Photos shown here are of the actual item for sale. Not stock photos.  All vinyl records are visually graded.  I have been grading vinyl records since 1976, and I have strict standards.

Please note this is the grading system I use:

EX – Excellent, basically like new. Might have a light paper scuff that will not affect anything. I remember pulling a record out of its sleeve and finding a few this way back in the day. NO scratches. No digs.

VG- Very Good. Light marks, light use. Nothing that should cause issues playing. Could have a few marks on the label.

G – Good – A record that is well played and enjoyed. Average find.  Light marks, might have gray grooves. Label will show wear.

F- Fair.  Played a lot. More inclined to have a few gouges. Deeper marks. Graying grooves. I usually do not sell something this grade unless it is very rare.

P- Poor. Wall hanger.

Please note I do not accept returns on vinyl records unless there is proof the item was totally misrepresented.

Albums and 45s are shipped in normal cardboard mailing boxes for records.  78rpm records are shipped in a more padded box.
