CD’sand CASSETTES
Asa general rule CD’s and Cassettes either play perfectly – inwhich case they are in Mint condition – or they don’t, inwhich case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable todeteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care shouldbe taken when buying old tapes. CD’s are difficult to gradevisually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while inother cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly.Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the sameway as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plasticcontainers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if theyare broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subjectto the same wear as record sleeves.
