Please note that I use The Record Collectors' Grading System, taken from the Rare Record Price Guide book. Very similar to Goldmine grading, but with a little more room for a tighter description. I may use + and - to give you a better idea of what you're buying. I always try to grade my records conservatively, please check my feedback to verify. 


Albums will be shipped removed from their cover and packed securely in record mailers. I will combine shipping at no extra cost.  All records will be cleaned on a vacuum record cleaning machine before packaging and shipping.

Shipping rates - Please pay close attention as the price and shipping method varies widely depending on your location. All records will be shipped with tracking, which is slightly more expensive but protects both you and me. If you would like Express or Priority shipping, please let me know after purchasing. Insurance available.
