A reserve price is the minimum price the seller will accept. This price is hidden from bidders. To win, a bidder must have the highest bid and have met or exceeded the reserve price.
As rare record specialists since 1974, we've built a reputation for our reliability, grading accuracy and the high quality of our inventory. That said, Jamaican records can be a fright when compared to the mint store stock we frequently offer. In some cases, Bob had graded these and we're finding that his VG- is typically our G+. I suspect our G+ is even frequently other's VG grade! Our grading here is absolute...we're not making accomodations such as, 'considering it's Jamaican, it's VG+'! In every case, we're listing both a visual AND audial grade and as always, we guarantee what we sell.
Serious collectors will want to watch for our weekly auctions of rare Reggae / Ska / Rocksteady.
* Note: Buyers with feedback of 2 or lower, please make arrangements with us before placing bids.

Record Grading
Each entry indicates
reference number, speed (LP/45), Artist, Title, Label, Label #, Condition,
comments and price. All prices are in US dollars.
Unless noted, every record is an original
issue for the label and catalog number given. Heres a brief explanation of my
grading system, followed by an overview of abbreviations you will encounter...
SS Still Sealed - in
factory-fresh condition
M Mint - I don't use
this grade.
M- Mint Minus - a
near perfect, probably unplayed record
VG+ Very Good Plus
close to like new with only superficial signs of use that dont affect
play. Only well cared for records will grade out to VG+. Will satisfy all
but the most demanding collector.
VG Very Good - a used,
reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility
of light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still
quite nice.
VG- Very Good Minus -
significant wear and marks and usually quite noticeable surface noise.
G+ Good Plus. In the
record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're
talking about beat-up records.
