CONDITION Descriptions: We base the condition of our records on eBay's Grading System.

• MINT (M): Still sealed, not opened, New Old Stock (NOS).

• NEAR MINT (NM) or EXCELLENT: Looks and plays new.  Virtually no background noises.  Crisp, clean label and, in LPs, no missing items like lyric inserts and posters.  

• VERY GOOD-PLUS (VG+): Looks clean and bright.  May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.  The jacket or sleeve has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. 

• VERY GOOD (VG): There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. 

• GOOD (G): Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, light tape, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing. Records in this condition are those one might purchase to fill a hole in a collection until a better copy comes along.

• FAIR (F) or POOR (P): Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have skip(s). Jacket has rips, stains, water damage, tape. Generally not a good purchase unless an impossibly rare item.
