Condition Notes:

Records are generally graded on visual inspection and have been stored in a smoke-free, climate control environment.

Vinyl:

 Mint: A brand new, SEALED record; never played.

NM: Near Mint. An unsealed record that looks as good as new. The vinyl looks as good as if YOU had just broken the seal on the record. This is the best grade I will give any unsealed record.

NM-: This record is NM but has some very, very minor signs that it has been played, such as slight spindle marks and a one or two very superficial marks. Should play without surface noise. 

VG++: Excellent. Has several light cosmetic flaws, blemishes, or scuffs that may begin affect the sound minimally. You should only hear only a few soft ticks, if any.

VG+: More pronounced cosmetic surface marks and light scratches that will result in more surface noise or short soft ticks and pops, but should sound fine overall and does not overwhelm the sound.

VG: May have moderate noise throughout. Cosmetically, appear to have more scratches, more pronounced than you would find in my VG+ records. These are still fine for general listening.

Good: Noisy, but plays through. I will only sell very rare or unusual items in this condition.

Covers:

M: still sealed and pristine.

NM: Unsealed, may have the original shrink wrap, and no marks or wear.

NM-: May have minor signs of wear, including small (1-3 cm) hairline creases, slight edge wear and tiny corner dings.

VG++: larger creases, barely noticeable ring outline (not worn), and modest wear and corner dings.

VG+: Cover has cut-outs, deeper creases and corner wear, more pronounced ring marks (wearing becomes noticeable), and small (1-3 cm) seam splits, and slight writing and sticker residue.

VG: Larger writing on the cover, ring wear, creases, seam splits, clear tape on the cover, and other marks that are significant and detract from, but do not yet overwhelm the cover.

Good: The cover is fairly marked and scuffed. Significant spine and ring wear, large seam splits, tape, prominent writing and other marks that overwhelms the cover. The only reason I will sell a cover in this is if the vinyl is in excellent condition and/or the album is rare.
 

Refund policy:

Grading is such a fickle process. And although I think my grading is very conservative, my NM may be a NM- to someone else. Therefore, I describe any special characteristics on my items. Please make note of my descriptions, as you may find out more about the record here. 

Refunds will be considered for incorrect item shipped, or for glaring differences between the item as described and item as received. Otherwise, all sales are final. Refund will be for the amount of the winning bid, and will not include shipping costs. If you have any questions, ask them before bidding.

 Please note:

Because of the scarcity of this item, I must insist on priority mail. You will feel better about it as well in the end. 

Combining shipping costs for boxed sets will be considered on a case-by-case basis since some boxed sets can take up quite a bit of space.

Auctions over $100 will require shipping insurance, to be paid by the winner. I think you would agree that peace of mind is priceless.
