Each records condition is listed below. All my records are professionally cleaned and restored utilizing the Disc Doctor's Miracle Restoration method on a VPI after spending 3 minutes in an ultrasonic cleaner to remove all finger oils that you thought were part of the record and all the micro dust in important grooving
. The result is even though the heavy scuffs and all varieties of scratches are all still there, the sound that the record will produce is restored to the highest sound experience for each appropriate grading.
Vinyl Grades: Strong VG (to) VG+ copy  Light scuffing (see pics)

(**IMPORTANT-- SEE GRADING SCALE BELOW DESCRIPTION). * CLEANED / RESTORED UTILIZING A VPI RECORD CLEANER.
* Ultrasonically Cleaned Utilizing a VPI using Disc Doctors restoration method. * Indubitably makes all the difference increasing record quality:   > Cleans all grooves deeply with specific restoration chemicals designed for vinyl. > Removes all oils and contaminants from previous handling. > Music depth is brought back from even years of neglect. **IMPORTANT > GRADING SCALE:  My grading is conservative (subjected to opinion) for your benefit, not mine. If you feel that I have erred > please contact me for resolution to your satisfaction. Up to and including 100% money back guaranteed (see below for criteria). (-) is used if it is at lower end of specific category.  (++) is used if it is at higher end of specific category. Please note: I may use two grades for a record: eg VG (to) VG+ This means that each side has a variation (I am not side specific).
M (Mint): Never been played or item still sealed. Cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster (ie contents) are in sealed condition (which exterior can vary - see description)

NM (Near Mint): In brand new condition with nominal surface marks and no deterioration in sound quality. Cover and contents have been opened and are nearly close to perfect.

Ex (Excellent): Shows some signs of being played, light marks, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Cover and contents might have slight wear and /or nominal creasing.

VG+ (Very Good Plus): Better than Very Good: Obviously been played but no significant deterioration in sound quality despite some surface marks and light scratches. Some wear and tear on cover and contents, as in corner/edge/ring wear, with names or initials / prices tags on cover.

VG (Very Good): Obviously been played many times, some deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and light scratches. Wear and tear on cover or contents, including more severe corner/edge/ring wear, including a split spine & rips in seams up to 6" / including heavy marking of initials and names on cover. Tape on seams or spines (no masking tape)

Gd+ (Good Plus): Better than Good: Sound quality has deteriorated with surface noise heard. Some scratches and occasional more noticeable scratches that can be felt. Cover and contents suffer from peeling or discoloration, entire spine & split seams /  including heavy drawing or marking of initials and names on cover. Tape on seams or spines - including masking tape.

Gd (Good): Sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with continual surface noises. Scratches and marks are noticeable, yet record plays without skipping. Cover and contents suffer from more severe peeling or discoloration, entire spine & split seams. Tape on cover that has aged or is obvious.

F (Fair): Playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise - it may even skip due to scratches and marks . Cover and contents will be severely torn, stained and / or defaced, yet will still house an album.  

P (Poor): Very poor sound due to scratches, bad surface noise, potential skips, deeper marks and scratches etc.... Cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. This grading is pro-dominantly used for jacket cover grading (I will not sell any vinyl of this poor quality)
