*** PLEASE SEE MY RATING/GRADING CRITERIA BELOW

******BECAUSE I WANT TO MAINTAIN GOOD RELATIONS WITH EBAY ON THEIR SELLER SCOREBOARD,I WILL USUALLY UNDER GRADE MOST 45'S SO EVEN IF A TUNE IS VG++,I WILL USUALLY JUST GRADE IT AS VERY VERY STRONG VG+



****I DO MY BEST TO GRADE 45'S AND LP'S THAT I LIST,HOWEVER SOMETIMES YOU MAY QUESTION SOMETHING THAT YOU FEEL I MAY HAS MISSED OR MISREPRESENTED, SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE E-MAIL ME WITH ANY PROBLEMS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO CORRECT ANYTHING I CAN--IF YOU ARE SATISFIED WITH MY MERCHANDISE,PLEASE LEAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND THIS NOW IS SO IMPORTANT FOR SELLER'S------PLEASE FILL IN THE 5 CATEGORY'S RELATING TO ITEM DESCRIPTION,COMMUNICATION ETC. THANKS AGAIN SO MUCH

GUIDES FOR MY GRADING

NEAR MINT=ALMOST PERFECT, MAYBE A LIGHT "LINE" OR TWO BUT PLAYS EXCELLENT

VG++=JUST A LITTLE BELOW NEAR MINT,MAYBE THE VERY SLIGHTEST OF BACKGROUND SOUND

VERY VERY STRONG VG+==BASICALLY JUST THE SAME AS VG++ BUT MAY HAVE SOME SCUFFS OR PAPER "LINES" BUT PLAYS ALMOST AS WELL AS VG++ WITH MAYBE A VERY VERY SLIGHT BACKGROUND SOUND,ESPECIALLY IN THE QUIET PARTS

VERY STRONG VG+=GREAT SOUND WITH JUST A HINT OF SOME BACKGROUND SOUND BUT NEVER DISTRACTING FROM THE SOUND QUALITY

STRONG VG+=MORE BACKGROUND SOUND BUT NOTHING THAT IS OVER POWERING OR DISTRACTING

VG+=USUALLY MORE BACKGROUND SOUND AND MAY PLAY BETTER ON A DIFFERENT PLAYER

VG=USUALLY I DON'T DEAL WITH THESE UNLESS IT'S A HIGHLY COLLECTABLE OR RARER 45

"LINES" I CONSIDER A 45 TO HAVE WHAT I CALL "LINES" MARKINGS NOT ANYWHERE INTO THE GROOVES OR THAT CAN BE FELT WITH YOUR FINGERNAIL

*********** ALL MY 45'S AND LP'S ARE ALWAYS SENT IN EITHER THE ORIGINAL OR A GENERIC PAPER OR PLASTIC SLEEVE

****PLEASE NOTE: I WILL TRY TO GRADE THESE 45'S AS BEST I CAN, THAT IS WHY YOU WILL SELDOM SEE A NEAR MINT AND NEVER A MINT GRADING FROM ME.
