GRADING

I take my grading very seriously, see below for a description of how I do it.

MINT

A mint record, both Cover & Vinyl should appear perfect with no visible wear, as if its never been used.

NEAR MINT

Near Mint Cover will only have a very minor imperfection, a slightly snubbed corner for example, but does not detract from the overall appearance, the majority of it is perfect. The Vinyl will also have an extremely minor cosmetic imperfection but will play as if new.

VG++

Very Good ++ for the Cover will have artwork close to perfect. There may be some minor ring impression, slight creases to the corners but not wrinkled. There should be no writing, seam splits or tape repairs. The Vinyl may have some minor scuffs/scratches, but should play close to perfect.

VG+

Very Good + for the Cover will be a virtually clean cover but may have small writing on it. The artwork should look clean with slight aging. Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through. The corners could be slightly dog eared. The Vinyl will show wear, surface scuffs and some very light scratches. The vinyl should still have a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. It should play well with very little or no surface noise.

VG

A Very Good Cover will look worn, used. There may be some seam splitting (but not completely separated!). There will be some ring wear, where the ink has begun to wear off, giving the cover a look of snow falling. If the artwork looks snowy all over, it is less than VG condition. There may be some writing on the cover. It will look aged and more yellowish. Still it should be decent. The Vinyl will not really look very good, but should STILL play decent. There will almost always be some surface noise, but the Dynamics should still be excellent, overpowering the surface noise. With VG records, the surface noise will be minor crackle or a slight hiss, but should only be heard in between tracks or in low musical passages.

Good

A Good Cover will have just about everything wrong with it. It will have seam splits (possibly taped and repaired, but only with scotch tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs). In essence, the cover will look virtually trashed, but some artwork will still be noticed. Good Vinyl will look very well played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However good vinyl should still play. It will have distracting surface noise, such as crackle that is continuous or some hiss. Will also have some loss of dynamics caused from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any obtrusively loud pops or repeated clicks caused by deep scratches. Good means that it will play with some form of decency, so one can still enjoy the music even though you can still hear noise caused from the wear.
