This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.
Every record is a VG+! A great collection! All of the sleeves are G+ or better!
Auction starts at $1 with no reserve! If you love records, followy store! I am posting new records all the time!
The records are just eye graded under bright light. There are far too many records to play them as I usually do. Since these are graded by eye, please note that they could easily play better or worse than the vinyl visually shows.
My grading standards can be found underneath my grades.

My estimates for eye grading:
Vinyl:
M/Mint: Sealed
NM: I do not grade used vinyl NM. I grade NM records as VG++. NM have no scratches and should have clean grooves.
VG++: Can have up to 2 hairline scratches that are one inch long or 1 hairline scratch that is 2 inches long per side. Others may grade NM.
VG+: I would expect this to play without crackling interfering with sound quality. This can have scratches but scratches usually have to be spaced out allowing the record to play cleanly.
VG: I would expect this to have some crackling. Could interfere with sound quality. I try to note if the scratching is very heavy as the record is at risk of having pops, excessive crackling, or skips.
G+: Tons of extremely deep scratching. Dings and chips. If I grade a record G+, the record is usually a rare one that still could have value.
Sleeve:
1 imperfection:VG+
2 imperfections: VG
3 Imperfections: G+
4 or More Imperfections: G
Examples of sleeve imperfections: Writing, stickers, ring wear, binding wear, moisture damage, torn seams, taped seams, and more.
