I'm not a professional record seller, this is from my personal collection. All records are graded purely visually. None has been out of its jacket in 25 years and I no longer have a turntable to check them. When I did listen to them I was meticulous about handling and cleaning so, on average, the record condition is VG. I've tried to be conservative in grading using the Goldmine grades below. Please check the specific grading for this item and examine photos closely. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

If you purchase more than one item from me and would like to combine shipping, please don't pay immediately. I will send you an invoice with the updated shipping total. All items must ship using the same service - Media Mail or Priority Mail.

Thanks for looking.

Goldmine grading

Mint (M)

Vinyl, Cover and Labels: Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. 

Near Mint (NM or M-)

Vinyl: A nearly perfect record, has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. record should show no obvious signs of wear. 

Cover and Labels: An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.  

Very Good Plus (VG+) 

Vinyl: A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK".  

Cover and Labels: The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.  

Very Good (VG) 

Vinyl: Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. 

Cover and Labels: Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time. 

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) 

Vinyl: A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback. 

Cover and Labels: A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present.  

Poor (P), Fair (F)

Vinyl: The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. 

Cover and Labels: The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled, and written upon.
