We do our best to give accurate accounts of our records. All are pre-owned and vary in condition. We grade visually unless otherwise indicated and view them under a bright light. Grading is according to Goldmine’s visual standards. We take into account that grading vinyl records is highly subjective so we often grade lower than we perceive some records are to be as conservative as possible.
