Ich bin Sammler seit mehr als 50 Jahren und entsprechender Erfahrung. Ich bewerte SUBJEKTIV nach bestem Wissen und Gewissen. Es kann in seltenen Fällen vorkommen, dass ich mich täusche oder dass ihr anderer Ansicht seid. Das liegt aber meistens an falschen oder unrealistichen Erwartungen und Ansprüchen. Die sog. Goldmine Bewertungskriterien sind lediglich Orientierungspunkte. OBJEKTIVITÄT gibt es leider nicht. Alles ist subjektiv.

PINGELFRITZEN sind nicht willkommen ;-) Ihr nervt einfach nur! Schallplatten und CDs sind Gebrauchsgegenstände. Keine Museumsstücke! Entspannt euch einfach und genießt die Musik. Wer sich über Knistern und ein paar Popps auf 40 Jahre alten Platten beschwert sollte woanders suchen. Near Mint bedeutet nicht, dass die Platte ohne Nebengeräusche spielt. Manchmal schon, aber nicht immer. Near Mint bedeutet, dass die Platte keine Kratzer hat, was aber nicht bedeutet, dass sie knisterfrei spielt. Manchmal schon, aber nicht immer. Vinyl ist ein Material, das natürlichen Alterungsprozessen unterliegt. Eine LP von 1974 kann niemals wie neu klingen, selbst wenn sie optimal gelagert wurde. Auch nigelnagelneue Platten knistern. Wer das nicht akzeptieren kann muss entweder auf CDs umsteigen oder er wird unglücklich sterben.

This is not a shop. I am only selling things from my collection. Many items were in my shelves for decades, or at least many years. Few were played often. Some were barely played. But be assured that most of the stuff is well cared for. I guess 90% is still like new or close to that even when I bought most of them second hand.

And I'll give you one good advice: PERFECTION doesn't exist. Records without noise DO NOT EXIST. Records without noise are called CDs... ;-)
Same for covers... Records and covers are items of use NOT museum pieces!
Always keep that in mind. If you want PERFECTION, dream on and complain somewhere else.

DISCOGS SHIPPING POLICIES DO NOT WORK PERFECTLY!!!

My time as contributor for Discogs is over. The database is conterminated by confused, sloppy, clueless users. I cannot change that. I cannot save Discogs. I cannot save the world ;-)

I love all kinds of GOOD music. Almost all records you can find here on RECORDSCOUT are from my private collection.
Now the time has come to spread it all over the world.

BUY WITH CONFIDENCE. MY ITEMS ARE MOSTLY PLAY GRADED!

BUT MINT COLLECTORS BEWARE! EVEN WHEN I GRADE A RECORD NM IT MIGHT PLAY WITH SOME NOISE.
THAT'S THE WAY IT IS WITH VINYL.
I HAVE NEVER HEARD A VINYL RECORD WITHOUT ANY NOISE. THAT'S WHY IT SAYS: "VINYL LIVES!". IT'S A LIVING MATERIAL.
I FIND IT ANNOYING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT NOISES ON 40 YEARS OLD RECORDS.
LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!

Records without noise DO NOT EXIST. Records without noise are called CDs... ;-)

MUSIC IS THE HEALING FORCE OF THE UNIVERSE.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Music was my first love
And it will be my last.
Music of the future
And music of the past.
To live without my music
Would be impossible to do.
In this world of troubles,
My music pulls me through.
(John Miles)

MUSIC IS MY SANCTUARY

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’m a music collector for more than 50 years now.

It all started with SANTANA in 1970... and will never end. Very soon I got into Jazz and lots of different styles: Prog-Rock, Latin, Salsa, Brazilian, African music. So, obviously I'm more into rhythm than anything else...

As my musical tastes evolved, I found myself less and less entangled by genre, or trying to fit music into one category or another. I don’t listen that way. I can hop easily from John Coltrane to Kraftwerk. Music is NOT about boundaries - it’s more about what suits my mood.

Feel free to contact me: [email protected]
I always appreciate to share my passion in music with others.
Be curious! Stay curious!
