GRADING

All items are graded visually.  We try hard to be conservative when grading, we want you to be pleasantly surprised when you get your records.  That said, we are human, and if you think our grading is off, contact us.

Our background in grading collectibles goes back over 30 years, but is mostly in other fields.  For that reason, our grading system may look a little different to what you are used to (the Goldmine system, for instance).

We grade using the following terms:

NEW - Factory sealed records.  If you open a factory sealed record to play and it has a manufacturing defect (rare, but it happens), please remember there is no way we could've known that as we do not open sealed records to inspect them for obvious reasons.

NM - Near Mint - the highest grade we will give anything.  We don't believe there are truly MINT by definition records.  Any factors that prevent the sleeve or vinyl from being mint will be noted in the listing.  If it reads NM and has no further info, expect a record that is as good as new, but not sealed.

M- Mint Minus - almost our top grade, but maybe with a couple small issues

VF - Very Fine - maybe the vinyl has a few marks from going in and out of the sleeve, or there is a corner bend.

F - Fine - vinyl might look a little dull, but no visible scratches or defects, sleeve may have more than a few small defects

VG - Very Good - record shows wear but is expected to play through, with some background noise.  If there is a small scratch, this will be noted.  Sleeve has multiple issues, which will be noted.

FINALLY, REMEMBER:  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but proof is in the pictures.  We have photos in all the listings, but if there are specific questions, please ask & we will do our best to resolve!

PACKAGING FOR SHIPPING

We use new professional Uline cardboard mailers with padding to ship your records.  That said, record mailers are tight and if the corners get banged up in shipping, so do the corners of your records.  For an additional fee, we offer an alternative packaging option, whereby we pack your records in the Uline mailers described above, and those are wrapped in padding and packed inside a larger box.  If you are interested in this option, please inquire before you pay and we'll get you a quote.

Finally, buyers have differing opinions about the best way to ship records; in particular whether the records should be removed from the outer sleeves when they are mailed.  We get an equal amount of requests to ship in and out of sleeves.  As sleeves were designed to protect records, our default is to ship the records inside them.  Some buyers believe shipping the albums in the sleeves can cause them to split.  We have no bias and are happy to accomodate your preference.  If you want records to be removed from sleeves before we ship, JUST SAY SO.  The best place to do this is in the messages section of your PayPal payment.  If you don't express a preference, we will ship them in the sleeves.  NO WHINING IF YOU DON'T SPECIFY!

OUR HOURS:  We usually work a normal 5 day week, Monday-Friday, 9:30 to 5:30.  If we are closed during normal business hours, you will see a notice on our listings page (usually by the listing title).  We will respond to all e-mails, but typically answers will take 24 hours to arrive.  Do not expect a response after hours or during the weekends or holidays.

SHIPPING METHODS: We use USPS for most shipments. In some cases we may use UPS instead, especially if the package is large or oversized, so don't take the shipping method listed as gospel - your purchase could be sent by either carrier, but the majority go by USPS.
