VG+ Records are going to have surface noise . I assure you . If you ever need something play tested . I would be more than happy to do so. I respect collectors and understand the importance . Please disregard the ebay grading method completely . It's not so much that they are flying blind. I just use a different set of principals . I always thought UK RECORD collector was a bit more refined than Goldmine.

Play graded records possible! Just ask!!!
Vg+:  Some people seem to think Vg+ is right of the wrapper . I'm not sure what guide they are using. Personally I would think Vg+ Records have spindle marks on the label. You will also hear various noise through out. My Vg+ records do have noise . If any doubt , Please ask and/or do not purchase the record . It will have noise though out and definitely in the bands . In between tracks. 
COVER : EX++ VERY CLEAN 
RECORD: SOME SPINDLE MARKS ON LABELS . LOOKS EX++ TO NM . LOOKS LIKE THE GUY LIKED TO LISTEN TO SIDE ONE . SIDE ONE LABEL JUST A COUPLE MARKS ON LABEL. THERE MAY BE SURFACE NOISE SO : VG++ TO EX. 
I always grade the cover first Inner sleeve always graded Obi strip is graded Box and booklets graded.


I use "Record Collector" Magazine grading . And add a "NM" inbetween M and EX. One grade is equal. Covers graded first. VG+ Records will have surface noise accompanied w/ classic surface noise. I gurantee that . Don't buy the VG+ If you are picky like myself!

Please disregard any of Ebay's "Grading" principles or stipulations in this ad . Thanks
