Vinyl Records grading

Our grading system for vinyl records follows the Record Collector (UK) standard, vinyl first, cover and inserts second, e.g. ex/m
for double albums you will find three figures in this order: first record / second record / cover, e.g. ex/ex/m
triple vinyl etc. correspondingly

SEALED  –  The record is still factory sealed (shrinkwrapped) and has never been opened

UNPLAYED or NEW is pretty much the same category  –  this record is brand new and has never seen a turntable

MINT (M) –  The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition

NEAR MINT  (NM) –  The vinyl/sleeve are virtually unblemished. It looks & plays like new though the record is used.

EXCELLENT (EX)  –  The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing

VERY GOOD  (VG) –  The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable

GOOD (G) –  The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

+ and - are used to differentiate between those categories

Ancora, se l'assicurazione non è stipulata qualsiasi danno o perdita è la responsabilità del compratore. E così se non si è d'accordo per favore non fare un'offerta!
