Matrix# 19735 - Makin' Good Time
PLEASE BE SURE TO READ BELOW TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE GRADE
Please
note that we are not a grading nor record collecting
professionals. We use our best judgement using the grading system
shown below. Please refer to the photos of each item to see the
condition for yourself and ask questions if you have any.
As
an example; if there is an item that somebody might grade with a +
or ++, we will give it the same grading, removing the +'s. ie.
"VG++" becomes "VG" according to our system.
Here are the general grading rules we use. Again, no + conditions will be applied:
Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration of sound quality.
Excellent (EX) -
The record shows some signs of having been played but there is no
deterioration of sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and an
occasional light scuff and/or scratch. .
Very Good (VG) -
The record has obviously been played many times and has mild
scuffs and/or scratches and displays lessening of sound quality.
Good
- The record has been played so much the sound quality has
noticeably deteriorated perhaps with some distortion and scratches.
Fair
- The record is still just playable but has not been cared for
properly and displays considerable surface noise. It may even jump.
Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
Bad - The record is unplayable and might even be broken and is only of use as a collection filler.
eBay's given grading categories will be used in this way:
Recording Grading - The condition of the vinyl
Sleeve Grading - On an LP it's the main outer sleeve. For a 45 it will be the paper sleeve.
Inlay condition - This will be used for items that originally came inside the album; pictures, stickers, literature..etc.
Center Label - Notes in this field will pertain to the albums center sticker/label.
All
records will be shipped with a vinyl sleeve to protect the album
during shipment against scuffs and abrasions. They will also be
shipped with an inner paper sleeve whether we use the originally
provided sleeve, or a new one provided by us.
We
do not mind taking specific photos based on your request. We'll
do our absolute best to make sure you are happy with your
purchase. Thank you!
