PACKING
Special German made extra-stiff Cardboard Box designed for multiple LPs are used, even for single LP packages. The boxes are oversized and thus provide extra corner protection as well as great stiffness to the package. Additional protection may also be used when found nessesary, such as stiffeners, bubble-wrap, extra corner-protection. I do not charge anything for packing materials.
GRADINGS
MINT(-) is as close to new as a used LP or cover can get, unplayed or played 1-2 times at most with no visual signs of use on surfaces.
MINT- is superb, almost like new. No marks, scratches, clicks, noise, or anything else. All minor blemishes will be mentioned in the individual descriptions.
EX or EXCELLENT + is also Fantastic with a few extreme fine Microlines / inaudible marks in the gloss, no disturbing noise, great sound quality.
VG+ is nice with light hairlines, a few marks maybe. Please see individual notes in case of VG+ or lower gradings.
VG... Well used but still very enjoyable. See individual notes on the item in question.
Thank you all and Good luck for Bidding !!!
