Hello..Just a little about myself. I have been with Ebay since 1998. I stopped for a little while as we downsized and our new home won't hold all of my personal collection of dolls.  I used to sell dolls along with a variety of other unique and vintage items, but always kept my favorites on display.  Our new house is considerably smaller and will not hold all of my treasured items..so, instead of taking them to an auction where other dealers will buy them and sell for a profit, I have decided to start up again on Ebay and save my buyers some money. I am adding alot of pictures and please include them in your assessment of the item.  I think I have put a reasonable price on my items...but I will always seriously consider an offer.     Thanks for visiting my auctions and good luck!

OFFERED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION:

I have to be honest here....I am not an expert on Grading Records....These belonged to a Friend of Mine and they were her Mother's Albums...So..

This is the way I inspect them.  I take the record first, being as careful as they were not to touch the record..I hold it up to the light to see if there are any fingerprints or scratches on it...I do this for both sides and tilt it a little just to make sure I don't miss something.  

I look at the sleeve to see if there are any tears or dirt or wrinkles.

The album ..I look for fading (since some of these are quite old) stains, rips, holes, writing, wear to the edges and bumps to the corners.  I will still call an album cover mint if there are small bumps to the corners...but I will tell you in my description. 

I am very proud to put these albums on Ebay as I know the owners were meticulous in the care of them.

When explaining the condition of these Albums..I will use

Album:  for the Cover

Sleeve: for the paper that the record is placed in inside the cover.

Record:  Self Explanatory

I will say that they took excellent care of their things.  These records were never left out of the cover...They were put back into the sleeve and into the Album and back into the Credenza...but I will explain the condition honestly.

Record: Mint...no fingerprints, no scratches, no smudges, label in mint condition.  It has been played, but looks like new  - very slick

Sleeve: NM  It has a tear at the left upper corner

Album: Mint  It does not have shrink wrap...but looks like new.
