Need more details?   Want to see additional pictures?   Comments.   Contact me.   See the other LP records, CD's, and other music related items I have listed. (I will be listing from my personal collection of 3000+ LP's weekly [or more frequently], check back often.  It will take some time to list it all.)      My turntable is a Rega Planar 3 with Rega tonearm and Talisman Boron Cartridge.      RECORD GRADING GUIDELINES:  (Cover/Record) My grading guidelines are based on a combination of 'Goldmine's Grading Guidelines' and Perry's grade descriptions in his 'Beatles Price Guide'.  All records will be visually graded under bright direct lighting.  Record grading and condition is subjective.  If any record condition is not as described, I offer FREE Returns.  Check out my feedback rating. Covers are easy to 'describe' with pictures.  Glossy vinyl is difficult to photograph showing the condition, defects, or scratches - but I'll try if you ask. 

STILL SEALED (SS) The record is sealed in original factory shrink-wrap.  Vinyl is assumed to be near mint (NM) but cannot be verified until opened.  NOT necessarily the best grade.
MINT (M) Absolutely perfect in every way.  Often rumored to exist, but rarely seen.
NEAR MINT (NM) Looks as if it were opened for the first time.  Includes ALL original pieces (Cover, Record(s), Inner Sleeve(s), Lyric Sheet, Poster, Insert, etc.). Shiny surface, without scratches or jacket/sleeve rubs.  Possibly with one or two small imperfections or blemishes.  Labels are clean without writing, stickers, spindle marks, blemishes, or other markings.  Cover has no creases, ring wear, splits, or cut-out marks.
EXCELLENT (EX) A carefully handled and properly stored record.  Close to NM but have a few small imperfections or blemishes.  Including superficial jacket/sleeve rubs; a few hairline scratches of  ½" or less; a 'bumped' corner; minimal shelf wear on seams; or a minor seam split of ½" or less.  May have slight surface sound that may be heard during a song intro and fade.  Cut-out markings may be present.  May have unobtrusive initials or name.  Cover may show rubbing, but without ring wear.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) Shows slight signs of wear.  Still retains much of the original glossy finish.  May have light scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect the listening experience,  or slight warps that don't affect the sound.  Expect minor signs of handling including spindle marks.  Partial ring wear or discoloration may be present.  May have unobtrusive initials or name.  Cover shows normal (typical) shelf wear or a seam split of less than 2".  Cut-out markings may be present.  Generally a clean, readable spine.
VERY GOOD (VG) Shows signs of wear and handling including: visible groove wear, audible scratches and surface noise, ring wear, and seam/spine splits.  Lacks the original glossy finish. Groove wear is evident on sight and light scratches are deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.  When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible.  But the surface noise will not overpower the music.  Labels may have writing or sticker.  Expect obvious signs of handling and normal wear.  Ring wear will generally be present.  Seam splits may appear on all three sides, but will not be obvious.  Seam splits may be repaired with clear tape.  The cover may be dull or discolored, or have bent corners.
VERY GOOD MINUS (VG-), GOOD (G) Shows considerable signs of handling including: groove wear, ring wear, seam splits, and damaged covers or labels.  The surface sheen is almost gone, but the record  plays through without skipping.  Significant surface noise and groove wear.  Labels have numerous spindle marks, stickers, writing, or tears.  Cover show much wear  including heavy ring wear, obvious seam splits, writing, stickers, tears, or other damage.
