GRADINGS When grading records I follow the standard UK grading system as defined by Record Collector Magazine. This is the most widely used guide and respected by Collectors Worldwide.
MINT (M) – Record is in brand new condition. The cover and all extra items are present and in perfect condition. No used items can be mint in my opinion.
EXCELLENT (EX) – The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG) – The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items (without any major defects) is acceptable. I always grade honestly and accurately and unless a record is extremely rare I never sell anything with a grading below VG-
