Led Zeppelin 4 IV Zoso SD-19129 Atlantic 1971 LP Vinyl With Inner sleeve. Stairway to heaven. "Porky" is signed in the dead wax area. This record is in GOOD  (G) condition and was tested at the time of listing. Shipped with USPS Media Mail.

I use the GOLDMINE STANDARD grading system as described below. I grade these items myself. The grade is just my own opinion and not professionally graded. Please review all info and pictures before purchasing.

MINT (M):

Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. 

NEAR MINT (NM or M-):

A nearly perfect record.  A NM or M- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Shows no obvious signs of wear.  A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticable similar defects.  The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.

VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+):

A Very good plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handles by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "ok". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.

VERY GOOD (VG):

Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise.  Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.  Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.  The same will be true with picture sleeves or LP covers.  However it will not have all of these problems at the same time.

GOOD (G) / GOOD PLUS (G+):

A record in GOOD or Good PlUS condition can be played through without skipping.  But it will have significant surface noise, scratches and visible groove wear.  A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.

POOR (P) / FAIR (F):

The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play throughout without skipping or repeating.  The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing.  The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully split, crinked and written upon.
