Record Grading System

** Vinyls are visually graded for listing, but are play tested if there are noticeable markings to check for skips/pops.  If you are interested in hearing the sound quality of a specific item, please contact me through messages and I will do my best to respond quickly **

MINT (M)

Absolutely perfect in every way, no scuffs, no scratches, no skipping, no crackling, no pops, no dullness, no cue burns, etc. Certainly never played, looks as if it was just purchased from the record store and the shrink wrap removed, will specify if sealed.

SLEEVE (M) = Flawless, no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable defects.

NEAR MINT / MINT MINUS (NM/M-)

A near perfect record, has no obvious signs of wear.  No scratches, no skipping, no crackling, no pops, no dullness, no cue burns, etc. May have a barely visible scuff or two from removing record from the paper sleeve.

SLEEVE (NM/M-) = Some slight wear, almost invisible ring wear, lightly turned up corners, no seam splits. Possible promo corner cut or hole punch, will specify if visible. 

EXCELLENT (EX)

A step between NM and VG+, typically not used often for the record itself, and more for assessing the sleeve.  If used for record, there may just be one or two light scratches, but not immediately noticeable and with no impact on the sound of the record. 

SLEEVE (EX) = Some slight wear, with a bit more leeway than NM.  Almost invisible ring wear, lightly turned up corners, no seam splits. 

  

VERY GOOD + (VG+)Vinyl has surface wear, including visible scratches and scuffs, but no detrimental impact on the sound quality, and may likely play with some surface noise, and some pops or clicks. Vinyl may begin to show signs of wear from play; labels may have imperfections (writing, labels, tears, spindle marks, etc.) but otherwise clean.

SLEEVE (VG+) = Clean but may have writing or marks and will show some wear. There may be ring wear, where the disc has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be discoloration or staining, seam wear, and/or minor splits or tears (nothing over 1 inch), or indentations in the sleeve. Corners can have creases or fraying and bumps, and spine may have wear.

VERY GOOD (VG)

Shows some signs of wear that it has been played, but carefully handled. Slight scuffs or very light marks that do not effect the play of the record. No skipping, may have some occasional pops here or there but otherwise not noticeable by the average listener.

SLEEVE (VG) = Cover is worn and used. Seams may be starting to split or may have been unobtrusively repaired with clear tape. (I use special archival-quality, non-yellowing, clear tape for all repairs.) There is moderate ring wear, but the artwork is still attractive. There may be yellowing or discoloration and there may be larger writing, labels, or marks. Corners may have damage or creases and there may be scratches or gouges that otherwise damage the artwork. Might have light water damage.

GOOD + (G+)The record will have a lot of notable marks and scratches, but still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. There could be significant surface noise or groove wear, and/or the label is worn.

SLEEVE (G+) = Has significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. Has seam splits obvious on sight. Could have water damage or peeling of the cover.

GOOD (G)

The record will have a lot of notable marks and scratches, more than G+, but still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. There could be significant surface noise or groove wear, and/or the label is worn.

SLEEVE (G) = Has significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. Has large seam splits obvious on sight. Could have water damage or peeling of the cover. 

GENERIC (ONLY USED FOR SLEEVE)

SLEEVE = The original vinyl sleeve is missing for the specific record, or the vinyl does not have an original sleeve.  In this case, a generic vinyl sleeve is used for the record.
