Please make sure you are happy with the price and item description before making a purchase from this store. 
All vinyl LPs, 45rpms, and CDs are listed for 15 days and then removed if not sold to make room for new items. Please feel free to message me if any item you have seen listed is no longer there. If I still have it, I will relist it at the original price and will promptly contact you so you may purchase it then.

While this copy has its share of cosmetic issues, the amount of surface noise is less than moderate and sound is still vibrant. Jacket would have graded VG+ if not for light staining along bottom of cover on front and back.

Unless otherwise noted in listing, all albums, 45rpms and CDs have been graded visually, but you may message me upon purchase and request a test play. If during playback any issues arise that do not match listing grade, you will be given the option to cancel or purchase at a reduced price.

Vinyl will be cleaned regardless of a play test request before shipping.
PRICING AND GRADING MEDIA  Pricing of LPs, 45rpm 7" singles, and CDs are based on matrix numbers that are used to determine pressing using Discogs's database. The suggested price and sales history on this database along with eBay's recommendations are used to set competitive prices.  Vinyl, disc, jacket covers, CD inlays, and jewel cases are conservatively graded using Goldmine Grading Standards. Please view guideline table below.
TWO DAY SHIPPING & HANDELING Two day shipping is my chosen shipping time during winter months through February, but with some orders placed before 12 PM PST on weekdays, items may likely ship out the same day depending on weather, but this is not guaranteed; otherwise, orders are packed with loving care and shipped out the following day. I only charge current media mail rates for shipping and COMBINED SHIPPING RATES ARE AVAILABLE IF YOU PURCAHSE MULTIPLE ITEMS. TO GET COMBINED SHIPPING, PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE PURCAHSING YOUR ITEMS FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
NO RETURN POLICY I stand behind all that I sell so if you get an item with issues, contact me for a solid resolution. I love happy repeat customers.
FEEDBACK I will appreciate your positive feedback very much as it lets other buyers know they're in safe hands. You don't have to lay it on thick in the comment section, and if you don't want to bother at all, I still appreciate your business, but please contact me first if there are any issues that make your transaction less than satisfactory before leaving negative or neutral feedback or leaving less than five stars.

GUIDELINES FOR GRADING MEDIA
Mint (M)
Vinyl Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all. 
Near Mint (NM)
Vinyl A nearly perfect record. A NM record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. 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 Generally worth 50% of the Near Mint value. 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". 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 Generally worth 25% of Near Mint value. 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. 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. Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price.  
Good (G), Good Plus (G+) 
Vinyl  Generally worth 10-15% of the Near Mint value. 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. 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.  
Poor (P), Fair (F)
Vinyl  Generally worth 0-5% of the Near Mint price. 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. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled, and written upon.
