GRADING!

GRADING IS BASED ON GOLDMINE'S GRADING SYSTEM. I AM CONSERVATIVE WHEN GRADING MY ALBUMS AND I TRY TO BE OBJECTIVE IN DOING SO. MANY ALBUMS OFFERED FOR BID ARE FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION OF OVER 50 YEARS. WHILE SOME COME FROM OTHER COLLECTIONS AND ESTATES, NONE COME FROM GARAGE SALES OR SWAP MEETS.

MINT: (M); ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. CERTAINLY NEVER PLAYED AND PERHAPS STILL IN THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

NEAR MINT: (NM); A NEARLY PERFECT RECORD AND ALBUM COVER. THE RECORD SHOULD SHOW NO OBVIOUS SIGNS OF WEAR. THE ALBUM COVER SHOULD HAVE NO CREASES, FOLDS, SEAM SPLITS, WRITING, TAPE OR OTHER NOTICEABLE DEFECTS, INCLUDING CUT-OUT HOLES. BASICALLY, AN ALBUM IN NEAR MINT CONDITION SHOULD LOOK AS IF IT WAS JUST PURCHASED FROM A RECORD STORE AND REMOVED THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

VERY GOOD +: (VG+); A VERY GOOD PLUS WILL SHOW SOME SIGNS OF USE AND THAT IT WAS PLAYED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO TOOK CARE OF IT. RECORD SURFACES MAY SHOW SOME SLIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY HAVE SLIGHT SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES THAT DO NOT AFFECT ONE'S LISTENING EXPERIENCE. SLIGHT WARPS THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE SOUND IS OK. THE LABELS MAY HAVE SOME RINGWEAR OR DISCOLORATION, BUT THEY SHOULD BARELY BE NOTICEABLE. THE CENTER HOLE WILL NOT BE MISSHAPEN BY REPEATED PLAY. THE ALBUM COVER MAY HAVE SLIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY BE MARRED BY A CUT-OUT HOLE, INDENTATION OR CORNER INDICATING IT WAS TAKEN OUT OF PRINT. A VERY GOOD PLUS RECORD IS HIGHLY ACCEPTABLE AND DISIRABLE.

VERY GOOD: (VG); SURFACE NOISE WILL BE EVIDENT UPON PLAYING, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES AND DURING A SONGS INTRO AND FADE. LABELS MAY BE MARRED BY WRITING OR HAVE TAPE OR STICKERS ATTACHED. THE SAME WILL BE TRUE WITH ALBUM COVERS. TAPED SEAMS MAY BE COMMON.

GOOD PLUS (G+) OR GOOD (G); I RARELY DEAL WITH THIS CATEGORY.

SUMMARY; I SINCERELY HOPE THIS INFORMATION IS OF VALUE TO YOU. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING RARE, INVESTMENT GRADE ALBUMS FOR OVER 50 YEARS AN I AM SURE THAT YOU WILL BE PLEASED WITH MY AUCTIONS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST.
