 LP Grading Scale:

Here's a guideline for how I grade records. Not all records will fit "exactly" into a certain grade, and one should assume a certain amount of tolerances within each grade. 

Assume grading to be "visual" unless noted.  I grade under a powerful 100 watt bulb.

+/-:  I use pluses and minuses to help indicate more or less issues in a certain grade.

Grades for vinyl :

M : new, un-played, perfect.

NM: like new but possibly carefully played a limited amount of times. Should play near perfect with almost no noise or imperfections. May show very faint imperfections from paper scuffs or tiny needle marks.

EX : as above with a few light needle marks, or a few  light surface scuffs, and/or lightly audible marks. A very nice used record.

VG : still showing gloss but lots of small scratches and scuffs or some groove wear. A used/played record that should still play through without skips, but will have light surface noise throughout, pops, ticks, and maybe some light distortion/sibilance. I do not consider VG to be a complete junk grade.

VG- to G : any record in less than VG condition that I feel is still worth offering due to it’s rarity.

Grades for covers:

M : perfect. no wear, square flat corners, solid seams, spine etc., Usually sealed

NM : overall appearance of front and back near perfect but may have a very small problem such as a small corner ding/couple tiny spine chips, but nothing noticeable without close inspection.

EX : as above, nice "un-handled" feel, but may have more spine wear, a bent or slightly separated corner or two, very light ring wear, but rarely any splits or tears.

VG: still has a nice overall appearance, but may have the following defects: seam splits, spine splits, small tears, ring wear, writing, stains, stickers etc. in various (not severe) degrees.

VG- to G : getting ugly, but for some reason still worth offering.
