INVENTORY NUMBER: 26-45-523
SHIPPING: USPS media mail. Records are shipped in a 45rpm box with spacers to give added protection to the records. In addition, the box is then placed in a padded envelope for additional protection. If you have a larger order, they'll be placed in an appropriate box with peanuts and spacers to protect them. I'm not interested in making a sale only to have the record destroyed in transit.
If you?re tired of poor grading, please give me a shot. My grading tends to be some of the strictest you'll find on Ebay.

VISUAL GRADING SCALE:
Mint (M) Perfect in
every way, having never been played and possibly sealed
Near Mint (NM) The record has
been stored between other records, looks glossy and may have been played a few
times. There are no visible marks on the
vinyl and the sleeve and any inserts are present and complete.
Excellent (E) Almost Near
Mint, but there can be very light marks where the vinyl has been in and out of
the sleeve. There may also be some very
small signs of use.
Very Good Plus
(VG+)
More marks are apparent than an Excellent graded copy, but nothing that
compromises the record visually or audibly.
Slight scuffing or faint scratches may be visible, and upon play, some
slight background crackle.
Very Good (VG) It's been
played a bit, but is still usable. Light
pops and clicks, an edge split, along with light visible scuffs and scratches
can be seen. It is a nice listen, but
you will be able to hear and see the wear in the playing.
Good Plus (G+) This is a
pretty hammered copy that for whatever reason, plays nicely. I usually won't post G+ records unless they're
very rare and play well.
Good (G) I won't be
selling any vinyl in Good condition on eBay because they're usually too beat to
be enjoyable.
Poor (P) Garbage
AUDIBLE GRADING SCALE: (This is something I came up with because it's what I'd personally want if I were buying from a dealer online).
For 45rpm records, I use an Audio Technica LP120 to do the sound grading without headphones.
Plays
New: Just what you'd expect. The record
plays with virtually no surface noise other than the music.
Plays
Excellent: Slight static, barely perceptible. If you have to think about if it plays new or
just below new, it's just below new.
Plays
Average: A solid listen, albeit one with a certain acceptable amount of white
noise in the background. For vinyl, this
usually means more popping with the sound actually being pleasant.
Plays
Below Average: Heavier white noise makes listening not as nice as higher
audible grades.
Plays Like Crap: I won't be selling any of these
