Well after many years doing auctions on eBay, I've finally decided to let some of my high end vinyl go. Don't miss out, I'm posting a handful of jazz gold. I mean ... good golly this is an amazing album. Coltrane and Rollins together with Chambers ... you can't even. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

____________________________________________________________________
Vinyl:  (VG+ (7.6 of 10): Very well preserved. High gloss. Has some pressing haze and paper scuffing, but you'll hear this album very loud and clear throughout. I've never noticed hiss, but there may be some very low hiss ... overall it's a 90% high quality listen. Very well preserved.
Cover: VG+ (7.3 of 10): Very well preserved with some small issues. Art is great, gloss is great, and it's overall very well preserved. There's some chipping on the bottom seam in the middle. There's some cracking on the spine, but overall all the seams hold well still. 
VINYL WEIGHT: 150-160g
Additional Notes: Deep Groove, RVG HAND etched (indicating an earlier pressing); Bergenfield address label. You won't be disappointed. _____________________________________________________________________

Regarding Grading: I always use the standard G-VG+ scale. I, however, absolutely never use the word "mint" because I don't believe I've ever found a mint record -- even sealed ones. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number system to get a bit more specific.

The number: my number system gets a bit more granular. For the record, it's meant to reflect more the audio quality and overall aesthetic. For the cover, it reflects overall preservation, gloss, and damage, if there is any.
A few notes about quality, purchasing, and shipping: 
* I always vacuum clean my records. They've all gone through a three step solution process with a vacuum cleaning machine I built.
** All records are shipped in record boxes.

*** All records are shipped with a plastic sleeve, and the records will be shipped OUTSIDE the cover.

Shipping is a standard $4 domestic, and by weight international ... so CHECK YOU INTERNATIONAL PEOPLE. Shipping is expensive these days -- don't shoot the messenger.
