I
thoroughly describe and grade all records that I sell and strive for
100% customer satisfaction. Please contact me directly with any concerns
or problems.
Record grading based on Goldmine standards,
but with added NM- and VG++ for records that don't quite fall into
either the NM or VG+ category so as not to be over graded:
Mint [M], or Still Sealed [SS]: Only sealed records will be deemed "Mint".
Near
Mint [NM]: The record shows no obvious sign of wear, appearing
unplayed. An LP jacket has no creases, folds, seam splits or any other
noticeable similar defect. No cut-out holes, either. Basically, Near
Mint looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and
removed the shrink wrap.
*Near Mint Minus [NM-], and [VG++]:
Vinyl shows only faint paper scuffs or pressing scuffs on the surface
only. No noise from scuffs will be heard. VG++ is for an LP with only a
medium amount of paper scuffs and/or pressing scuffs, still no effect on
play.
Very Good Plus [VG+]: Shows some signs that it was played
and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.
Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight
scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening
experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK yet will be
noted. An LP jacket my have slight signs of wear also and may be marred
by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of
print and sold at a discount. In general, if not for a couple of minor
things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most
mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly
acceptable.
Very Good [VG]: Many of the defects found in a VG+
record are more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise is evident upon
playing, especially in soft passages and during the song's intro and
fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start
to be noticeable, as will light scratches deep enough to feel with a
fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing,
or have tape or 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, only two or three of them.
Good
[G], Good Plus [G+]: A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put
onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will
have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear. A
jacket or sleeve has seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the
spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm
the object.
Poor [P], Fair [F]: I do not list records in this
category unless exceptionally rare and desirable. They will have skips,
cracks and/or noise that prevents the enjoyment of the music.
Please feel free to ask any questions! Thanks!
