At BresCollect our aim is to give honest grading of all our records. Due to the amount of stock we have to list, we mostly visually grade our vinyl. All our discs are cleaned before sending out.
We use the following criteria for grading. The record is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition. The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. The record has obviously been played but has only a few light surface marks.Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable. The record has obviously been played many times and has some visible surface marks. The record has visible mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. All our vinyl records are posted in Lil packaging stiff.
A seriously strong, secure & professional package. Records are removed from their cover before posting to avoid seam splits to the outer sleeve. Details must be given of the fault prior to sending the return. Any product you return must be in the same condition you received it and in the original packaging.
