolutely perfect in every way. Often rumored but rarely seen, Mint should never be used as a grade unless more than one person agrees that the record or sleeve truly is in this condition. There is no set percentage of the Near Mint value these can bring; it is best negotiated between buyer and seller.


NEAR MINT (NM OR M-)

A good description of a NM record is “it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.” In other words, it’s nearly perfect. Many dealers won’t use a grade higher than this, implying (perhaps correctly) that no record or sleeve is ever truly perfect.

NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any “spindle marks” from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. Major factory defects also must be absent; a record and label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. (NM records don’t have to be “never played”; a record used on an excellent turntable can remain NM after many plays if the disc is properly cared for.)

NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind.

NOTE: These are high standards, and they are not on a sliding scale. A record or sleeve from the 1950s must meet the same standards as one from the 1990s or 2000s to be Near Mint! It’s estimated that no more than 2 to 4 percent of all records remaining from the 1950s and 1960s are truly Near Mint. This is why they fetch such high prices, even for more common items.

Don’t assume your records are Near Mint. They must meet these standards to qualify!


VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) or EXCELLENT (E)

A good description of a VG+ record is “except for a couple minor things, this would be Near Mint.” Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if it toward the high end of the grade (sometimes called VG++ or E+).

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint.


Very Good (VG)

Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. That said, VG records — which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a NM record — are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because most of the “big money” goes for more perfect copies. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money.

VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise will not overpower the music otherwise.

Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.

VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious, though not overwhelming. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written or it or stamped a price tag on it, too.


Good (G),

Good Plus (G+)

or Very Good Minus (VG–)

These records go for 10 to 15 percent of the Near Mint value, if you are lucky.

Good does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has significant surface noise and groove wear, and the label is worn, with significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. A Good to VG– cover has ring wear to the point of distraction, has seam splits obvious on sight and may have even heavier writing, such as, for example, huge radio station letters written across the front to deter theft.

If the item is common, it’s probably better to pass it up. But if you’ve been seeking it for a long time, get it cheap and look to upgrade.


POOR (P)

and Fair (F)

Poor (P) and Fair (F) records go for 0 to 5 percent of the Near Mint value, if they go at all. More likely, they end up going in the trash. Records are cracked, impossibly warped, or skip and/or repeat when an attempt is made to play them. Covers are so heavily damaged that you almost want to cry.

Only the most outrageously rare items ever sell for more than a few cents in this condition — again, if they sell at all.

Sealed Albums

Still-sealed albums can — and do — bring even higher prices than listed.

However, one must be careful when paying a premium for sealed LPs of any kind for several reasons:

•1. They may have been re-sealed;

•2. The records might not be in Near Mint condition;

•3. The record inside might not be the original pressing or the most desirable pressing;

•4. Most bizarre of all, the wrong record might be inside. I’ve had this happen to me; I opened a sealed album by one MCA artist only to find a record by a different MCA artist inside! Fortunately, I didn’t pay a lot for that sealed LP. I would have been quite upset if I had!
