There may be some white light reflections on the vinyl in the photographs, these are not on the actual vinyl.
Records will be properly packed using Defenda MusicMax boxes and thick card stiffeners to help guarantee that they reach you without damage.
I use the Goldmine record grading system.
Mint - The record is unplayed and still sealed (I do not use this particular grading on any record which is not still sealed!).
Near Mint - The record has probably only been played a couple of times (if at all) and may have a couple of very light marks which do not affect the playing quality at all.
Very Good+/Excellent - The record may have slight wear but should still have good sound quality. It may have some light scratches or light marks but no heavy scratches.
Very Good - The record has obviously been played several times and has either scratches or marks but should still play fine (possibly with some crackle).
Good - The record has been well played and has several scratches, it should still play but probably has lots of noise or even jumps or sticks.
Poor - Tatty and really only suitable as a gap filler.
Please note items are visually graded only. They are not played before sale unless otherwise stated.
