(SEE THE PHOTOS)
Original 16 year-old PULP 12" vinyl LP compilation.
What's cool about this is that it compiled early vinyl that had become expensive and difficult to own/hear, and now this piece is almost 20 years old and has become a semi-expensive collectible!  I don't think that's irony, but it's close.  If anyone can explain irony succinctly in easy-to-understand terms, chip in.  Don't quote that Alanis song or people will probably make fun of you.

Merch insert postcard mailer included.
(Most of the time when you can even find copies on vinyl the original postcard mailer is gone.  Here's a beautiful copy that includes the postcard and looks shiny and new!)

GRADING STANDARDS from GOLDMINE

VERY GOOD PLUS / EXCELLENT:
Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record,

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that don’t affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, so long as repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ Covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable locataion.

VERY GOOD:
Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ Record are more obvious on a VG record. That said, VG records — which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a an NM record — are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because moost of the “big money” goes for more perfect copies. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money.

VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail.

When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise won’t overpower the music otherwise. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.

VG covers will have many signs on human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover, where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious; it may appear on all three sides, thought it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written on it or stamped a price tag on it, too.

GOOD/VERY GOOD MINUS:
Good does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has significant surface noicse and groove wear. The label is worn and exhibits significant ring wear, heavy writing or obvious damage caused by tring to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably.



We are collectors and we want you to get your collectibles in the best condition possible, therefore, unlike many sellers on the great eBay
 WE NEVER REMOVE VINYL FROM ITS SLEEVE AND LEAN IT AGAINST ANYTHING
nor do we
REMOVE THE VINYL RECORDS FROM THEIR SLEEVES & LAY THEM DOWN ON A SURFACE TO DISPLAY THEM.
We're rather amazed when we take the care that we do with the vinyl we sell, and then see another seller make more money selling the exact same item
in worse shape, and their picture shows the record out of its cover and out of its sleeve lying on a surface!  I believe the "problem" is that we try to describe every item
in detail so that you'll know exactly what you're getting.  Many sellers will simply say "excellent" "mint" or "great", having no idea what those terms mean in relation to the Goldmine Grading System.  We tell you exactly what you're getting, and even if it's been to hell and back, we still treat it like it's a piece of your mother.  Sometimes it's the detail that screws things up, I think.  If we were vague, like most sellers, you'd just see the name of the band, the title, and a picture, and you'd buy it.  Oh well.

Many sellers seem to have a disregard for the items they're selling and only care about making their pictures look pretty.  We only care about the pieces we sell.  And you.  So you'll see that the records are displayed IN THEIR ORIGINAL SLEEVES, with just a hint of the vinyl showing so that you can see what color they are.  If you want to see the vinyl pulled from its sleeve and resting on a dusty surface, look at someone else's auction or blog and then come back to our page and buy our copy in PERFECT SHAPE.

We will ship this ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. 

ORDERS OVERSEAS, ESPECIALLY TO EUROPE (AND ESPECIALLY ESPECIALLY GERMANY) ARE SOMETIMES TAKING A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF TIME.  SOME VINYL IS TAKING UP TO A MONTH TO ARRIVE.  IF YOU CAN TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT AS A POSSIBILITY, GO AHEAD AND BID. Other countries currently taking a long time to deliver the mail include Spain, The Ukraine and anything related to the Russian Federation and anyone who falls into the shadow of what has been referred to as Russia, the former U.S.S.R. etc. Just please, if you get all the way down here to the bottom and pay attention to the small print, take into account that is is NOT our fault that packages are taking up to and sometimes over a month to get to certain addresses in the Russian Federation, Italy, Germany, and especially Eastern European locations. We have considered many times NOT SELLING to your part of the world, but it seems to be so starved for new music, and we want to be able to share in the wealth of music that we have here, so we're trying to keep our relationship a happy one. Consider this when you haven't received your records within 3 weeks and you are writing us a nasty letter or considering an "unsent merchandise strike" or whatever they are called. Simply contact us, and we will tell you when your package was mailed, will do our best to track it for you and/or send you a replacement copy of what you won and paid for. If all of this fails, we will GLADLY refund your money. We absolutely have no history of ripping anyone off, and are doing our best to keep the flow of music working from the Eastern seaboard of the United States to the more tightly-reined countries in your part of the world! We WANT YOU to hear rare music!! Thank you, my friend! Johnny, at Reptilian.
