Grading (LP/Cover) – A grading made also for AUDIOPHILE COLLECTORS.

All the records are under a halogen bulb graded (shows the shape of the vinyl much better than even a 100 watt bulb)

Mint: Vinyl and Cover are in 100 % perfect condition - GRADIND MADE FOR THE AUDIOPHILE COLLECTOR

M-: Vinyl and Cover are “as New” (maybe vinyl has 1 – 3 ultra light hairlines which are only detectable under a very bright light and do not affect!!!, maybe virtually perfect) GRADIND MADE FOR THE AUDIOPHILE COLLECTOR

EX+: Vinyl and Cover are almost “as New”, cover appears in great shape – vinyl plays perfect (vinyl has maybe a few hairlines from removing the vinyl out of the inner-sleeve) – great collector’s copy!! – GRADIND MADE FOR THE AUDIOPHILE COLLECTOR

EX: Vinyl has some hairlines or is optically not as EX+ with maybe a light scuff but no scratche(s), vinyl should play very well to perfect with no pops etc, just virtually (under the halogen bulb!) not mint. Cover has light wear, appears still nice.

VG++: The vinyl has an amount of hairlines and/or some light scratches without deep-marks. If it’s a “loud” record it will still sound almost Mint…. A still acceptable shape and does fit well for DJ use and home-listening. The cover has maybe a price tag, small splits or ring-wear… it’s still ok but a little used.

VG+. The vinyl has maybe an amount of hairlines and/or some light-scratches or a few not too long and not very deep needle-scratches… will maybe play with some crackling in lower parts and/or with some pops could. Cover has combination of price-tag, some writing, ring-wear or another one. Used condition.

VG: The vinyl is very used with many scratches as well as deep-marks, very used condition. Cover has maybe complete top and bottom-seam-split. Only worth to buy if really rare….
