IMPORTANT NOTE: I CAN ONLY GUARANTEE THE VISUAL CONDITION OF THE RECORDS, NOT THE SOUND QUALITY
This is because: (a) IT WOULD TAKE ME TOO LONG TO PLAY ALL MY RECORDS TO CONFIRM THEIR SOUND QUALITY; (b) WHAT SOUNDS GOOD ON MY Hi-Fi MAY NOT SOUND GOOD ON YOURS; and (c) MY OPINION OF WHAT SOUNDS GOOD FOR A 40-YEAR-OLD RECORDING MAY NOT MATCH YOUR OPINION
HENCE, NO RETURNS BECAUSE OF "POPS", "CRACKLES" OR MUFFLED SOUND;
RETURNS ARE ONLY ACCEPTED IF THE RECORD IS IN A WORSE VISUAL CONDITION THAN I HAVE DESCRIBED.
IF YOU DON'T ACCEPT THIS NECESSARY CONDITION, PLEASE DO NOT BID.
WHEN DESCRIBING RECORDS, MY GRADING SYSTEM IS BASED ON THE RARE RECORD PRICE GUIDE:NEAR MINT: The record is in almost-new condition with barely visible surface marks, e.g. one or two minor scuffs, and no deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items (lyric sheet, poster etc.) are in almost perfect condition.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously 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 cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. I don't sell vinyl in FAIR condition.
IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED, YOU MAY RETURN THE RECORD FOR A FULL REFUND (LESS P&P)
