The Records have been listened to in full at least once and have been Pro Cleaned
I only grade mint if the record is brand new and unplayed.
I send all records in a Brand New Inner Sleeve, a Brand New Poly Outer Sleeve, and use a Strong Professional Cardboard Mailer with 2 cardboard stiffeners, the package is placed into a Poly Mailing Bag for extra protection.
*I wont be combining postage with this bundle, if you buy any of my other items, it will have to be sent separately Postage for this bundle is £4.19*
All albums are from my personal collection.
I have tried to be as transparent as possible and grade the Record as accurately as possible, the Grading Guidelines are listed below.
Excellent
The record shows some sign of being played, there is very little lessening in sound quality.
The sleeves might have slight wear and or creasing.
Very Good +
The record may show slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratching that do not affect the sound, slight warps that don’t affect the sound are OK, there may be some very light ringwear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.
Very Good + sleeves should only have minor wear and may have some defacing such as cut-out marking.
Very Good
Records will have surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially during quieter moments and during a song’s intro and ending, but the noise will not overpower the music.
The record has been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the sleeves, without major defects is acceptable.
Good
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated , perhaps with some distortion and scratches, the sleeve will suffer from folding, scuffling of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
