records are played from start to finish and I will always try to grade as accurately as possible ** I also use the Record Collector's Grading system which is as below: MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. A little bit about me...As a Multiple Sclerosis sufferer I was forced to give up work some time ago but thanks to the opportunities that Ebay brings to people like me I decided to get my life back on track and give Ebay selling a go! So to all that look, enquire and buy - THANKS! This is one of many soon to be listed items of a music related theme. I will be listing numerous CD titles, some rare and plenty not so!
Look out for some rare and collectable vinyl listings - many genres including northern soul, prog, rock n roll and classical to name but a few
