Shipping We ship all orders within 3 business days, excluding extenuating circumstances (with notice to the buyer), and we utilize Whiplash mailers for the ultimate in shipping protection of 12" LPs. PLEASE NOTE: We visually (and conservatively) grade each record; if in doubt, we will clean ultrasonically and test play for accuracy. We understand that the grading system is very subjective, but we try to follow Goldmine guidelines. Ask if you have questions - we're happy to supply additional images: MINT: only used for sealed LP's as "assumed Mint." Sealed LP's are purchased at your risk. We are not able to confirm the content of the LP, as it is sealed. If you open it - it is no longer in the same condition as it was sold and cannot be returned.NEAR MINT: record looks like it was opened for the first time. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any 'spindle marks.' Cover: same, no visual imperfections. Shiny, with no visible defects. May have original promotional stickers. VG+ : some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Minor signs of handling such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. Cover: There may be some light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Should have only minor wear; it might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long). Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking or a small name inscribed. VG: Groove wear is evident, as are light scratches that can be felt with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has some surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and ending; however, the noise will not otherwise overpower the music. Covers: will have obvious signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious, though not overwhelming. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won't be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written on it or stamped a price tag on it, too. Good (G), Good Plus (G+): we will not offer LP's in this condition, unless it is clearly marked in the item description- and only then due to the scarcity of the title in the marketplace.
