 CHICAGO TRANSIT AUTHORITY  Chicago Transit Authority I  RECORD LP GP 8  M- SOUND 1971 These albums are sounding MORE MINT for song play on  this copy than even a M- sound.
I like to point out  small stuff, any stuff---ANYTHING affiliated  with sound so you know what the stylus will put  out for sound when you're playing it, these copies have very lite/lite  surface wear, side 2 has a strike mark that only produces 8 VERY  LITE taps and the rest of the sound is MINT sound for both records.
All records are $4.00 for the 1st record and $1.00 for each additional record when bundling for combined shipping cost.
I HOLD OUT FOR 3 DAYS AFTER AUCTION RECORDS CLOSE,  If you are interested in OTHER records that haven't  closed yet and you've won an auction record already then I  hold out to combine shipping for 3 days only and after that I'll adjust  the eBay invoice and send it with the discount. (PLEASE don't pay before adjusting the invoice 1st). Thank you.
VERY critical record grader here, listening to both sides  with headphones on start to finish to bring you the details  of the records sound before selling --Truthfully I  believe in honesty being the best policy so you're not surprised or  disappointed upon arrival--records may be a slight bit linty.

 MINT     this record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws what so ever. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains. SEALED or opened.

 NM, M-     this record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaws if any.

 EX, EX+    this record is NM/NM+ sounding through most of the record and light crackle or random record snaps -(no skips there AT ALL), still sounding very clean through most of the record.

 VG+     minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a few scuffs with no deep pops that go for a long length of time--a bit loved and played harder than EX.

 VG    record shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye, maybe even a blemish under the surface of the vinyl not effecting sound . If  the flaws/blemish don't cause any surface noise, the vinyl can still make the VG+ grade. 

 GOOD     A good record will look very well played, dull. However a Good record should still play. It will have distracting surface noise. Such as crackle that is continuous or some hiss.  Will also  have some loss of dynamics caused from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any obtrusively snaps or repeated clicks, caused by deeper scratches.
