GRADING GUIDELINES

All records are visually inspected under strong light to give condition rating. Records with hairline marks are play-tested to confirm audio condition. Please read the "Item Condition Description" thoroughly and check with me if you have any questions.

We use the following guidelines to grade the conditions of records (vinyls, shellac) we offer for sale.

MINT (M)

Absolutely perfect in every way - possibly never been played and even still sealed. 

NEAR MINT (NM or M-)

The record has no obvious signs of wear and which will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. The sleeve has no more than minor defects (signs of slight handling) but has no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same applies to inner sleeves and inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.  

EXCELLENT (EX)

The record has very light surface marks from the inner sleeve that do not affect playback. Possible very light tick or barely audible surface. Overall the record is clean and shiny. The sleeve has slight minor defects (signs of slight handling) but has no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same applies to inner sleeves and inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc. 

VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+)

The record shows some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects are cosmetic and not affecting playback. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or light scratches that do not affect listening experiences. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split and slightly/moderately toned. The sleeve has slight signs of wear (scuffs/creases/bumped & rubbed corners/edges), and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. 

VERY GOOD (VG)

Defects found in a VG+ are more pronounced. Surface noise is evident upon playing but does not overpower the music. Groove wear is noticeable, as with light scratches that are deep enough to feel with a fingernail. Labels may be marred by inscription or have stickers (or their residue) attached. The same is true of sleeves, inner sleeves, and inserts.  

GOOD (G)

Record in Good condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. The sleeve has seam splits (at the top, bottom or on the spine), stickers (or residues), inscriptions, ring wear, or other defects. While the record is playable without skipping, surface noise and "ticks" are noticeable during playback.  

FAIR (F)

The record has noticeable spindle wear, scratches, is warped, and skips during playback. The sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. Inner sleeves are fully split and crinkled.
