Descriptions for this set are below:

(VG+) Some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear, slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but  barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, slight seam split, 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.  

(VG) - In a VG record surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a songs intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, slight seam split, marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner + may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.

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

Please read notes below for how we run our shop:

Play-Testing:  We test most of our Records by playing them completely through unless Sealed, Opened but not played, or Large Collections (more than 4+) before listing.  All Play-Grading is available at no charge, allow 1 day for larger collections.  If we find a skip or VG quality we will disclose and offer a refund if already paid or if not, we will contact you and see if there is still interest after disclosure.  We always state either Play-Tested, Visual Tested or Spot Tested.

Surface Marks:  Surface marks can be smudges or light scratches.  We always state if these are on the records.  Please be comfortable if you receive one from us with them, these are used records in most cases.  We don't sell records which skip and we don't sell records with deep groove scratches.

First Press/Original Press - An original pressing typically refers to a vinyl record that was made from the initial batch of lacquers in the production process and cut from the original master recordings. As they are the first records to be pressed, these are the definitive editions and best sounding records.  These copies are generally more expensive.

Reissue - A reissue pressing is a record that has been rereleased, usually a while after the album was originally produced.  The original back of lacquers may or may not be used and usually involves a change in some form (redesigned label, colored vinyl, etc.).  These are more plentiful but oftentimes lose the richness and quality of the original pressing and in some cases are even recordings from another media (such as a CD).

Record Covers:  We try and grade covers and records as one set but oftentimes the cover may not be in as good of a condition as the record.  Please look at pictures we include as they are not stock, they are actually what will be provided.  We will provide two grades if significant in our description above. Extremely damaged original covers are not for sale and are replaced with Generic covers.

Generic Record Covers:  Generic covers are well-made jackets with a circle viewing window.  They are as pictured and in most cases glossy black.  Sometimes cardboard is used based on the weight of the Vinyl (i.e., pure Shellac albums can be heavy).  Cardboard sleeves are light brown colored and can be viewed in the photos.  Generic covers do not carry a "grade".  Our Records with generic covers are usually VG+ or better with very few graded as VG.  These are often times hidden gems at great prices!!  

Inner Sleeves:  We do not mention nor grade these unless they have specific characteristics.  We provide a replacement inner sleeve if the one we have has extensive damage.

Grading:  The detailed grading we use is Goldmine Standard/eBay Standard.  

Shipping:  We will combine shipping, please contact us ahead of time.  Items which are returned as undeliverable will be charged up to a 20% restocking fee if the buyer wants to have it re-delivered depending on how long the album has not been in our inventory.  We are not responsible for an address that is provided and does not match what is listed in eBay.  We really don't want any of this to happen to anyone - please ensure your address is correct!!

Satisfaction Guarantee:  If you are unhappy, we offer a return period. We also encourage you to contact us via email if you find the record is not as we represented. 

About Us:  We are those people who are known for scavenging through Garage Sales and Estate Sales - hunting for the ever elusive "hidden" gem of a vinyl!  We scour through our purchases, excited like it is Christmas every time.  Disappointed when we have to throw away the ones that just don't make the "grade", always wondering "what if" it played better, knowing it would only be heard from here on out as a synthesized version on Apple or Pandora.  Vinyl records are more than just the artist belting out his favorite tune, without all the electronic dubbing - it is the memories of days gone by, favorite songs that made us laugh, sigh in attraction, maybe party a little too much, dance a little too much or even cry a little too much.  Remembering the days of watching a tiny needle spin on that disk of vinyl, sound vibrating your windows through those really huge speakers you had to have!!  So we invite you to enjoy what you find here, give the old records a spin and allow yourself to go back to those yester years when somehow life was just "different".  Thanks for stopping by!!
