Description: Please wait for an invoice. It will have the correct shipping charges. It’s time to start cleaning out 50 years of record buying. As these are .99 per LP (or so) auctions, they are sold as is. These LPs are in new inner sleeves, have new outer sleeves, and have been cleaned, rinsed, and play-graded. You are getting a value far above the starting bid. Further, the play grades follow. They are VERY conservative. See the feedback on used LPs for confirmation of the level of conservative. Check out the other auctions and the LPs in the store.Ask all questions before bidding. Your bid is a contract. Payment must be made within seven (7) days of the end of the auction or a non-paying bidder action will be filed.Are you tired of having a record described as "shiny" or "can't feel the marks" only to have it play G or worse? That's why I play grade these. The grades are as follows (modified Goldmine standards [mine are more rigorous]):NM - almost nothing plays this level - even sealed records!M- - a few ticks or pops per side. Quiet background and vinyl. This rarely happens.VG+ - More than a few ticks or pops per side. Quiet background and vinyl. The noise only rarely makes itself known and, for the most part, doesn't interfere with the music. This is about as good as it gets for any vinyl.VG -The background is no longer quiet. However, for the most part, the music overpowers the noise.VG- - The noise is sometimes intrusive.G+ - The noise is often intrusive, but the music is usually enjoyable.G - Only sometimes is the music enjoyable.F (Fair) - Noisy.P (poor) - Your stylus is at risk!!!All of the open records have been cleaned using VPI fluid on a VPI 17 cleaner with VPI cleaning fluid, rinsed with distilled water, then placed in new poly (HDPE) liners. The covers have been placed in new outer sleeves. Ratings were made using a Basis Debut Gold II (non-vacuum) with a Basis clamp, a Graham 2.2, and a variety of moving coil cartridges through an Audio Advancements (German, Brocksieper, dual mono tube) preamp and a Symphonic Line amp driving Avalon Radians. Though I try to be accurate and consistent, your perception may differ. Before each side was played the stylus was Zero dusted and Stylast treated, the record was brushed clean and Zerostated.The cover condition is listed. Anything rating below VG+ (typically dinged corners drop it from M-) may have explanatory notes - splits, wear, stains, etc. The pictures should help. The LPs will be removed and shipped outside the jackets to prevent (further) ring wear or splitting. As you may deduce, the sound of the LP and the music is more important to this seller than the condition of the cover. If you are equally (or more) interested in the cover condition and the music, email before bidding.Enjoy the music!SHIPPING:Please ignore the ebay shipping calculator.Shipping will be combined for sales within a seven day period starting with the first purchase.The handling fee covers the cost of a new cardboard mailer.These mailers are designed for LPs and are used to protect your LPs!DOMESTIC: $5.00 - MEDIA MAIL, ADD $2.00 FOR EACH ADDITIONAL LP Not insured.
