Description
Bob Dylan, Highway 61 Revisited, CS9189
?
Record VG. Surface marks and natural scratches from normal handling. I can hear an occasional light tick on the last track on side one. Side two, track one has some surface noise and light ticks at the beginning. Side two track three has surface noise and ticks.
?
Cover: VG+
?
Record Sleeve: Sleeve VG with some age yellowing.
?
Please see the photos for condition. Photos are of the actual item.
Your purchase will include the archival plastic sleeve I used to protect the cover, and will be mailed in a strong, well-protected package. To avoid shipping damage to the disc's paper sleeve, I place the disc in a separate sleeve (the only exception would be if the disc is already in a secure archival sleeve that won't be damaged during shipping).
IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ: I want you to be satisfied. I do my best to evaluate a record, but it is NOT a perfect, objective process. Examples: A seller's grade of VG+ might be a buyer's grade of VG or G; a high-end audio system may reveal flaws that I can’t hear on my system. I do my best to under-grade, and exceed your expectations, rather than over-grade and disappoint you. I use the Goldmine Magazine Rating System (SEE BELOW).
TERMS OF PURCHASE: Returns are accepted, following the terms of sale. Because this is a vintage, USED record, it is sold AS-IS. Return shipping will NOT be covered. (Return by media mail is typically $3.12.)
If you have questions about condition please ask before purchase. If I haven't earned positive feedback, please contact me so that I can earn it BEFORE you leave feedback.

Mint (M)
?
Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. ??
Near Mint (NM)
?
A nearly perfect record. No obvious signs of wear. A record sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. ??
Very Good Plus (VG+)
?
A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable.

Very Good (VG)
?
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. ??
Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them. ??
Good (G), Good Plus (G+)
?
A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. If it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade.
?
Poor (P), Fair (F)
?
The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon.
