Tom Petty, Full Moon Fever Vinyl Record LP, 1989 Original MCA-6253.  Vinyl is VG+, however, there are two rather strange "jumps" or non-repetitive skips during the second half of Free Falling.  These perplexed me because there are no deep marks visible, maybe a professional cleaning will fix this?  Rest of the vinyl is solid VG+, nice gloss, light surface marks.  Cover is EX, seams intact, just a couple light creases.  With inner lyrics sleeve in great shape (small seam split on the bottom middle.)

International buyers:  I will charge the actual cost, using First Class International (lowest rate).

All records are packaged in special boxes made specifically for records, with the vinyl outside of the cover.  Cardboard fillers added for extra support.  I almost ALWAYS ship within one business day of receiving payment.  I grade visually, however, if there is marks of concern or the records are valuable I play test them.  If I grade an item EX, you are not going to receive an all scratched up album like has happened to me buying on EBAY all too often.  If I grade EX, you are going to get a very clean vinyl.  I have sold thousands of records this year with very, very few problems.  If for some reason you are not satisfied with the record, just contact me.  I will refund your money no questions asked or we can work on other solutions/options.  I always do whatever I can to make the buyer satisifed.  

Finally, I am also very annoyed with records I've bought on EBAY that when I opened the box, I almost lost my lunch because of the horrific smell of the cardboards.  If my records have a bad odor, it WILL be mentioned in the listing.   

I am a one-man operation who hunts and hunts 24/7 for records and then sell the ones I don't want any more in my collection just so I can afford to keep my rather obsessive hobby going! 

Enjoy the sound!

I use the Goldmine Record Grading System:

MINT (M): Perfect! This record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws what so ever. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains. No stickers address labels, writing on the covers or labels. No tears or seam splits. No wear to the cover or record period! Age of the record has nothing to do with it. 

NEAR MINT or NM, M- : this record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaw. The flaw is very hard to see. The cover looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork is be as close to perfect as can be. 

EXCELLENT or EX or VG++ : minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a few scuffs and NO Scratches COVER: Artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear! Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white (where the artwork pasted slick was) meaning, slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs can make this grade. 

VERY GOOD PLUS or VG+ record shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye.  COVERS: A virtually clean cover, but may have small writing on it.The artwork looks clean with slightly more aging. The back of the cover usually gives away the age of the cover. Flat white paper will be somewhat yellow yet no stains or mildew from water damage. Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through. The corners will be slightly dog eared yet no crackly bends, defacing the artwork. In essence, a VG+ cover should have no more than 3 flaws mentioned. 

VERY GOOD or VG: this record is a record that is good enough. They are not really going to look very good,. There will almost always be some surface noise when they are played. The Dynamics should still be excellent, overpowering the surface noise. A VG record will appear well have been played but still have some luster. VG covers will look worn, used. There may be some seam splitting . There will be some ring wear, where the ink has begun to wear off. Giving the cover a look of snow falling. If the artwork looks snowy all over, it is less than VG condition. There may be some writing on the cover (still, no Large letters in magic marker). It will look aged and more yellowish due to contamination's in the air (sometimes looking like cigarette smoke). Still it should be decent. 

GOOD or G A good record will look very well played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However a Good record should still play. It will have distracting surface noise. Such as crackle that is continuous or some hiss. Will also have some loss of dynamics caused from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any obtrusively loud pops or repeated clicks, caused by deep scratches. Good means that it will play with some form of decency, so one can still enjoy the music even though you can still hear noise caused from the wear. A Good cover will have just about everything wrong with it. It will have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs. These are big turn offs. May have magic marker writing on the cover but still if they are in huge letters, it is a big turn off.In essence, the cover will looked virtually trashed, but some artwork will still be noticed. If the artwork is worn, it is POOR and the cover is worthless.
