NEAR MINT/ MINT-  - LOOKS LIKE IT JUST CAME OUT OF THE SLEEVE FOR THE FIRST TIME, MAY HAVE A BARELY VISIBLE SLEEVE MARK OR HAIRLINE THAT HAS NO AFFECT ON THE AUDIO PLAYBACK, AS GOOD AS YOU WILL FIND IN AN OPEN STATE.
VG++ - A RECORD IN THIS CONDITION MAY HAVE ONE OR TWO VISIBLE IMPERFECTIONS, BUT THESE WILL BE OF A PURELY COSMETIC NATURE (i.e. SLEEVE MARKS OR OTHER SUPERFICIAL MARKS) AND WILL NOT AFFECT PLAY. A VG++ RECORD WILL HAVE NO SCRATCHES ABLE TO BE FELT WITH YOUR FINGERNAIL.*
VG+  - A RECORD IN THIS CONDITION WILL HAVE A FEW VISIBLE IMPERFECTIONS. THESE MAY INCLUDE SLEEVE SCUFFS, SUPERFICIAL MARKS,AND LIGHT SCRATCHES. THE PRESENCE OF A SINGLE LIGHT SCRATCH IS ENOUGH FOR US TO GRADE AN OTHERWISE MARKLESS RECORD VG+, A VG+ RECORD WILL HAVE NO MORE THAN A FEW SUCH SCRATCHES.* 
VG : A RECORD IN THIS CONDITION WILL SHOW THE KINDS OF IMPERFECTIONS FOUND ON A VG+ RECORD BUT IN SLIGHTLY GREATER NUMBERS. THERE MAY BE A NUMBER OF LIGHT SCRATCHES AND OTHER MARKS, BUT A VG RECORD WILL NOT BEAR ANY SCRATCHES DEEP ENOUGH TO BE FELT WITH A FINGERNAIL.*
