LP Grading Vinyl: Near Mint Cover: Good Inner: Original Excellent

ALL VINYL WILL BE WELL PACKED FOR SAFE TRANSIT IN RECORD MAILER WITH CARDBOARD STIFFENERS WITH EXTRA ADDED CARDBOARD OUTER IF NEEDED. 
I SEPARATE THE INNER SLEEVE WITH LP FROM THE OUTER SLEEVE TO AVOID ANY SPLITS.
ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY GRADED UNDER A STRONG LIGHT SOURCE, UNLESS MENTIONED OTHERWISE.
I ONLY USE PHOTOS OF THE ACTUAL ITEM FOR SALE, WITH NO CROPPING OF IMAGE TO HIDE ANY DEFECTS OR BLEMISHES.
IT WILL BE GRADED HONESTLY AND ACCURATELY AS I WANT YOU TO BE 100% SATISFIED WITH YOUR PURCHASE.
WE ARE ALL HUMAN AND WHEN A GENUINE MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE, AS WHEN AN ITEM IS NOT AS DESCRIBED, I WILL OF COURSE REFUND YOU IN FULL AND OFFER MY SINCERE APPOLOGIES.

MY RECORDS ARE NOT PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED PRIOR TO DISPATCH BUT WOULD MOST LIKELY BENEFIT FROM IT AS TICKS, CRACKLES AND POPS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTH VINTAGE AND NEW RECORDS, MAY BE PRESENT, EVEN IF THEY LOOK ALMOST PERFECT.

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
