This record is BRAND NEW!

*REMEMBER, NO CUSTOMS FEES/TAXES ON BUYS WITHIN THE EU*

Mint (M)

Vinyl & Sleeve - absolutely perfect in every way. (If sleeve is sealed, then it's impossible to grade LP, so a grading of Still Sealed for the vinyl will be given).

Near Mint (NM)

Vinyl - a nearly perfect record. The record itself should show no obvious signs of wear or any scratches.

Sleeve - an LP cover with the slightest trace of not being MINT (the smallest, almost unoticeable ding to a corner for example) but should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes either. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. 

Excellent (EX)

Vinyl - an excellent record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have (a few, not many) slight scuffs or light scratches that don't adversely affect the listening experience. Slight warps or pressing flaws may be present.

The label may have some ring wear or discolouration, but it should be barely noticeable. 

Sleeve - picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves may have some wear, lightly turned up corners or a slight seam split; almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight edge feathering/handling. 

Very Good (VG)

Vinyl - many of the defects found in an EX record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise may be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by (subtle) writing (not screeds), or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. 

Sleeve - slight ripping/tearing, seam splits, taped edges, scuffing, dings and creases may be evident. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time (only two or three of them). May be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount BUT will not have combinations of all of the above on the same item.

Good (G)

Vinyl - more surface and audible scratches than VG grade; may have (one or two) skips per side (more and it's definitely in Fair grading category). It may also have significant surface noise and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). 

Sleeve - may have combinations of seam splits, tape, writing, ring wear or other defects.  May be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation and/or corner dings (indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount).

Fair (F)

Vinyl - record will be marked with scratches and fingerprints and look well-played, It may have significant surface noise and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). May have multiple skips per side.

Sleeve - cover or sleeve may have seam splits (edges and spine). Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.

Poor (P)

Vinyl - the record may look awful! and may be cracked, badly warped, and not play through without skipping or audible scratches throughout.

Sleeve - the picture sleeve may be water damaged, split on any/all seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. Inner sleeves could have full seam splits, crinkles, and be written upon. Multiple rips, tears, ring wear, tape or other defects may be evident.
