Condition Notes:
Records are generally graded on visual inspection.
M: Mint. I only use this grade when a record is sealed.
NM: Near Mint. As good as new. I won't grade any unsealed vinyl higher than this.
VG++: Excellent. Looks unflawed but not new; sound should be fine.
VG+: May have cosmetic flaws, mild surface noise or short patches of ticking, but should sound fine overall.
VG: May have moderate noise throughout or one or two bad patches from scratches. Still fine for general listening.
Good: Noisy throughout, but plays through.
Please contact me for a refund if a record plays worse than described.

PAYMENT
I accept checks or money orders, PayPal, Bidpay, or Western Union.
