My Grading
NM:  A nearly perfect record. Most likely only played once or a small handful of times.  I won't give a  grade  higher than this.  The record should show no  obvious  signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve will  have no  more than the most minor defects, such as any sign  of slight  handling. An LP cover will have no creases,  folds,  seam splits, cut-out  holes, or other noticeable similar  defects.  The same will be true of any other inserts,  such  as  posters, lyric sleeves,  etc. 

VG+:   A Very Good (VG+) Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous  owner who took good care of it. Defects will be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as  a  whole. 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" but will be noted. The label  may  have some ring  wear or  discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present.  Picture  sleeves and inner  sleeves may  have some slight wear, very slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split.  An LP  cover  may have slight  signs of  wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In  general,  if not  for a couple of  minor things  w rong with it, this would be Near Mint. Occasionally I will give a VG++
rating if I feel a record is extra "clean", but not strong enough to designate as NM.

VG:  Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise may 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 may start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail)  that may affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, seams may be splitting or have been repaired by have tape,
or have stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have
all of these problems at the same time.

VG-: Generally given to records that have noticeable shelf or ring wear, damage to or ineligible spines, or have had sizable seam splits
that have been repaired.

Any rating given lower than this ( Good/Poor ) would indicate a record that I would deem unplayable, or a sleeve with considerable damage.



NOTE: I grade rather conservatively, in my opinion. I rarely sell any VG- records, even less anything lower, unless it  is a considerably rare record and will be noted accordingly.  Only quality collectible media sold. I have several  years experience formerly managing a popular brick and mortar record store in the Phoenix, Arizona area. Your satisf-
action is my  goal.
