    Obsessive fans of cult bands don't really use discogs, in my experience.  Prices still go for higher on eBay.  For buying, it's mostly G+/VG stuff being graded as NM / Excellent or VG+++++, or the old "good condition for it's age" , which means it's survived being a clock, nailed on a diner wall, frisbie without breaking, and possibly lived in a spider nest in the attic.

    crazy ass germans. but seriously, a VG+ grading for corner dings is accurate. if the kraut wasn't ok with a VG+ jacket, then he shouldn't have purchased a record listed with a VG+ jacket.

    Corner dings is a millennial entitlement thing. 
     
    Buy a record that is over 20 years old and there's a great chance it's in horrible shape. People bought records to listen to with no intention of reselling. People hung the liner notes on walls and wrote their name on the covers and labels. Many of these records were simply thrown out when a kid moved out, switched to cds/mp3s, literally wore out the record, or switched musical tastes.

    This reminds me of a Tool bootleg I sold to a guy on eBay. Graded it as VG+ because of corner dings. A german guy won the auction about 2/3rd what I paid, so it was a loss from the get-go, but then he had the audacity to raise a dispute/refund because my photos didn't show how bad the corner dings were claimed the listing misleading.  (they weren't, that's why you couldn't see them without an effing zoom lens) 
     
    I told him the grading reflected minor dings but he wouldn't budge. Never had a buyer dispute raised in my life, I pride myself on accurate gradings. Gave him a discount and called it a day.  But next time I'm not putting up with that baloney.

    They weren't remasters, they were flat CD transfers. I went out on a limb and ordered this set in the hope of good mastering....will post my findings after listening.
