HOW I CLASSIFY MY RECORDS.

MY CLASSIFICATION IS VERY SIMPLE SINCE I ABIDE BY  THE DICTUM "KEEP IT SIMPLE".

1) NEAR MINT - THE RECORD IS FREE OF SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES -- HAS A NICE SHINY SURFACE--- NO NOTICEABLE SPINDLE MARKS OR HARDLY ANY ----HAS OBVIOUSLY HARDLY BEEN PLAYED, IF AT ALL

2) EXCELLENT- THE SAME AS ABOVE EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THE RECORD HAS SPINDLE MARKS AND HAS BEEN PLAYED.

3) IF THE RECORD HAS A SCRATCH OR A SCUFF, I USUALLY DO NOT CLASSIFY IT - I POINT OUT THE SCRATCH OR SCUFF IN THE DESCRIPTION

- A PAPER SCRATCH OR SCUFF IS SUPERFICIAL AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE SOUND. A RECORD CAN BE ACOUSTICALLY PERFECT AND HAVE A SCUFF OR PAPER SCRATCH FROM HAVING  PERHAPS RUBBED ON THE SLEEVE OR JACKET WHEN INSERTED - OR FOR SOME OTHER REASON

- IF THERE IS A SCUFF OR SCRATCH THAT I THINK MIGHT AFFECT THE SOUND, I PLAY THE RECORD OR THE PART AFFECTED AND DESCRIBE THE RESULTS IN MY EBAY DESCRIPTION

I ALSO ATTACH A NOTE TO THE RECORD WITH WHAT WAS STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION.
