All LPs are carefully packed for their journey to you.

Since I am not really a collector, my rating system is based on the quality of the LP itself, as well as the condition of all the materials.

If the record plays well with no skipping and a minimum of snap,crackle, and pop then it  is considered to be in at least good condition.

Surface scratches that don't effect playability are not considered defects in this context.

Of course through the additional comments and photos I want to depict all the materials clearly, so you know exactly what you are getting.

I take care of them and although from a variety of sources the ones for sale meet a certain standard. Primarily they must play well.

I can also provide a hi-quality musical sample of any given recording if you'd like.

A brief note about myself and these offering: I collect music. All styles and periods, almost very music fan can find something to listen to here.

Mostly I accumulate musical recordings, they are piled up everywhere.

In an effort to share them, and clear up some space, likely to be filled with more music, they are available on auction and for sale here.

Happy listening! Check back often for new listings! And thanks for looking!
