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.
