GRADING
- Mint - Immaculate condition thruout.
- Nr Mint (NM or M-) - A nearly perfect record - The record will show little or no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear / very slight edge wear or other signs of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like unless graded separately.
- Excellent (or VG++) - Will please most customers. Vinyl may have a few light marks when held to light but will still retain a nice sheen. Cover may have odd small crease/stain but NO WRITING or SEAM SPLITS! Will Generally worth 50 percent of the Near Mint value.
Very Good + record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces will show obvious signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches. 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. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will show some wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have significent signs of edge-wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.
All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record quite acceptable.- Very Good (VG) Generally worth 25 percent of Near Mint value. 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 of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.
