LP Information

Covers are not graded.  However, any condition which the pictures might not show, such as seam splits, will be stated. 

Some album covers are very glossy and can partially reflect photo lights. (Archiv, Telefunken, DG, etc).  A perceived cover defect may not actually exist because of this.  Please ask if you have any questions.

All records are checked for excessive warpage and are "spot-played" on a Pro-Ject Carbon Debut turntable with an Ortofon "Red" cartridge to be sure the record has not been played with a damaged stylus.

If something has been overlooked that may be important to you after you receive the record, please allow us to discuss it.  We always want you to feel that you received a fair deal.  There is a 14-day return guarantee in the case of a significant defect not reported.

10- and 12-inch 33 rpm records are carefully cleaned with a Nitty Gritty Vacuum Record Cleaner using distilled water before shipping.   This is considered only a 'basic' cleaning and your record may require further attention.
