GRADING

I visually grade most records using the classic Goldmine Standard, to which EX has been added. Records that are play graded, are "spot" played in a few locations (mostly in suspect areas, in between cuts, and starting dead wax.

MINT :  Absolutely perfect.
This record looks like it has just left the plant, with no flaws whatsoever.  It appears unhandled and unplayed, with no marks of any sort.  Usually only sealed or (sometimes) unplayed LPs will warrant this grade.The cover does not appear to have had a record inside it; there is no wear or distraction of any kind.

NM : No visible flaws, top copy.
The record is virtually identical to the moment it was opened, but may have a few faint paper, packaging or pressing scuffs which will produce no sound whatsoever and are very hard to see without critical inspection.  It was very carefully handled and played, likely only once or twice.The cover is as close to perfect as can be expected given its age.  

NM-: Close to NM but a faint scuff or hairline may be present. The cover may have minor impressions due to the outer edge of the vinyl (no ring wear), the lightest possible corner bumps, or a few tiny laminate creases (mainly on imports), but no wear or whitening of any kind whatsoever.

EX (VG++) : Excellent- a record that has been well-played but well-cared for so no major scratches or visible defects. Scuffs are acceptable as long as they do not affect play. There will be more pops and static in the lead-in groove and between songs but the music will still have full-on analog magic. It can be modified with a ?minus? or in other ways, etc. It retains its gloss, sheen and luster, but may have a handful of faint superficial scuffs, hairlines or light spindle marks which will not produce any sound whatsoever.The cover is nearly perfect.  There may be the absolute faintest suggestion of ring wear or possibly a light touch of dulling on the corners (nothing wrinkled or obtrusive in any way), but no notable seam or spine wear, writing or sign of tape anywhere.

VG+ : Plays great nearly all of the time, with only a few minor distractions.The record still retains good gloss, sheen and luster, but there may be a handful of inaudible superficial marks or scuffs, a mild scattering of light hairlines (which would only be faintly audible on lead-in groove, between tracks or in some very quiet passages), or a few stray surface marks which may mildly sound for a few revolutions. Each flaw is minor, and will not detract from the enjoyment in any way.The cover is still very clean and crisp, but may look slightly more aged and have a few minor flaws such as small unobtrusive writing, minor wear to the seams and spine (no splits), slightly worn corners, very light ring wear or minor creasing. 

VG : The record appears well played, but still has the majority of the luster.  It will not have been abused, though there will be some audible sound defects which will not overpower the dynamics of the music, such as mild surface noise in the quietest sections, visible surface scratches a handful of stray isolated pops and clicks (which are brief and occasional), or possibly some very mild groove wear; still no skips, repeats, or anything deep or seriously pronounced. Light surface noise probable. It will play through quite nicely most of the time, with very minimal distraction.The cover looks somewhat used and shows some mild wear.  There may be some minor seam splitting, ring wear (which still doesn?t overwhelm the cover), discreet writing (not large magic marker), or mild yellowing due to air contaminants. It is still nice, just a few notable flaws away from VG+.
