Our Grading & Packaging Standards – Buy with Confidence!

At our store, we take pride in offering accurately graded records and cassettes and other vintage media for collectors and music lovers alike. With decades of experience, we grade conservatively to ensure you receive items in the condition you expect.

Grading Scale

We follow a detailed grading system:

• NM (Near Mint) – A nearly perfect copy.
• VG++ (Very Good Plus Plus), VG+ (Very Good Plus) – Well-preserved, only minor signs of handling.
• VG (Very Good), VG- (Very Good Minus) – Some wear, but still a solid listening experience.
• G (Good), P (Poor) – Considerable wear or flaws, yet still collectible.

We never use the “Mint” grade, even if factory sealed, ensuring honesty in our assessments.

Records & Cassettes

Unless otherwise noted, our vinyl is graded visually—not play-graded.

• Label flaws (writing, stickers, damage) will be separately noted in each listing.

Covers & Enclosures

• Cover grading applies to the front and back surface only—not cut corners, stickers, or seam splits, which will be noted separately.
• Important enclosures (posters, lyric sheets, pictures, etc.) are documented with condition details.

Carefully Packaged for Safe Delivery

We take shipping seriously!

• Albums and cassettes are wrapped in bubble wrap and secured in sturdy cardboard for optimal protection.
• Any reflections in product photos come from the shrink wrap or protective plastic sleeve that the record is stored in.

Shop confidently knowing we prioritize accuracy, quality, and secure packaging for every item we sell. Happy collecting!
