Description

            In grading vinyl records there are 2 separate grades taken into account, one being the cover/sleeve grade which is based solely on its physical and visual condition.  The vinyl grade has guidelines from Goldmine, eBay and others that describe the visual condition of a record at different grades.
            I took the time to play/test each one of the records individually side by side.  Therefore, the grade I have suggested for the vinyl itself is based heavily (sometimes almost completely) on the audio quality, sound dynamics, play-ability, and overall noise of the record.  

          I personally own/collect and listen to my own vinyl and I don't expect anyone else to care that much about how clean the surface of a record looks if when played it sounds terrible or is audibly unbearable.  The ratio of visual wear vs. audible noise will most often follow an obvious trend.  Because I have listened to the records individually, the 'Vinyl' conditions I have noted are intended to specifically highlight and reflect the current overall audio quality and capacity for dynamics of the vinyl record.

                   ~ Some records are pictured without a paper inner sleeve or with a sleeve from the wrong album or record label.  Most records were switched back with the correct inner sleeve and any other records were given a standard thick white #20 paper inner sleeve with rounded edges for easy insertion, storage and protection.

  I used Goldmine's 6th and 7th editions, as well as a few other grading guides including eBay's for reference.  The 1-10 scale I adopted and adhered to as a guideline throughout the grading process is as follows:

Condition (Abbreviation)

Grade (1-10)

Mint (M)

10

Near Mint (NM)

8

Excellent (EX)

7

Very Good Plus (VG+)

6

Very Good (VG)

5

Very Good Minus (VG-)

4

Good Plus (G+)

3

Good (G)

2

Fair (F)

1

[For information about what each individual grade means specifically about the condition of the record simply just read the key points from the Goldmine or eBay record grading guidelines]

*(Any interested buyers outside of the U.S. please contact me first before bidding/buying because the international shipping options are limited and much more expensive)

This record was graded as;
Record/Vinyl: (VG+)
Cover/Sleeve: (VG+)

Authentic autograph signed by Mick Fleetwood during an event for his personal wine collection (pamphlet included).
