GRADE & DESCRIPTION (RECORD):  VG+ (Vinyl has some light superficial marks on either side, none of which can felt with my fingernail though, a couple quick bits of surface noise I only noticed between track. Album rocks on my setup.)
GRADE & DESCRIPTION (COVER): VG (Jacket shows some light wear on seams/spine, but no splitting.  A few light creases on the jacket as well. Comes with Original Lyric Inner Sleeve, but has been taped at seams)

Records are shipped in LP Mailers specifically designed for shipping records, with the record outside the jacket in an inner sleeve, to try and avoid damage to spine/seams, as well as Pad Inserts between the records. New sealed records are shipped still sealed, with pads on either side.
Records have been cleaned by an ultrasonic cleaner prior to grading.  Grading is visually, unless otherwise mentioned on the specific item. 


                                                              Vinyl Grading Factory Sealed    -      Still in original sealed wrap Near Mint             -      No blemishes whatsoever, unplayed. I basically never grade this. Excellent              -      Nearly perfect, not quite Mint but would if only for the faintest sleeve scuffs that should have zero impact on playback. I really try to avoid this grade. It will look nearly new. Should not disappoint. Very Good+         -       This is a record I would be happy with in my own personal collection. Records in this grade will have light sleeve marks,a very few/if any, light scratches, nothing that is deep or that can be felt. Very minimal surface noise, nothing that takes away from the music. Usually only noticeable between tracks or quieter passages. Very Good           -       Records in this grade were well loved and well played but not abused. Will have more obvious marks, scratches. Will have some light surface noise, nothing to distracting or for too extended a period. Not perfect, but still a very good copy. Very Good-          -       Records in this grade will have many more marks, scratches, will have background noise/ticks/pops, but not completely distracting. A decent copy, but probably worth upgrading at some point. Good/Good+                   -       These records will definitely show wear and tear, occasional ticks/pops/skips. Background noise will be evident, not a final copy to keep in the collection, but a decent place holder. Typically only will sell on harder to find albums due to scarcity. Or for a cheap substitute.
                                                              Jacket Grading Near Mint - As high as I'll grade on a Jacket, it may be mint, may be close.  Should looks really nice, near new, relative to the age of the album.  Should show very minimal wear, nice corners, no seam/spine wear. VG+  Should look very nice, only faint seam/spine/ring wear.  Only small splitting forming, should be noted in the item description if so. VG Should look very nice as well, but slightly more pronounced seam/spine/ring wear, and possibly some splits on the seams/spine, likely less than 1"-2" in length.  Or light water damage. Fair/Good/Poor - These are all varying degrees of beat up.  Extensive splits, wear, water damage. 
I do not factor in stickers/writing on labels or jacket.  They should be visible on the photos of the albums. I do not grade inner sleeves either.  If you have a question whether the original is with the album, and it's condition, please ask. If you have any questions you can always reach out.
