I am in the process of selling of some of the records I have collected over the past 30 years.  If you are looking for collectable classical, historic jazz, original audiophile pressings, direct to disk recordings, reissues of great recordings, or, coming soon, Decca and EMI TEST PRESSINGS, then please add me to your favorites list.  For those of you who have bought from me in the past, Thank you.  I try to be fair, honest and conservatively rate my records.  I also try to provide a professionally packed record at a reasonable price.  If you are new to my listings, please see my feedback.  I will let my customer's speak for me.  

Thank you for your interest.

GOLDMINE GRADING

MINT ---- It should appear to be perfect. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits. Mint means perfect.

NEAR MINT ---- Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident: slight ring-wear, minor denting to a corner, or writing on the cover should all be noted properly.

VERY GOOD PLUS ---- The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. Not too far from perfect. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptably VG+ for most collectors.

VERY GOOD ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, but should not overwhelm the musical experience. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.

GOOD ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork.
