Greetings! Please stay tuned over the coming weeks for listings of some exquisitely rare, highly sought-after LPs in superb condition from a private collection. I'm an experienced collector who believes in providing all the essential details to help an educated buyer make an informed purchasing decision. Most of the items I will be selling are investment grade due to their rarity and condition. All items are carefully inspected and conservatively graded based on close visual inspection and audio playback on a high-quality stereo system. Grading is in strict accordance with either Goldmine Record Album Price Guide (Goldmine) or the UK's Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide (RRPG), as specified below.

PACKAGING:
As a fellow collector, I understand the vital importance of packaging your rare and highly valuable LP with special care.  I use heavy cardboard LP mailers with two stiffeners and extra corner reinforcement to protect your investment.  All vinyl records are shipped securely in premium, audiophile-grade replacement inner sleeves outside the original cover/sleeve to prevent seam splits in transit.  If you have special requests, I'll make every effort to accommodate you given the high collectible value of the item.  My goal is your full satisfaction.
