I have had to return a couple of items to Euclid in the past due to overgrading…

I would concur with the doubt about the Donaldson cover grade, no way that’s VG+. VG yes, no way sticker tears on the front will pass the test. I am surprised at that from that seller? but the photo does speaks for its self.

…Love the cover on 1501. Definitely a great price for this one so far. Too bad about the condition on that Lou Donaldson 1545… Sadly it isn’t a first pressing, as it doesn’t have the NY23 label on both sides. Despite the grading, at least the photos don’t try to hid any of the flaws. I have bought a great deal of Jazz LP’s from Euclid over the years, and never been disappointed. They are definitely one of the more reputable sellers out there for the most part.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

Two 5″ seam splits and paper loss on the front still merits a VG+? From Euclid? Looks like I need to start grading my own items more liberally if that’s the case.

That Lou Donaldson looks pretty rough, reputable seller.. but I wouldn’t consider that cover as a VG+ at all.

I have 1501 and 1502, both first pressings. And it may be just me, but these two seem to pop up much more often than, for instance, the other ones that feature in this post today. And both the Paul Chambers and Lou Donaldson are on my wish list.
