Zoot Sims - Zoot! - Riverside Records RLP 12-228 - MONO deep groove both sides, small blue label without INC
Record Condition: VG+  as nice as VG++ in many sections, but appears VG+ with some unfeelable marks that cause minimal noise that is more audible in ballads.  Much of the record plays without any noise at all.
Cover Condition: VG the spine is pretty much completely split, also significant flaking along the top but the bottom seam is strong.  Despite the seams, this one presents really well with a pristine cover image and minimal wear on the reverse with no pen marks or stamps. Please refer to pictures for details.
About Me: I'm a vinyl collector focusing exclusively on jazz records. I don't sell a lot, but when I do it is from my personal collection. You'll note that nearly all of my feedback ratings are either as a buyer or seller of records and have extensive experience with grading and evaluating them.
My Grading System: My grading doesn't differ from the majority of eBay sellers.  Near Mint is reserved for virtually unplayed records and covers without any splits or material flaws. VG++ is a rating reserved for records or covers that are clearly better than VG+ but have one or two cosmetic issues that don't affect play but prevent it from being near mint. VG+ records and covers are clearly used but very enjoyable. There may be very light hairline scratches that are not feelable, paper scuffs, flaking seams or perhaps minor seam splitting.  VG records are usually heavily played or may have a needle-drop scratch, both of which will add some background noise in the audio. There may be heavier seam splitting or other cosmetic flaws. VG- records have even more background noise, likely many hairline scratches with pops, but it will still play through without skipping. Covers likely have more extensive ringwear and seam splits.  G is a rating I rarely use, except when selling rare records.
Combining Shipping for multiple orders: For US buyers, I will combine shipping if you win multiple auctions, and charge just $1 for each additional record. (So two records would be $3.50 + $1.00 for shipping).  Unfortunately for international buyers, the eBay Global Shipping program does not allow combining multiple auctions into a single package, so there will be no discount.
International shipping offered, but I participate in eBay Global Shipping program for all international buyers.  I apologize if this is an inconvenience.
