GRADING SCALE

NEW/SEALED - New records sealed in original packaging may also be referred to as “Mint” or "Sealed.” New records are manufactured in MINT or NEAR MINT condition most often; however, condition cannot be verified nor is it guaranteed. New records are sold in "As Is" condition.

NM NEAR MINT - The highest grade for open/played records. Generally in excellent condition, vinyl shows no visible signs of wear or damage to affect play or sound quality. Cover may have price or other stickers. Most often, these albums have factory sleeves, original inserts and original shrink wrap (cut outs are noted).

VG+ VERY GOOD PLUS - Minimal signs of use to cover and vinyl. While not perfect, sound quality should satisfy most collectors and listeners. Any visible blemishes to vinyl will have minimal (or no) effect on play quality, though light surface noise maybe present at very quiet portions or between tracks. Cover or record may have minor writing, ring wear, stickers or other marks as noted.

VG VERY GOOD – Acceptable quality for occasional listening. Vinyl may have scratches and/or other visual blemishes but should play through without skipping/repeating. Light to moderate surface noise and/or crackle may be present but should not be overly distracting. Cover or vinyl may have writing or stickers. Cover may have ring and/or edge wear, cut-outs, corner wear, moderate seam splits; however, cover should hold vinyl securely. 

VG- VERY GOOD MINUS – Graded records in this category are offered for collection purposes. Record may not play through or be unplayable as noted. Sound quality is most often marred by scratches, blemishes or etc. Cover may be in very poor shape. Items graded at or below VG- are LOW GRADE records and/or covers. We typically only sell rare, specialty or novelty records in this category.
