Condition Ratings

MINT (M): Perfect, brand new, unplayed.

Near Mint (NM): Like new, barely played, will play perfectly.

Excellent (EX): Very close to near mint, with minor cosmetic wear. Will play perfectly.

Very Good Plus (VG+): Light cosmetic blemishes that do not affect play. Close to perfect playback.

Very Good (VG): Some light marks that may cause minor noise during playback. Still enjoyable and plays well.

Good Plus (G+): Noticeable noise during playback. Only listed if of collector value. Not ideal for listening.

You may request the results of a play test. Shipping can be combined on multiple items!

New records can be nicely taken out of their sealed sleeves and shipped this way to protect from seam splits during transit. If you’d like this done, please let us know or leave a note when you place your order.
