Mint (M)
An impeccable record,
potentially unplayed or still sealed. Best used cautiously when grading
second-hand records due to its near-perfection.
Near Mint (NM or
M-)
Nearly flawless, likely
unplayed, with flawless vinyl and playback. No visible flaws or imperfections.
Typically, the highest grade given by dealers, acknowledging the rarity of
absolute perfection. The record exhibits minimal wear, and any accompanying
sleeves or inserts have insignificant defects, if any.
Very Good Plus
(VG+)
Valued at approximately
half of Near Mint, a VG+ record shows signs of previous handling but remains in
great condition. Minor cosmetic defects may be present, such as surface wear or
light scratches that do not impact listening. Some wear might be visible on
labels or sleeves but remains inconspicuous.
Very Good (VG)
Roughly a quarter of
Near Mint value, a VG record displays more noticeable wear and potential
surface noise during playback. Light scratches and groove wear might affect
sound quality, but the music remains listenable. Label and sleeve defects like
writing or tape may be more evident but not necessarily all present at once.
Good (G), Good Plus (G+)
Valued at 10-15% of Near Mint, these conditions allow play without skipping but exhibit significant wear, scratches, and surface noise. Sleeves or covers might have splits, writing, or ring wear, affecting their appearance.
Poor (P), Fair (F)
Worth 0-5% of Near Mint
value, records in this condition are heavily damaged. They may be cracked,
warped, or unplayable without skipping. Sleeves and covers show severe damage,
including water damage, splits, and heavy wear. Inner sleeves might be torn or
written upon extensively.
