CONDITION> MINT= This should mean a record that has never been played, but as I check all records before they are listed, MINT in this case means played once or twice with no blemishes whatsoever. Please note, although the record may be mint the cover may not be. Please see other information. EXCELLENT= Has obviously been played but there are no scuffs or scratches and the record plays fine with no hiss or clicks. On rare occasions there may be one scratch covering one of the tracks but the record is not bad enough to describe as good or very good. This will be detailed in the description. VERY GOOD= As above, but one or two blemishes, perhaps multiple visible scratches that do not affect play too much and do not cause the stylus to jump, and/or hiss/crackle in quieter passages. GOOD= Plays well but may have scuff marks, a needle scratch where the stylus has been dropped on the surface, or multiple fine scratches. But will play through the whole record with skipping and the sound quality remains good. OTHER. I do not sell records in worse condition than the above, - unless they are particularly rare and have appeal to collectors of a particular artist or genre. In this case I give a full description in DETAILS.
