David & Malen's Treasures We search high and low - yard sales, estate sales, antique shops, and more - to find treasures we can bring to our customers. We like repeat customers, so honesty and accuracy are important to us. Here on MusicStack we will be offering the thousand of vinyl records we have collected. ALL of our records are in stock. Every record (unless still sealed) is visually rated using the Goldmine standards, AND play-rated in detail, AFTER a complete cleaning using a high-tech cleaning machine.

Grading Unless still sealed, all our used records are first visually inspected and hand- cleaned if any heavily soiled or fingerprinted areas are found. The record is then cleaned automatically using the Glass Audio Desk Systeme Ultrasonic Vinyl Cleaner (a $4K automated system using cleaning fluid, ultrasonics, microfiber brushes, and powerful fans), from 1 to 5 times (depending on the level of dirt). Both sides of the record are then played completely through to verify playability, and to take note of any problems or flaws. We conservatively rate the condition of the record using the Goldmine Vinyl Rating Guide (See below) for the vinyl and cover. Our condition descriptions will include the Goldmine rating and our observations of any static, background hiss, etc. If the inner sleeve is missing or too damaged for use, we replace it with an anti-static plastic sleeve. If the album cover is missing, we include a generic cover with 8 ½ X 11 labels attached that have been printed with high- resolution photos of the album cover front and back (if these photos can be found and downloaded). If our products are brand new in original sealed packaging (LPs and books), we simply will give the item a rating of Still Sealed (SS). For used records we use the Goldmine Vinyl Rating Guide, described as follows (separate ratings for the vinyl and the cover): Mint (M) - Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played. Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all (NOTE: we do not use this grade). Near Mint (NM or M-) - A nearly perfect record. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. Very Good Plus (VG+) - A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. Very Good (VG) - Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them. Good (G), Good Plus (G+) - Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. Poor (P), Fair (F) - The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. NOTE! We do not sell records in this condition. Return Policy
