These are the grading guidelines used and are based on Goldmine Grading for Records
MINT (M): Perfect!
This record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws
what so ever. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs
or scratches, blotches or stains. No stickers address labels, writing on
the covers or labels. No tears or seam splits. No wear to the cover or
record period! Age of the record has nothing to do with it.
NEAR MINT or NM, M- : This
record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little
else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the
flaw. The flaw is very hard to see. The cover looks as close to perfect
with only minor signs of wear and or age. Minor impressions to the cover
(due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable,
however the artwork is be as close to perfect as can be.
EXCELLENT or EX or VG++ :
Minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a
few scuffs and NO Scratches COVER: Artwork is still as close to perfect
as can be. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no
ink wear! Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and
obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white (where the artwork
pasted slick was) meaning, slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the
cover or taped repairs can make this grade.
VERY GOOD PLUS or VG+: Record
shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the
flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. If the flaws don't cause any
significant surface noise, the vinyl can still make the VG+ grade.
Surface noise should be negligible, and any amount will be overpowered
by the music. COVERS: A virtually clean cover, but may have small
writing on it.The artwork looks clean with slightly more aging. The back
of the cover usually gives away the age of the cover. Flat white paper
will be somewhat yellow yet no stains or mildew from water damage. Some
minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through.
The corners will be slightly dog eared yet no crackly bends, defacing
the artwork. In essence, a VG+ cover should have no more than 3 flaws
mentioned.
VERY GOOD or VG: This record is a record that
is good enough. They are not really going to look very good, but it will
STILL play very good. there will almost always be some surface noise
when they are played. The Dynamics should still be excellent,
overpowering the surface noise. A VG record will appear well have been
played but still have some luster. VG covers will look worn, used. There
may be some seam splitting . There will be some ring wear, where the
ink has begun to wear off. Giving the cover a look of snow falling. If
the artwork looks snowy all over, it is less than VG condition. There
may be some writing on the cover (still, no Large letters in magic
marker). It will look aged and more yellowish due to contamination's in
the air (sometimes looking like cigarette smoke). Still it should be
decent.
GOOD or G: A good record will look very well
played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However a Good record should
still play. It will have distracting surface noise. Such as crackle that
is continuous or some hiss. Will also have some loss of dynamics caused
from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any
obtrusively loud pops or repeated clicks, caused by deep scratches. Good
means that it will play with some form of decency, so one can still
enjoy the music even though you can still hear noise caused from the
wear. A Good cover will have just about everything wrong with it. It
will have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch
tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs. These are big turn offs. May
have magic marker writing on the cover but still if they are in huge
letters, it is a big turn off.In essence, the cover will looked
virtually trashed, but some artwork will still be noticed. If the
artwork is worn, it is POOR and the cover is worthless.
