Grading

VINYL "Goldmine Standard" grading: COVER FIRST MEDIA SECOND (COVER/MEDIA) SS Still Sealed Never opened. Flawless, with no damage whatsoever. M- Mint Minus Has been opened, but is still flawless with no damage whatsoever. VG+ Very Good Plus Vinyl: May have scuff marks and signs of some wear but will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only "barely detectable" crackles or pops. A slight noise at the begining is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless. Cover: May only have the slightest signs of normal wear. VG Very Good The majority of records (worth selling) fall under this grade. Vinyl: May crackle, pop or make other annoying noises, but only Occasionally,never continuously, and not more loudly than the music being listened to. Cover: Normal used cover wear such as ring wear and split seams. If there is abnormal damage such as tears or markings, but the seller still feels that it qualifies as a "VG", the damage must be described in comments attached to the item. THIS VINYL DEFINITION IS MORE LIKELY GOING TO BE GRADED G+ BY OUR STANDARDS FOR VINYL AND G OR G+ FOR COVERS WITH SEAM SPLITS OR RING WEAR. G+ Good Plus Vinyl: May have continuous crackles, pops, etc... but not so loud as to make the music completely unlistenable or unenjoyable to the casual listener. Cover: More than normal wear and tear. MOST OF THE VINYL WE ARE LISTING WILL BE GRADED LOWER THAN SCALE WITH SPECIAL NOTATIONS OF UNUSUAL DAMAGES THAT MAY AFFECT PLAYING THE PIECE. WE WILL TRY TO GIVE YOU AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION FOR COVERS, AGAIN NORMALLY GRADING LOWER THAN THE ABOVE STANDARD. COMPACT DISC: If it says "new" it is, however, because MITA is a retail outlet and being a small business we do not have the electronic gizmos at the door, so removing the CD is our theft deterrent. Consequently, nearly all the CDs that say "new" will have been opened for this reason. Used CDs will be priced accordingly! Remember we have the equipment to remove the scratches from a CD if needed so anything we sell should be virtually scratch free. We have tried to indicate any problems up front in the description section but may have missed something about a case or inserts. All CDs are guaranteed to play. But if you have a problem with a CD playing, try a different machine before contacting us. Unfortunately, not all CDs play on all machines and if it plays on mine it is a good CD and no refund will be given. CASSETTE: If it says "new" it is, however, because MITA is a retail outlet and being a small business we do not have the electronic gizmo's at the door, so removing the cassette is our theft deterrent. Consequently, nearly all the cassettes that say "new" will have been opened for this reason. Used cassettes will be priced accordingly! Because tape machines have a tendency to gobble tape from time to time we are unable to warranty cassettes. Exchanges are handled on a case by case basis if you communicate your desire we will try to help. If the above policy leaves any doubts, please refer to GEMM's generally accepted Grading Standard
