FREE SHIPPING WITH TRACKING INCLUDED!!!
PERSONAL COLLECTION - DECIDING TO PART WITH THESE TWO, GRAB 'EM BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND!

Vinyl Condition: NM- please check our feedback and grading scale.  20+ yrs in rare vinyl.  Very light paper marks but nothing at all drastic.  Fantastic shine due to inners being present their whole life.  

Cover Condition: Normal shelf for both, spines still very legible.  *Note - last picture "Appetite" has a lower right corner ding, not drastically noticable, but definitely worth mentioning.  Please carefully inspect the pictures (I even included a close up of this so you can clearly see the area).  Very minor ring started on "Appetite" but last few years the records have been kept separate from their covers to prevent this from happening.  "Lies" obviously still has the original shrink and sticker!

Quantity: 2 Lp's

I am a private collector who is slowly unloading records from my own personal collection.  They have all been amassed over the years and always stored in a cool, dry, smoke-free & pet-free environment.  I will always do my best to describe the condition of a record, but as most of you know grading vinyl is up for interpretation (with the exception of sealed records) and opinions can vary from person to person. Below is the system I will be using to grade the record(s). By all means, if you have a question, please ask. We pack well and ship fast once payment has cleared.  Please check out my other auctions, as I will be parting with some other great treasures.  Please e-mail first if you have any concerns. Happy bidding, thanks for looking and long live vinyl!

Mint (M) or Still Sealed

Basically means that it is as good as new, literally. The vinyl has to look new and sound as though it was never played, and the cover has to look untouched.

***I WILL NOT GRADE A RECORD "MINT" UNLESS IT IS STILL FACTORY SEALED & IN AMAZING SHAPE***

Near Mint (NM)

Vinyl is near perfect. At most, a light scuff appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or skips. The record sleeve should also be near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no outline sleeve.

Excellent (EX or VG++)

Vinyl should still play with no skips. There can be some very minor surface scuffs, but they should not affect the sound quality to a great extent. There can be some very minor background noise.  The record sleeve can have some minor ring wear but it should be mostly in good shape. Also, there can be some minor creases in the corners but no splits in the seams.

Very Good+
(VG+)

This is the grading category where the quality of the sound is affected -- there will be some surface noise -- and the vinyl will show wear, including surface scuffs and some light scratches. However, the record is still very listenable as there are no deep scratches that cause skips. On the cover, the corners may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but not tears or holes.

Very Good
(VG)

Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still plays well enough. Surface noise will probably be present, including pops and clicks. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower any pops and clicks present. There may be seam splitting, but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part still be in good condition.

Good (VG-)

Vinyl is well played and looks it. However, the record should still play without skipping. It will have substantial surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic range will occur due to worn grooves. This grade depends a lot on the owner and the type of records he or she collects. A rock record may still sound ok at a high volume, but quieter styles of music may be practically unlistenable. The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.

Fair/Poor (F/P)

Records described as fair (F) or Poor (P) are ones that are basically unlistenable. Surface noise, skips and pops make hearing what's on the record nearly impossible, if not completely impossible. The cover is falling apart, torn, and has writing all over it. The only reason to keep it would be if the record is extremely rare.  Collection filler, not meant to be played.
