I use a grading system based on the Goldmine Grading Standard.  I visually grade both the record and the sleeve separately, under a bright light.  

GRADING=  This is my grading system to match up with EBay's grading scale.  My grading on LP's is visual.  If I see a defect that may effect the sound I will listen to it and mention it in the description. If there are any seam splits on the sleeve I will mention them in the description.   I may use + or - for a record that falls in between grades.  Grading is a subjective scale.  

M=  Still sealed and perfect in every way.

NM=  Rare LP.  Vinyl and sleeve looks like new.  No defects of any kind.

EX=  Highly collectible LP.  Vinyl will have no more than a few light scuffs or scratches per side that cannot be felt.  The label will show no signs of wear but a very small unnoticeable defect is allowed.  The cover will show only the slightest signs of wear such as corner rubs or light seam wear in spots.   There may be some light ring indention that is not noticeable.  Sleeve may have cut out marking or hype sticker.

VG+=  A collectible, above average condition LP.  Vinyl will have more than a few light scuffs or light scratches per side that cannot be felt.  The label may show light signs of wear that are barely noticeable.  The sleeve will show signs of light wear such as seam wear, corners rubbed & possibly slightly bent at the tips, art work on front & back cover will look nice but possibly have a light loss of sheen or light foxing.  There may be some ring indention but no visible ring wear.  Sleeve may have cut out marking, hype sticker, or a small marking on back of sleeve.

VG=  An average condition LP.  Vinyl will have numerous scuffs or scratches, some may be felt.  The label will show wear and could have writing, tape or stickers on it.  The sleeve will show signs of wear, will have heavier seam wear, corner wear, loss of sheen, or a light crease.  Sleeve may have cut out markings, stickers, or small ink markings on front or back.

G=  A poor condition LP.  Vinyl will be heavily worn and scratched.  Label will show heavy wear and could have writing, tape, or stickers on it.  The sleeve will show obvious ring wear, seam splits, and may be marred by stickers or heavy writing.  Mainly used as a filler for a hard to find record.

EBAY's ratings are as follows.

Mint (M)

Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed.(More on still sealed under "Other Considerations"). Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.
Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly)that no record is ever truly perfect. 
The record should show 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 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. 
Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. 
Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anything that exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worth significantly more than the highest Goldmine book value. 

Very Good Plus (VG+)

Generally worth 50 percent of the Near Mint value. 
A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. 
Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. 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 have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of 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. 
In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly 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. 

Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price. This, not the Near Mint price, should be your guide when determining how much a record is worth, as that is the price a dealer will normally pay you for a Near Mint record. 
                                                                    

  Good (G), Good Plus (G+)

Generally worth 10-15 percent of the Near Mint value. Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white). 
A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. 
It is a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade. 

Poor (P), Fair (F)

 Generally worth 0-5 percent of the Near Mint price. The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. 
Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each. 

Other Considerations

Most dealers give a separate grade to the record and it's sleeve or cover. In an ad, a record's grade is listed first, followed by that of the sleeve or the cover.
