Playing Surface: VG+ (E) overall, one side has some more noticeable light and superficial marks than the other, all vinyl records are given a light cleaning by hand to further protect them and improve sound quality to the best of my ability, I do not have any gadgets for cleaning records and additional deeper cleaning may improve sound quality even more
Labels: See Photos!
Cover: VG at the most, touches of damage to the title edge, slightly dirty more so on front, this is visible in the last photo
Inner Sleeve: transparent plastic inner sleeve

All records are visually graded by the Goldmine Standard, unless stated they have been play tested! Goldmine's grading system has been the industry standard for many decades now, and if you are not familiar with their criteria, this can be found by a simple online search of "Goldmine Grading". To help simplify descriptions, if there are any marks deep enough to feel on the records playing surface or damage to the labels, inner sleeves or covers, then these are generally the only exceptions mentioned! Otherwise, whatever overall grade they are given does fit into the criteria for that grade within Goldmine's grading scale. Very Good Plus (VG+) and Excellent (E, or eBay's "EX") are the same grade, not separate grades! Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) or Excellent Plus (E+) is often used as an in-between grade for records with playing surfaces straying towards the higher end of a VG+ (E) grade, close to NM (M-) if not for very minor flaws, and this is stated under the criteria for VG+ (E) on Goldmine's website!
The grading breakdown is as follows!
Still Sealed (never guarantees Mint)
Mint (M)
Near Mint or Mint Minus (NM or M-)
Very Good Plus Plus or Excellent (VG++ or E+)
Very Good Plus or Excellent (VG+ or E)
Very Good (VG)
Good Plus or Very Good Minus (G+ or VG-)
Good (G)
