Grading:

Record: Excellent (Vinyl has great luster, holding the record up to a very bright light, you will see many tiny lines across the surface. Plays beautifully, with no ticks or pops, on my Thorens TD 124 MkII / Ortofon 212 / SPU Mono). 

Album Cover: Very Good (corner splits, several small usage marks, water stain on back, please see pictures).

Superb sound, great music, incredibly beautiful classic cover art by Reid Miles!

Grading guidelines:

Mint or M: Still sealed or opened once but as new, never played, with no scuffs. The perfect record.

Near Mint or NM:  This grade is for the most part, the most widely used grade for records that appear virtually flawless. Virtually flawless records are not perfect. A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. The flaw should be very hard to see. 

Excellent or EX:  It is a very conservative grade for those who don't want to grade NM, for fear they may over grade the record. An Excellent condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs which are visible but only slightly. The wear should be minimal. Any scratches that can be felt with your fingernail can NOT be called scuffs. Scuffs lay on top of the grooves. If any break in the grooves are felt, they ARE scratches. No scratches can make this grade!
Very Good + or VG +: It still plays well (some spots of noise, but overall decent and 100% playable), VG + is a conservative grade and will show wear, surface scuffs and some very light scratches. Surface scuffs are caused from blunt (not sharp) objects. Often the minor scuffs are caused from inner sleeves. The vinyl should still have a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. Sometimes holding the record up to a very bright light, you will see many tiny lines across the surface

Very Good or VG : Vinyl will have many light marks and usually an even amount of surface noise.  Labels could have damage, pen writing, spindle wear.

Good or G: I’m not selling records with this grade!
