Quality of Records & Grading

 

yas  U.K.

 

 

We, at YAS U.K., aim to hold and provide rare & collectable 乫60s,乫70s rock and pops vinyl records of utmost quality especially first or early pressing vinyls.

 

Keeping in mind the records, with which we are dealing, were pressed         approximately 30 to 40 years ago, it is almost impossible to find one in a 'perfect' condition now.

If we discard the 乪conditions乫 of records from our checklist, it may not be as difficult a task to search for rare vintage ones; but since we focus primarily on records that would bring us pleasure to our experience of listening to music, 乪sound quality乫 becomes our main concern.

 

Products marked 乪N.O.S乫 stands for 乪New Old Stock乫, most of which have probably been kept in the warehouse for long, etc; some covers may however show signs of slight wear.   We intend to deal with as many N.O.S records as possible, but as mentioned earlier, this is becoming more and more demanding.

 

Turning attention to second-hand LPs, our top priority, again, will be the surface quality of the vinyl.  Record covers may show some damage, but not to an extent that is severely worn out or unattainable.     

 

Condition – Grading

 

Two gradings in our list are for Cover / Vinyl, rated between 乪G乫 and 乪M乫, 乪Good乫 and 乪Mint乫 accordingly.
