Backgroud 

The vinyl listings on my eBay store The Vinyl and Collectible Shop are from my late husband's business stock inventory that was around 80,000 records (seperate from his world-reknown personal collection of 20,000+ orginals).  At present, what's for sale are about 20-30,000 fantastic condition business stock vinyl.  My husband had been seriously collecting jazz instrumental an jazz vocal LPs since the 1950's.  He was a radio jazz DJ for 40+ years as well as a jazz promoter.  He has contributed to many jazz discographies and other jazz publicaons as well as radi, movies and television.  He was the recipient of seveal jazz awards.  Also, he was the representaive for the famous jazz aritst David Stone Martin. The records that will be listed are only a faction of the greater collection that includes rare and out of print jazz Lps and highly sought collectible jazz literature and artwork to collectors and institutes worldwide.

The grading system is slightly DIFFERENT from Goldmine's standard, so please read the grading key below. Years ago these were all visually and many (I can?t promise all), were play graded. Before listing, I give another visual grade under proper lighting, but I did not play grade since it likely was already done. 

To avoid grading conflicts I typically will list one grade lower, when in question,  than what was originally graded.  This will result often times E+ that may actually be a N- OR an E that is closer to an E+ OR an E- than is closer to an E. Lots of great value!!

Returns

I accept returns, with the buyer's responsible to cover return shipping costs. I do expect any returns to be as carefully package as it came to you.  Media grading is obvious contentious and can be subject to individuals standards and opinions to an extent.  If you don't agree with my media grading, simply send me a direct message and I will send you a full refund once the record has been return.  NO QUESTIONS ASKED.  I would much prefer happy and loyal customers that can buy with confidence.

Grading Code and Aberviation Key

(*) denotes stereo (es) denotes fake stereo-electronically reprocessed

FS   Factory Sealed

NM    Record has never been played. Often, a sealed lp (e.g. Blue Note, Prestige) is opened to check label designation

N   The record may be unplayed or has been played with great care. There may be limited and hairline marks visible under light and very close inspection.  If there are multiple hairline marks, I typically will list them as N-  There should not be any playback issues.

N-  Very light hairline marks can be seen upon close inspection.  There may be minor signs of the record being taken in and out of the inner sleeve, or tiny signs of use generally.  Imperfections will  NOT affect playback.

E+   Very little if any surface noise in spots.  Many E+ records could play out as essentially new. Often will have surface scraches upon closer inspection.  Should be suitiable for most.

E   Slight overall surface noise typical of many older used LPs (should not be a record that is loaded with pops & tics. Should NOT have any scratches that could be felt, however surface scratch are likely present). High filters on many stereos could remove the slight overall noise.  Will have some light scraths, or may have numerous hairline scratches and/or surface scuffs.  E records overall should play fine without any much if any disruption.

E-   Surface and background noise below music level but record is noisy. Will have scratches.  Scrathes on E- graded records will typical be slightly more significant than hairline, but should NOT have deep scracthes.  Most marks will still be surface but will be longer and/or more will be present than an record graded E or E+

Very rarely I will sell G or F unless its a very rare and sought after record that is still desirable even in the following media conditions.
