Please read the grading definitions at the bottom. 

None of the records are warped.

There is one intermittent skip on the Cahoots song 'Thinking Out Loud' which is mentioned below. On Northern Lights there is one skip during the intro of Jupiter Hollow otherwise all other songs are EX.

The Cahoots Vinyl is somewhere between VG to VG+.  The 3rd song of side 2 'Thinking Out Loud' has one intermittent skip by the lyric: "Transylvania Train" which happens only once in awhile (it did not skip after I adjusted the anti-skating control). There is light surface noise but nothing overpowering. The Cover is VG with some splitting at the top and in other places.

The Big Pink Vinyl is  somewhere between VG to VG+.   There is some light surface noise which is intermittent throughout but nothing overpowering. Both sides have been played and it did not skip. There is No Cover for this one (I bought it like that) but I do keep it in a different cover.

The Brown LP Vinyl is somewhere between VG to EX with some slight surface noise occasionally noticeable throughout. I have played both sides and there was no skipping. The Cover is G - VG with much seam splitting and edge wear. There is also fading & discoloration on the inside with more splitting at the center.

The Northern Lights Vinyl is EX on all of the songs except Jupiter Hollow which has a skip during the intro. It has the original Inner Sleeve which is EX. The Cover is VG with ring & edge wear.

The Rock Of Ages Vinyl is overall an  EX but a couple of songs have slight occasional surface noise noticeable during quiet or silent parts. All sides were test played and had no skips. The Cover is VG+ with some edge wear on the top and bottom. 

VINYL GRADING DEFINITIONS:

E or VG++
(EXCELLENT or VERY GOOD ++)Disc plays near perfectly, but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality. There can possibly be a hairline scratch or two but nothing that is obvious or affects play. Vinyl is bright and shiny; label is clean and unmarked.VG+
(VERY GOOD PLUS)Some visible surface wear, very minor scratches and scuffs, but minimal impact on the sound quality. Vinyl will still have good luster; labels may have minor imperfections (small labels or initials, etc.) but otherwise clean.VG
(VERY GOOD)Vinyl will have noticeable scratches or scuffs that cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. There will be no skips. Vinyl may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, tape marks, larger writing, etc. but still easily legible. There may be wear or deformation of the spindle hole.


COVER GRADING DEFINITIONS:

E or VG++
(EXCELLENT or VERY GOOD ++)Minor disc impression or slight corner creases, no wrinkles, puckers, seam splits or writing on the cover. Artwork is clean and unworn and there is no ink wear.VG+
(VERY GOOD PLUS)Cover is clean but may have minor writing or marks and may show slight wear. There may be just the start of ring wear, where the disc has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying.VG
(VERY GOOD)Covers are worn and used. Seams may be starting to split or may have been unobtrusively repaired with clear tape. (I use special archival-quality, non-yellowing, clear tape for all repairs.) There is moderate ringwear, but the artwork is still attractive. There may be yellowing or discoloration and there may be larger writing, labels, or marks. Corners may have damage or creases and there may be scratches or gouges that otherwise damage the artwork.G
(GOOD)Several (but not all of the following flaws will apply: Seam splits, large marker writing, major seam splits, significant ring wear, damaged corners, tears, cuts, gouges, masking or duct tape seam repairs, or other flaws and damage. Again, probably only useful to fill a collection niche until something better can be found.
