GRADING STANDARDS from GOLDMINE

NEAR MINT:
Unplayed, like new and/or brand new.
 
NEAR MINT MINUS:
This is reserved for records that are a hair's width better than EX+, or just a fraction below NM (or brand-new). Another grading call, but generally it's a piece that is SO close to perfect that you could easily make an argument for it though honesty makes you feel the need to point out something keeping it out of the "nearly perfect" category.

EXCELLENT PLUS:
A judgment call.  This one is sometimes used interchangeably with NM-, but not with all sellers.  This category is for records that are ALMOST new-looking enough to pass for unowned/unused, but might have one or maybe two very minor problems that bother you just enough to not allow it to be there.  Mayhap a record that someone has purchased and never played, but when they removed the price sticker it left a 1/8 inch bare spot on the cover.  So basically, brand-new-looking, but has one light imperfection.

EXCELLENT:
An excellent record will be somewhere in that area between 1) a record that you could put in a plastic bag and pass off as brand new & 2) the VG+ record, which has just enough aesthetic spots to keep it out of the excellent category.  The vinyl can have some visible scuffs, or very minor lines or surface scratches, but should NOT have any lines/scratches that you can feel if you run your fingernail softly over its surface.  In other words, an Excellent record might have places that appear to be scratches, but they should not sound like scratches when you play them on a stereo system.  They key to this category is SOUND.  It can look slightly less than perfect but it has to sound clean. An excellent cover/sleeve can have very minor lines or creases caused by (not all-the-way folded) slight bending/folding of a corner.  There may be some very light wear caused by fingers touching the top of the cover as they flip by, and there might be the very lightest hint of oncoming ring wear, but there should not actually be real ring wear, and there can't be anything even close to a seam split, complete fold, rip or tear.  In other words, not quite perfect, but if not for an imperfection or two it might come close.

VERY GOOD PLUS:
Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record,

VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that don’t affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, so long as repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. (This goes for your body as well. See a physician if your center hole is misshapen or has telltale marks.) There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.

VG+ Covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location.

VERY GOOD:
Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. That said, VG records — which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a an NM record — are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because most of the “big money” goes for more perfect copies. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money. For the average Joe, VG is a normal listening copy. The high-end collector's satisfaction level generally bottoms out around here.

VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail.

When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise won’t overpower the music otherwise. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.

VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover, where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written on it or stamped a price tag on it, too.

GOOD/VERY GOOD MINUS:
Good does not mean bad! The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. But it has significant surface noise and groove wear. The label is worn and exhibits significant ring wear, heavy writing or obvious damage caused by trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably.
