Question lang. Does play grading mean playing the entire record? That could take up to an hour of self listening ( not too pleasant if one does not like the record ). And also, do we grade how many ticks or pops for one song? There could be ten songs in an LP. The other way is to play grade the first minute of the song, but ticks could still happen in the next few minutes of the cut.
While I find no problem with play grading per se, this is just to fine tune the process.

Philip- Unfortunately, this means playgrading BOTH sides. I know it can be tedious, but bear in mind WS does not EARN anything from your sales. This is a courtesy extended by WS to it's fellow members. The moderators are hear to protect the interests of all members.
You just have to mention if the whole side plays quiet, plays with an occasional tick/pop, noisy on this track and so forth. This will help ensure a more accurate grading. Just have a cup of coffee while listening.

I fully understand your predicament. You'll have to wait till they arrive. SEALED LPs are not included, of course.
