Best Practices

• •Emphasize Expertise: Always provide accurate and detailed information about records (pressing, condition, notable features). Use terminology understood by collectors.
• •Show, Don't Just Tell Passion: Let enthusiasm for music and records shine through in descriptions and interactions, but avoid excessive hype. Focus on the music's or record's intrinsic value.
• •Maintain Transparency in Grading and Condition: Consistently use a recognized grading standard (like Goldmine) and be upfront about any flaws. This builds trust.
• •Collector-Centric Language: Use language that resonates with serious collectors (e.g., "grail," "first pressing," "deadwax info," "out of print").
• •Responsive and Professional Communication: Answer inquiries promptly and courteously, whether on Instagram DMs or Discogs messages, reinforcing reliability.
