Grading Condition is Based On the Goldmine Vinyl Grading Standards as Follows:
Mint (M) - Perfect, flawless Condition, which basically means that it is as good as new, literally. The vinyl has to look new and sound as  though it was never played, and the cover has to look untouched. Some argue that the only mint records are brand new unopened ones still in their original packing.
Near Mint (NM) -Vinyl is near perfect. At most, a light scuff appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or skips.  The record sleeve should also be near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no "ring wear" on the cover.  (Ring wear is when the outline of the record inside shows through the sleeve.)
EX Excellent (EX or VG++) - Beautiful collectible condition. Only the slightest of wear, certainly no deep scratches. Vinyl should still play with no skips of any kind.  There can be some very minor surface scuffs, but they should not affect the sound quality. The record sleeve can have some minor ring wear but it should be mostly  in good shape. Also, there can be some minor creases in the corners but no splits in the seams.
VG+ Very Good+ (VG+) - Great condition. Well cared for. This is the grading category where the quality of the sound is affected -- there will be some surface noise --  and the vinyl will show wear, including surface scuffs and some light scratches. However, the record is still very listenable as there are no deep scratches that cause  skips. On the cover, the corners may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but not tears or holes.
VG (Very Good) - Still good condition, but more wear than VG+. Very Good (VG) Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still plays well enough. Surface noise will  probably be present, including pops and clicks. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower any pops and clicks present. There may be seam splitting,  but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part still  be in good condition.
VG- (Very Good Minus) - Vinyl is well played and looks it. May have some deep scratches that will affect the sound.  However, the record should still play without  skipping. It will have substantial surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic range will occur due to worn grooves. This grade depends  a lot on the owner and the type of records he or she collects. A rock record may still sound ok at a high volume, but quieter styles of music will be practically  unlistenable. The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.
G (Good) - Lots of wear, but still playable. Good really does not mean good. It is actually quite poor condition. Will most likely have deep scratches that affect sound.  The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.
Fair/Poor (F/P) Using the word fair for this quality of record is, in the opinion of RCR, too generous and not recommended since it may be misleading. Records  described as fair (F) or Poor (P) in the Goldmine grading system are ones that are basically unlistenable. Surface noise, skips and pops make hearing what's on the  record nearly impossible, if not completely impossible. The cover is falling apart, torn, and has writing all over it.
