What you're looking at: Great playing copy of this classic album! One of Miles' classic sessions with Prestige. The vinyl has some knicks here and there, and the gloss appears to be a bit dull. Other than that, there are a few light marks here and there ... VG vinyl, VG+ sleeve; great art.

How it stacks up:

RECORD: VG (6.5 of 10) Plays pretty good with some pops or clicks here and there. Not a whole lot of background noise. For the most part, it plays pretty well.

SLEEVE: VG+ (7.5 of 10) Pretty solid cover. Good art, high gloss, and no splits! There is slight peeling on the front in the middle -- see pictures, they are pretty descriptive. Some age soiling ... otherwise good!

NOTE: This album is part of a collection I recently got it. It came with some fantastic jazz; quite a bit of Blue Note. I'm listing a few for now, but more next week once I get in more packing supplies and have a chance to clean the others! 

NOTE: I'm happy to say that I can now vacuum clean ALL records that are sold!

MY GRADING SCALE:

OK, my goal is to be as specific as I can without being ridiculously wordy. I give one of these (from worst to best): G, G+, VG-, VG, VG+, VG++. That is it. No more letters, thus VG++ is a very good record. NM does NOT exist in my scale.

AFTER THE GENERAL GRADING SCALE, I have a second number in parenthesis, which is meant to be more specific. I find that a number is more specific than a general sector of opinion, thus the number will be between 1 and 10. This is meant to give you a more-specific idea of what you are getting into audio quality wise, the former is more for visual.

That being said, I play with a customized Thorens TD 165 through Polk Speakers and a Pioneer receiver. If I played the record, I will write so in the description; otherwise, I listen to small parts of the record for testing -- not the whole thing.

RETURNS: Generally returns are a no go, unless you have a compelling reason; also, I will give a TWO week grace period for exchanges (that means the buyer pays shipping back to me if they want a return). I give plenty of chances to see what you’re buying (audio clips, emails, two part grading system and a full policy description) and, as I see it, the buyer has as much responsibility as the seller to a) know what they are buying and b) have the decency to ask prior to purchase.

COMBINED SHIPPING: I charge a flat rate of $4 for one record, which covers postage, plastic sleeves, replacement inserts, shipping boxes, etc … After that, if you purchase more, it is $1 extra for each record domestically.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I now will ship overseas of whatever the quote is. so CHECK THE QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING!!

I really hope this answers all questions and concerns; however, if it doesn’t, EMAIL ME. Other than that, bid happily.
