runout side 1; 37778-1 runout side 2; 37779-1
I rate my albums based on visual and playback. A separate rating is added for album sleeve. I cannot possibly duplicate your turntable so I try to be very conservative and "under-rate" my records but I can be wrong...

For your protection I offer a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE PLUS I PAY ALL YOUR SHIPPING (BOTH WAYS) IF YOU ARE NOT 100% SATISIFIED WITH YOUR PURCHASE. To QUALIFY FOR FREE RETURN SHIPPING YOU MUST NOTIFY ME OF INTENT TO RETURN AND POSTMARK RETURN WITHIN 5 BUSINESS DAYS OF RECEIPT. Any returns after the first five days will certainly be accepted but I cannot pay for your shipping (if its after the five day period). Also please note: I have a cat so be aware if you are allergic and also know you may get a little pet hair on your vinyl. Also, I DO NOT CLEAN MY RECORDS! You will receive albums just like they were taken off the shelf, thus there may be a little dust or occasionally even a smudge or two (nothing more). I am proud of my record collection and figure the more I "touch" them the more chance to cause damage so I leave them alone. I leave any cleaning to you.
Please note: I cannot possibly listen to all my albums (again) so I do my best to remember what they sounded like (not too long ago) and visually evaluate. It is possible that a -M record VG+ and VG records may have a pop or two and maybe even a crackle, although it would be highly unlikely in a record I grade as -M or even VG+ so please keep this in mind. I do my best-but that's why I offer a NO QUESTIONS ASKED MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE just in case I get it wrong. I want you to be happy. Grading records is close to impossible really-thus my very liberal return policy. Of course all returns must be as sold showing no damage and in original sleeves, etc. (I photograph each album and sleeve carefully-so if you need detailed photos please ask.
Mint (M)
I do not grade any of my albums "mint" unless they are factory sealed. -Mint (-M) This album is as close to a sealed record as you can get. It may have a little dust or pet hair but has flawless-or close to flawless-playback. There will be no pops or crackles and visually the record and sleeve will be virtually "like new".SLEEVE CONDITION: Art is intact and bright. No seam splits, tears, or dinged corners, No wear to spine and has all original artwork, etc. Record and Jacket appear virtually new. Very Good plus (VG+) The condition of an album graded Very Good will show some signs of use. There may be superficial scratches (that do not affect playback) and there may be extremely light surface noise between tracks or elsewhere. The album should sound virtually noise-free but there may be minor sounds.
SLEEVE CONDITION: Moderate ring wear, 25% or less wear to spine (no splits or tears. corners may have up to two (2) minor bends or dings. Very Good (VG) This album will have some scratches and/or other blemishes, but will play without skipping. MOST of my VG albums would probably grade a VG+ but it is better to er on the side of caution so I grade almost all records VG. There may also be light surface noise and minimal cracks or pops may also be present.
SLEEVE CONDITION: Moderate ring wear, approximately 50% or less wear to spine (no splits or tears. corners may have more than two (2) minor to moderate bends or dings. Fair (F) A record that may have obvious wear/scratches and/or multiple pops and/or crackles. Cover may be in fair condition but overall the listening experience is hampered by the above problems on-at least-one or more tracks. (The only time I'd sell a record that has these problems is if it's incredibly rare and/or has a collectable dust-jacket.
Ships within 24 hours of payment. All records are securely packed to prevent damage in shipment.
