*     Multi-disc sets have the disc quantity following the catalogue number in ( ).

*     We have used a four tier grading system: A(excellent), B(good), C(satisfactory), D(poor). The C grade represents
       records in fair condition, not having significant damage. All recordings are assumed C or better unless noted.
       Most recordings are optically graded and spot checked so a skip can sneak by. If you're not satisfied with you
       purchase let us know and we'll arrange for a refund or adjustment.

*    We only grade the discs, but will comment on the sleeves if significant damage.  We ignore most splits and small smudges, abrasions.

*    (1SO) means "one side only."   

*    Stereo records are indicated by an asterisk preceding the label info.

*    In the condition area, and following the condition letter, designations like "1S" or CFBR, etc., refer to record stamper letters in the label area.
