GRADING
Grading is conservative using the following system:
Mint Minus (M-) - A near perfect record.
Excellent Plus (E+) - A clean record with no groove wear.
Excellent (E) - A record with no groove wear with only minimal traces of use and handling.
Excellent Minus (E-) - An above average record with a slight degree of groove wear, but not enough to seriously detract from it audio quality.
Very Good Plus (V+) Obviously well played, but still enjoyable. Noticeable graying in the grooves.
Very Good (V) - Very well worn, but listenable. Expect the surface noise to be significant. There may be some stressed grooves.
Very Good (V-) - Wiped out. The only time we may offer a record in this condition is if it is extremely rare.
