NM (Near Mint): Record and cover appear virtually unmarked.

EX:  Plays just a little short of NM

VG+ :  A record that has experienced normal use. Will have some audible imperfections.

VG : Many only surface lines or may have 1 or more small scratches .Background sound but still very enjoyable. 

VG-: significant background sound from various defects but music always quite audible above it. 

G+: Has quite a bit of static but it does not drown out the music.
