For the last couple of years I've been back to buying vynil and the pleasure of going through the records pulling the record out to inspect etc.
I prefer brick and mortar second hand shops and small announces where I meet the seller and can inspect the record and have a small chat.
This summer I found two Gentle Giant records in a small town on the French seaside and have actually become prog buddy with the seller.
Anyway I have ordered recently two records on Discogs.
Gentle Giant : In A Glass House , rather a good surprise , slightly better then the Very Good rating.
And Genesis : Selling England /German gatefold which was rated VG+ for the record and the cover, now the record was VG+ but the cover was quite dirty and had a rather big space where the yellow print was ripped off on the side. I was quite disappointed, but kept it because the record was in such a good shape. The seller got a 99% satisfaction rate, so I wondered if my expectations of VG+ were to high.
My question : do you have experience of discrepancies between the Discogs ratings and what you got?
