JOSEPH SZIGETI / VIOLIN

ARTUR BALSAM / PIANO

MERCURY LIVING PRESENCE STEREO LP # SR90319, THE RECORD IS IN "VG+" CONDITION. THIS RECORD IS NOT FOR THE PURIST. THERE IS A CONSTANT BACKGROUND NOISE, SOME INTERMITANT AND SOME STEADY. MOSTLY THE BACKGROUND NOISE IS LIGHT, BUT IS LOUD IN OTHER AREAS. I FOUND NO SKIPS. THE RECORD HAS VISUALLY LOTS OF VERY LIGHT SCUFFS, ETC.

THE JACKET IS IN "VG++/NM--" CONDITION, WITH SOME RINGWEAR AND LIGHT SHELF WEAR.

RFR2/RFR2.

****************************************************

The following guidelines are used for records and their jackets (boxes).

RECORDS:

FS: Factory sealed, i.e. a mint record or a new record.

NM: Near mint records are records that are not new, but appear to be defect free, visually they usually look very clean and have none or a very few surface mars.

NM - : (Near mint minus) A record with a minimum of surface mars and spindle trails.

NM-/VG+ : A record with minimal areas of low level recurring noise.

VG+ : A record with possibly several areas of low level noise, i.e. a well used record.

VG : A record with constant noise, where noise can be severe.

JACKETS (BOXES, etc.):

FS : Factory sealed

NM: Generally is in new condition.

NM- : (Near mint minus), a little less than NM.

NM-/VG+ : May have one or two minor defects.

VG+ : A variety of defects may be present, such as ringwear, edgewear, corner wear, split seams and/or taped seams, shelf wear.

Most records are visually insepected only. I do play many records to grade them. To me, there are no absolutely perfect records, not even factory sealed ones. Records are not CD's and I believe all have imperfections, pressing bubbles for example, and other innate defects. Having said all the above, I do try my very best to describe a record album honestly. Records have been a life long hobby for me, as I have collected them nearly all my life. I can't say I am a perfect grader, but uisually I am spot on. I am very amenable to making adjustments if you are not satisified with a record: either a full refund or a partial adjustment, which ever you might prefer. I do not run a business, I am only a hobbyist.
