You can find most of our records in our online store, but our brick-and-mortar shop always has plenty of records that aren’t available online. These include, among others, all the latest arrivals in used records, which are restocked daily.
The images of used records in the online store are, practically without exception, taken of the actual copies for sale.
We always strive to clearly mention any flaws, both regarding the condition and any included inserts or similar items. However, inserts, inner sleeves, and similar items that are included are usually not listed separately.
If the color of the record is not specified, it is always black.
If you’re interested in the records in our online store and would like to offer your own for trade, contact us at levyt (a) freshgarbage.fi.
Our gradings
Please note regarding our used records: Not every record for sale has been play-tested, but we carefully inspect all of them visually. Any visible condition issues are always checked, and with more expensive records we strive to be especially thorough.
Below is the grading scale we use. We also use plus and minus signs (+/-) to provide more precise grading.
NEW
Unplayed new record.
MINT (M)
Record: Purchased in as used, but in completely flawless condition.
Sleeve: In perfect condition. Possibly unopened.
EXCELLENT (EX)
Record: A normal, clean used record. May have some very light marks (e.g., from the inner sleeve), but the impact on sound quality is minimal.
Sleeve: No wear at all, or with a minus sign, only very minor typical wear.
VERY GOOD (VG)
Record: The record has been played a lot and has some marks. Still a very good playing copy, but some clicks or surface noise may be present. With a plus sign, only minor issues.
Sleeve: More noticeable wear, a seam split or a small tear. With a plus sign, usually just a single minor issue.
Records with ratings lower than these will not be sold, or the deficiencies will be described in detail.
