PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR MY GRADING SCALE

All my albums sold that are unsealed will be shipped outside of the jacket to prevent damage during shipping!

Please ask any and all questions and view all photos prior to bidding as my albums are sold as is.

My grading is as follows:

Sealed=Album is factory sealed and presumed mint.

EX= Album is virtually flawless, appears to have never been played. Jackets will show no dog earing on the corners and will appear mint.

VG+= Album may have a small mark and/or paper scuffs that don't cause playback issues. Other than that, appears flawless. There may be minor writing on the label. Jacket shows light minor ware. There may be minor writing on the jacket.

VG= Album has visible marks which may cause noise and crackles during playback. Album may have small feelable marks that cause light ticks or pops. Jacket shows heavier ware, ringware is likely present and there may be heavier edge ware. Splits of less than .5 inches (approximately) will be included in this grade.

VG-= Album has lots of marks and playback has constant but not over powering noise. Crackles and pops will be present, scuffs visible. Generally won't sell anything with this grade unless its harder to find. Jacket will have lots of ware, seam splits of up to 5 inches will be included in this grade but will be notated in the description.

G+/G= This will be used only for the rare stuff that would be considered place holders. Beater copy for sure. Never will I sell any album valued at at least 150 in this grade. Jacket will be trashed. Full seam splits, writing, tears, rips, you get the idea. Place holder for sure. Don't expect anything woo your mind with a G grade.

Thanks and good luck!
