GRADING:
All records are graded using the UK ‘Record Collector’ format:
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.
Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
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.
FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for
properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover
and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad
surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly
missing.
BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only
of use as a collection-filler.
