ALL RECORDS ARE VISUALLY GRADED! My Vinyl Grading System:

SEALED Record is still factory sealed with original shrink wrap. There is no way to determine any flaws with the vinyl without opening it up, so it will be at the buyers risk, and record will remain sealed.

M (mint) Record is new, shiny, never played.

NM (near mint) Record is like new, probably played a few times.

EX (excellent) Record in great shape, may have light marks, played more than a few times.

VG+ (very good plus) Record has been played more times, it has more marks.

VG (very good) Record has been played many times and has many more marks.

G (good) Record is in bad condition, this is worth only for archive items - just to have that until you find better.
