Conditions and Grading

Below is my basic grading scale. I will also describe specifics of the gradings in the listings.
SS Still Sealed
Never opened. And flaws will be described in the listing.

M- Mint Minus
Has been opened, but is still essentially flawless with no damage whatsoever.
EX Excellent
A clean record. Plays like new but may not look as perfect as a M- record. Cover may have very superficial wear. My EX (particularly on the vinyl) is like most sellers' M-.
VG++ Very Good Plus Plus
A record that plays mostly clean with perhaps a few spots of light noise. Cover may have minor wear (bit of ringwear, a name written on cover or label, minor fraying at edges, etc.) Records at this level are generally good enough copies for collectors who are not mint freaks.
VG+ Very Good Plus
Vinyl: A record that plays with a minor amount of noise. Cover shows signs of normal wear: may be taped, have a seam split, ringwear, etc... Not bad, but not ideal either.
VG Very Good
Vinyl: May crackle, pop or make other annoying noises, but is not louder than the music. Will not skip.
Cover: Has cover wear such as ring wear and split seams, writing, maybe some minor tears. Similar wear to VG+ but more of it.
VG- Very Good Minus
Generally not a good copy of an LP, one only worth buying for rare records. Surface noise throughout, maybe even a skip or two. Cover is well worn in many ways.
P Poor
Trashed.

Return Policy

If a return is desired, please contact and discuss with me first. No buyer has ever asked me for a return before, except in one instance where I mistakenly mailed the wrong item (and, of course, the return was authorized at my expense), but I promise to deal fairly with any issue the buyer may have.
