grading:
Most of my items are rated VERY GOOD as an average. LIKE NEW is difficult to obtain.
(S) Sealed – Sealed item
(LN) Like new –The same as a new item, except not sealed
(ALN) Almost like new – A few very minor imperfections that prevent ‘like new’
(EX) Excellent – A few light wipe marks or hairlines, a very nice item.
(VG) Very good – Still a very nice item without any serious issues.
(G) Good – hairlines wipe marks, scuffs, still operational.
(Acc) Acceptable – usually terrible, no guarantees, cheap. CD will have many hairlines and wipe marks, scratches, cases broken, OBIs bent etc.
I try to under grade to prevent issues with expectations.
Always look for extra information on condition & see photos. Feel free to ask questions.
Other sellers will use positive words like excellent to describe acceptable items. Not me!
