I know not of a reliable and efficient method.

The industry is in a mess trying to keep up with demand with limited old presses.

I'll add I've had huge issues with new pressings. Lucinda Wllliams 'Dust' first copy warped, second copy also warped. Got refund and to keep both. Fortunately they just about play ok.
Loads of Blue Note Tone Poet and Classic series pop and crackle away. Likewise, other stuff.
Does put me off buying vinyl. And CD is way cheaper. Real pain to have to post back returns.
On the plus side, with my hearing most defects are only noticeable via headphones, fine through speakers. I've also found switching to a Sumiko Moonstone from an Ortofon OM30 has improved matters by >50%.
If item is faulty seller pays for return postage.If the product is faulty then return it for a refund, presume that will cost postage?
Even in the 70s, I returned quite a few records, mostly because of scratches. I'm surprised that turntable manufacturers use scratched records on demos. I heard 3 tracks on promo video, 2 were scratched, 1 quite badly.
I think I'm too fussy for vinyl.
