Please see additional terms
below, and please
see my store for more items!

Thanks for your interest!
REGARDING ALL ITEMS:
PACKAGING:
All of my items, regardless
of format, are first wrapped in a plastic liner to protect against liquids,
then wrapped in cushioning material (that is, if appropriate for the item) to
protect against shocks, and finally placed in cardboard (or a cardboard box) to
protect against punctures and sharp objects.
SHIPPING:
Sorry for the inconvenience
in advance, but I add USPS Signature Confirmation to all U.S. orders over
$75. This extra service is at my
expense.
ISSUES: I am confident you
will be 100% happy with this sale.
However, none of us are perfect, so if you are unhappy in any way with
your product, please reach out to me BEFORE leaving negative or neutral
feedback. I will always try my best to correct any mistakes I might make!
GRADING:
If you are new to vinyl
collecting, please independently research the definitions used by the Goldmine
grading system before purchasing from me, since my goal is to conform to this
standard. From best to worst condition,
the grades I use are:
NM (Near Mint),
VG+ (Very Good Plus),
VG (Very Good),
G+ (Good Plus),
G (Good),
F (Fair),
P (Poor).
I do not use the Goldmine
grades Mint (M) or Excellent (EX, or VG++).
As you can see,
"Good" and "Fair" are not as "Good" or
"Fair" as you may have expected!
Sometimes I may not be able
to play test your record and will need to solely make a visual grade. I make all visual grades by angling the
record slowly under a 500-watt halogen light.
PLAY TESTING AND CLEANING:
Please assume the record has
not been play tested or cleaned unless explicitly stated in the description. I
sometimes may test isolated passages , e.g. to test surface noise, but this
should not be construed as my having play tested the media in its entirety,
unless explicitly stated in my comments.
I sometimes clean the discs
I sell, but this is at my sole discretion, so please do not expect your discs
to be professionally cleaned.
PACKAGING:
For vinyl, I will remove the
record with its inner sleeve from the outer sleeve to eliminate danger of seam
splits during shipping. I will not do this for box sets since the vinyl is
already protected. However, before
shipping records which have custom inner sleeves (i.e., showing photos, lyrics,
artwork, etc) I will remove the disc from that custom inner sleeve and place it
in a separate generic sleeve. If a box
set contains custom inner sleeves, I will follow the procedure above and place
all materials back into the box case.
Thanks for reading!
