Vinyl VG+ (plays excellent) Sleeve G+ writing on front of cover & some ring wear  See Photos


Grading based on Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:


MINT (M) = Vinyl that has not been played and is brand new. Cover is brand new and or sealed.


NEAR MINT (NM) = Vinyl nearly perfect, no obvious signs of wear. COVER should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes.


EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality and may have a couple of light scuffs that do not affect play. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing, the sleeve may have a very slight bend in the corner or very light ring wear.


VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+): Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound may be present. Sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split and light ring wear.



VERY GOOD (VG): 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. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Slight warps that do not affect the sound may be present. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects. Sleeves will have more pronounced defects than VG+ and may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.


GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.Record has scratches, may have continuous crackles, pops, significant surface noise. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration. Quite marked and getting pretty shabby at this stage.


FAIR (F): 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 (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. I will only sell this grading if the record has a some cultural / collectable importance. So, you will rarely see this grading.


BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
