Records are separated from picture sleeves to prevent seam splits during shipping.

GRADING
All records are graded conservatively, with any defects noted. We are human and any mistake in our grading will be resolved to your satisfaction. My return rate is below 1%.
The grading categories are as follow:
NEAR MINT (M-) Nearly perfect, a record with no obvious signs of wear, a perfect sleeve with no more than the most minor defects and signs of slight handling. In many cases our Near Mint records are New Old Stock and have never been played.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) A very good plus record will show signs that it was played, but was taken good care of by the previous owner. Record surface may show slight signs of wear or minor scuffs that do not affect play. Picture sleeves may have slight light ringwear, lightly turned up corners, etc.
VERY GOOD (VG) A very good record will show groove wear and may have a few vinyl imperfections which will affect the sound. Picture sleeves will show slightly more wear with perhaps a frayed top edge, ring wear or seam breakdown.
GOOD (G) / GOOD PLUS (G+) A good record will show significant wear and /or scratches, but will play through without skipping. It will have considerable surface noise. Picture sleeves may have seam splits at bottom, spines, tape, writing, ring wear, stickers and other defects that will start to overwhelm the item. A good or good plus item is usually acquired to fill a collection until a better copy comes along. So in this record collecting world, GOOD is actually Bad, but acceptable to a degree.
