For packing I use a professionally made vinyl record box and 2 extra cardboard filler pads that surround the record for added protection. Here's the grading scale that I use. RECORD GRADING SEALED: Still brand new and factory sealed MINT: The record will not be sealed, but it will be perfect and still look brand new and unplayed. NEAR MINT: The record will be very clean and shiny, with no scratches or marks andit will play great. VG++: The record will very clean and shiny, with just a couple of very light scratches or very light marks, that will not affect the play. The record will play very well. VG+: The record will be shiny with some light scratches. The record will play well, with either no background noise; or with just a bit of light background noise. Usually the light background noise would be on quieter parts or at the start or end of a song VG: The record will probably have lost some shine and it will have some scratches or scuffs. The record will play with some background noise on parts, but it won't skip and will be enjoyable G+: The record will have more scratches and marks than VG and will play with more background noise. It won't skip but will play with noticeable background noise on parts G or Fair: The record will play worse than G+, but also should not skip. I don't sell many records graded G+, G or fair. I usually only list G+, G or fair graded vinyl when it's a very rare record JACKET GRADING SEALED: Still factory sealed NEAR MINT: The jacket will have no flaws. It will have no corner wear, no cover wear/ring wear, no writing, no seam splits and no cut outs, drill holes or cut corners. The jacket might or might not be in shrinkwrap. VG++: The jacket will be just a notch under near mint with 1 or 2 very minor flaws. Perhaps a bit of corner wear or just a bit of very light cover wear or very light ring wear. VG+: The jacket will be in nice shape, with some corner wear and maybe some light cover wear or light ringwear. VG: The jacket will have more noticeable flaws with heavier cover wear or ring wear, plus maybe a small seam split in the 3 or 4 inch range and maybe a name written in small letters near a corner. G+: The jacket will have even more flaws with maybe a crease, some surface scrapes, more writing and larger seam splits; with heavier cover wear G: Even worse than G+ but still useable fair: Many flaws and only used for very rare records or if the actual vinyl grade is VG+ or better Please check my feedback and bid with confidence!
