Description

About me: Hi Folks and thanks for looking at my items for sale,Here is my story..I am sort of what you call an American(California) Picker.I find most of my items at Storage unit sales or Swap Meets or Estate sales ect.Most of the items I find are old and or used and alot of them  I know little of but I do try to describe all best I can but please understand some items are difficult to relay condition I am as easy going as pumpkin pie so hollar if you have any questions at all..I like to start the auctions at a low price So most times you can really find a bargain. Please ask Questions as I am not always the expert on these things. .   

DESCRIPTION:Okay folks,-Here we have a Cool item, it's one of a large lot of records I bought from a storage unit auction,I am not a record dealer but I do love records and will do my best to describe them but PLEASE sometimes records are tough and some peoples idea of what is good may not be the same as mine so be kind if not happy..I do not know prices but will start them at a great low price and see where they go.While it is impossible to listen to every record and some that may look bad actually play very well so hard to tell just by looking at them...some I have even listened to so will let you know on those.I will use the grading system below sometimes to help so please check descriptions besause sometimes a record can fall somewhere inbetween a grading if you know what I mean..like VG+ can also mean better than VG+ but maybe the sleeve is not good...I will also add to anything I think may be a problem. Here we go..this item is James Brown TRY ME LP King 635 Mono Record, now I listened to this one and it sounds great with maybe a pop here or there,the cover on front is nice but on back someoneglued a picture of James brown on it and also wrote their name on the back in 2 places around it. !,Cover VG- Record VG+

1. Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed.(More on still sealed under "Other Considerations"). Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.

2. Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly)that no record is ever truly perfect. 
The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling. 
An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. 
Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. 
Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anything that exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worth significantly more than the highest Goldmine book value. 

3. Very Good Plus (VG+) 
        A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. 
Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". 
The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. 
Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. 
In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable. 

4. Very Good (VG) Generally worth 25 percent of Near Mint value. Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. 
Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them. 
Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price. This, not the Near Mint price, should be your guide when determining how much a record is worth, as that is the price a dealer will normally pay you for a Near Mint record. 

5. Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Generally worth 10-15 percent of the Near Mint value. Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). 
A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. 
It is a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade. 
 I do combine shipping .That is all I know of this item, thanks and good luck.

Shipping Cost: Shipping $4.00 and that includes a tracking number.anything over $200.00 has to be insured by the buyer .please understand I have no control once things are shipped.I try to combine shipping when I can but must be within the same week please.,I really can't wait longer to combine as it gets confusing. I try to save on shipping cost if possible and usually always ship USPS and I try to be very accurate when it comes to shipping charges unlike some.I try to ship a few days a week so if you buy something before say Thursday it will go out that same week,if bought on or after Thursday it will ship out the following Monday most likely.. just want you all to know as it can be tough to find the time to box everyday,hope you can understand.

FEEDBACK: I leave feedback once you have received the item and are happy with it.Please if there is ever a problem always contact me first to see if I can help and as always try to be kind in your feedback,as a seller it is tough to please everyone.

RETURNS: Sorry I normally do not offer returns as most of my items are vintage and you have to expect some kind of wear and tear.but there are exceptions like if I Missed something of importance, so please,always contact me and we will take it on a case by case basis.
THanks...Shipping & Insurance is paid by the buyer.(NO OUT OF U.S SHIPPING) you must ask me first as the cost is alot more to ship overseas.and if the item is over $200.00 you must pay for insurance.. .I usually only charge for shipping but sometimes I have to buy special packaging so it may be more But I will always work with you if there is ever a problem.Thanks & Good Luck.Peace and great music.
