Most of my albums (both jackets and discs) show their age and have been visibly used over the years. I have given each record a visual grade and will also play grade if time permits.

I take good pictures. I take photos of front/back cover; labels 1/2,etc; inner sleeve; inserts; and if possible, dead wax runout side 1. Please enlarge jacket photos to see wear/creases/marks. It’s too hard to capture condition of vinyl. If it does have significant marks, I will try to show in a picture.

Overall, anything with a grade of VG+ will show some surface wear and/or needle marks but nothing deep. Anything with that grade will still play fine in my book. Obviously if it's an EX or NrMINT it will be in fantastic condition. Please note the subjective nature of grading; your VG+ might be my VG or my VG+ might be someone else's EX -

HERE'S HOW I GRADE:

- MINT (Sealed, perfect condition.)

- Nr MINT (Like new with only a hint of wear.)

- EX (Very few blemishes. Maybe a couple light scratches on the vinyl or a few light creases to the jacket. Serious collectors will be satisfied with this grade.)

- VG+ (Average, used condition. Most of my vinyl and jackets are in this condition. Vinyl will show playwear/scratches, but nothing deep and it will play through fine. You may encounter a "pop" or two or some light background noise.The jacket may have creasing, edgewear, ringwear, or corner dings but nothing significant.)

- VG (Vinyl/jacket may will show a fair to moderate amount of wear .Vinyl may show a number of scratches and you will likely experience some background noise during playback, but NO skips. The jacket may show a fair amount of wear in the form of creasing, edgewear, ringwear, writing, seam splits, etc.)

- FAIR/POOR (Rarely will I sell anything of this grade unless it is a collector item with some value. Moderate to heavy wear on the vinyl and/or jacket.)

I WILL DETAIL ANY IMPERFECTIONS TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY IN MY ITEM DESCRIPTION!
