About My Grading system:

I list the date of release when this is obvious on label or jacket. I also include dead wax info (RVG, matrix numbers if relevant, etc), and include pics of inserts.
I basically use the standard grading as defined by GOLDMINE. But have added EX+/- because I feel there is a big difference between NM and VG+. It appears as follows on their website.
Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed (SS). (Seldom, if ever, used rating)
Near Mint (NM ) A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly)that no record is ever truly perfect.
The record should show no obvious signs of wear. Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap.
Excellent Plus (EX) (+) Some light paper scuffs and perhaps 1 or 2 minimal small light scratches. In general, if not for a couple minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus-Plus (EX) record highly acceptable.
Very Good Plus (VG+) A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". 
Very Good (VG) Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
I only sell records that are graded VG if they are collectible and rare.
