Description

Hello, I'm selling my uncle's record collection, he's given me loads of 1960's and 1970's vinyls.  It seems to be quite an interesting lot.  I'm not an experienced seller but I will try to describe my record's condition in the best of ways, adopting the Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide (see bottom page).   I have had to adopt a visual grading only as I unfortunately have no means to listen to the records themselves.
GORDON JACKSON - THINKING BACK UK LP 1ST PRESS,EX/EX.(TRAFFIC) (MARMALADE LABEL).
MARMALADE,UK,1969,608012,

COVER:  light wear, small tear on front VG+

RECORD: just 1 tiny scuff EX

SHIPPING:  I will be happy to send to UK or Worldwide, but, because of Royal Mail's postage system, which pricing is based on weight, I will have to calculate the cost of shipping according to the country you are living in.  Parcels destined abroad will always be sent via international signed for delivery, in order to ensure a safe receipt of the record.


Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."

As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.

In addition to the basic grading, any individual faults should be noted separately such as if an otherwise Excellent cover has a name written on it, or a 7" single is missing its original centre etc
