A few words about
condition.
Grade &
score out of 100
GRADING
Mint is a
Rigid Band - The next Four Grades are all
Narrow Bands, that slightly widen as the
condition gradually deteriorates - Good is
still Good, but there is a rapid widening
of the Grade Bands, as the condition
deteriorates over the last Four grades.
MINT
100
The
record itself is in brand new condition with
no surface marks or deterioration in sound
quality.
The cover and any
extra items such as the lyric sheet,
booklet or poster are in perfect
condition.
Only graded on records that are sealed or
clearly unplayed.
NEAR
MINT
97 to 99
EXCELLENT
90 to 96

virtually no signs of having been played,

The record shows signs
of having been played, but there is very
little lessening in sound quality.

packaging might have slight wear, light
creasing.
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.
Normal wear and tear
on the cover or extra items, without any
major defects.
This is an above average
used record, that has been well looked
after.
GOOD
56 to 68
The
record has been played so much that the sound
quality has deteriorated, but the record will
still play through, and it will not be a
completely unpleasant listening experience,
even at the bottom of this grade (56).
The cover and
contents may suffer from folding, scuffing
of edges, spine splits, discolouration,
etc.
FAIR
41 to 55
The
record is still playable but has not been
cared for properly and displays considerable
surface noise; it may even stick, skip or
jump.. This is starting to be an unpleasant
listening experience at the top of the grade
(55) and will not be a pleasant listening
experience at all by the end of it (41).
The cover and
contents will be torn, stained and/or
defaced.
POOR
25 to 40
The
record will not play properly due to
scratches, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and
contents will be badly damaged or partly
missing.
BAD
0 - 24
The
record is unplayable or might even be broken,
and is only of use as a collection-filler.
The Sleeve is non
existent (0) or what is left, is only just
recognisable.
