Steely Dan

Title: The Royal Scam

Label: ABC Records 931

Record condition: M

Cover condition: M

Note: Factory sealed 1976 original. R-557.

Please note our grading below. We have mint listed as a grade but we do not use. A VG+ grade will satisfy almost all collectors.

SS (Still Sealed): Unopened records, still in the original shrink-wrap. In original manufactured condition unless noted differently.

M (Mint): The record and sleeve are in perfect condition. The record may have been played but will show no signs of deterioration. (A grade we do not use.)

NM (Near Mint): A very clean record. Near mint condition except for slight superficial scuffs. Sleeves with this rating may have small defects but will not have significant creases or splits.

VG+ (Very Good Plus): A well-cared-for-record that is noticeably less then perfect, but defects are not visually or audibly distracting. Record surfaces may have slight scuffs or light scratches, but are still primarily clean. Sleeves may have some creases or minor ring wear, but will not be split. (A grade that will satisfy most collectors.)

VG (Very Good): A used, reasonable copy to play. Many of the defects found in a VG+ copy will be more pronounced in VG condition. Surface noise and sleeves may look worn, but the record is still a decent copy.

VG- (Very Good Minus): A well-worn record that is still playable. A record in this condition will have audible distractions and may have visible groove wear. Sleeves may have all manner of defects, but are still intact.

F (Fair): This grade is for beat-up records. We only sell records in this condition that are extremely rare and sought-after.

All records are cleaned with a VPI record cleaner.
