Description
I grade conservatively and pack well. I use the LP mailer. The vinyl will be outside of the cover during shipping so as not to cause damage to the cover in transit. I use Goldmine grading standards and these records have all been visually graded and sometimes play-graded (where noted).
ARTIST/ALBUM: Counting Crows, Recovering the Satellites
LABEL: Geffen, DGC2-24975
VINYL Visual Grade under bright light: Near Mint. First record played once. Second never played.
COVER: Excellent. Original Inner Sleeves included and they have no splits. Cover has no splits. VERY light stickiness on front and back cover. You can barely see some sort of residue if the light hits it right. I have no idea what it is. Cover looks fantastic all around though.
Grading scale:
SEALED: Just that. I will say if cover has any markings or ringwear, etc., but assume a sealed record will play AS NEW.
NM: Shiny. No visible defects. Nearly perfect. Clean label. Looks like it was just opened fresh from the record store when bought new. Plays as if bought new.
VG+/E (E being the high end, more like a NM-): As goldmine says, "except for a couple of minor things, this would be near mint". Light signs of wear, including light scuffs or scratches that do no affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the listening experience are also o.k. (this is straight from Goldmine). Minor signs of handling ok, such as marks around center hole, but not misshapen the hole from repeated playing. If playgrade, very occasional minor surface noise that does not effect play. No loud pops or hisses, to be sure. Again, "except for a few minor things..." Cover can have very minor seam wear or split (less than one inch) at the bottom. Possible defacing, like a cut-out marking.
VG: Lack most of original gloss. Groove wear can be seen. Light scratches deep enough to feel with fingernail. Surface noise and some scratches may be audible such as in soft parts. Noise will not overpower music. Small amount of writing, tape or sticker on label. Covers will have wear such as ringwear (not overwhelming, though). Seam splitting more obvious, such as on all three sides, but won't see it right away when looking for first time. Price tag or writing on cover or back.
G: I will not sell a G or less record unless it is very rare and I will do a full write-up on it, if so. I will sell G covers and I will explain why I give it a G per each auction
Professionally packaged in LP cardboard packages.
PAYPAL ONLY.
I ship worldwide. Out of the U.S. I ship USPS international and charge $1 for handling, Unless your entire order is over 4 pounds. If this occurs, I will not be able to use USPS international male, and the total for shipping will get very pricey.
