BELOW I HAVE POSTED THE GRADING SYSTEM I USE FOR ALL MY RECORDS:
SEALED: Sealed at factory and never opened. Vinyl is assumed to be mint, but
cannot be sure until opening.
NM: When I grade something near mint, you know the only thing that isn't
perfect about it is that someone actually opened it. There could be a light
scuff mark or two from taking it out of the sleeve. The jacket will look like
new.
VG++: These LPs appear not to have been played more than once or twice. You can
expect to see scuffs or other insignificant surface marks very minor that
will have no effect whatsoever on the sound of the recording. Jacket will show
very slight, just beginning ring wear. Maybe a little wear in the corners.
VG+: Records in this condition have obviously been played a few times, though
they have been well taken care of. You can expect to see a few light marks, but
they should have a minimal effect, if any at all, on the sound of the
recording. Jacket will very likely show noticeble ring and edge wear and maybe
one or two other minor flaws. Anything more will be noted.
VG: These albums have been played quite a few times and although not abused you
will see and hear signs of use. But, the music will dominate your listening
experience and you shouldn't be overwhelmed by the various vinyl nuances, such
as tics, pops, crackles and hisses. You should still be able to sit back and
fully enjoy listening to an album in this condition.
Jacket will have a number of flaws, such as heavy ring and seam wear, writing,
small seam splits, stickers, etc.
G: I try not to go here, but if it's a rare or exceptionally great piece of
music that must be heard, then I'll offer it. But the noise will be very
noticeable, and you'll want to find a better copy. Still, the record will be
fully playable, and you should enjoy it because it's such wonderful music.
Jackets in this condition will have large seam splits, large writing, paper
tears, or water damage. But it will still be fully capable of protecting the
album inside.
F: I'll never go here on both the vinyl and jacket. This would have to be a
case where the vinyl was playable with a bad jacket OR a real special jacket
with the record not of much use. You won't see this very often!
