GRADING :  All records are graded visually under a very bright 100 W bulb and are listed cover/record. It is my opinion that once a record has been set on a turntable it is no longer mint, so anything listed M is unplayed! Otherwise grading is as follows:

SS     Still sealed.
M     Unplayed only.
M-     Perfect, as new, unmarked.
VG++     LP: Very light liner scuffs or surface scratch, minor discoloration of vinyl. Cover: Very light cover wear.
VG+(++)     LP: Slightly more liner scuffs or light surface scratch(es). Cover: Light cover wear or start of ring.
VG+(+)     LP: More light scuffs or scratches, though inaudible. Cover: A bit more cover wear or fuller jacket ring.
VG+(+?)     LP: More surface wear or light scratches, but a good play copy. Cover: More cover wear and/or jacket ring.
VG+     LP: More visible or possibly audible scratches, but no skips. Cover: Very visible jacket ring/cover wear.
VG(+)     LP: Scuffed or scratched quite visibly, though not necessarily audible. Cover : Obvious severe cover wear.
VG     LP: Quite visibly used and worn. Cover: Visibly used and worn.

Any marks that appear to affect play have been play graded as well. In many cases, there may be a sticker tear or a nick on one cut that will lower the overall grade, and these conditions should be noted in the description. My experience is that most people don't even consider anything graded less than VG+, so I apologize for all the minor ( )'s, but I feel it the honest thing to do. I feel the grading is quite strict. Play grading is noted where done. If you have any problem with the grading on a record, I'll be glad to work it out with you. Just let me know.

On most bid/offer items, they are that way because I'm unsure of the value, so it does not mean I'm out to gouge anyone. Just bid what it's worth to you and you just might get it. Any offers I consider insufficient will be disregarded for the most part. All non bid items are sold first come, first served. If you reserve or bid on something, please honor that! Otherwise, you're depriving myself, as well as others who may have been turned down due to the reservation/bid. If you know it may take a while or something comes up, please let me know. Anyone who reserves items and does not follow through on payment will be dropped from the mailing list immediately and permanently!
