****************************************************
The following guidelines are used for records and their jackets (boxes).
RECORDS:
FS: Factory sealed, i.e. a mint record or a new record.
NM: Near mint records are records that are not new, but appear to be defect free, visually they usually look very clean and have none or a very few surface mars.
NM - : (Near mint minus) A record with a minimum of surface mars and spindle trails.
NM-/VG+ : A record with minimal areas of low level recurring noise.
VG+ : A record with possibly several areas of low level noise, i.e. a well used record.
VG : A record with constant noise, where noise can be severe.
JACKETS (BOXES, etc.):
FS : Factory sealed
NM: Generally is in new condition.
NM- : (Near mint minus), a little less than NM.
NM-/VG+ : May have one or two minor defects.
VG+ : A variety of defects may be present, such as ringwear, edgewear, corner wear, split seams and/or taped seams, shelf wear.
Most records are visually insepected only. I do play many records to grade them. To me, there are no absolutely perfect records, not even factory sealed ones. Records are not CD's and I believe all have imperfections, pressing bubbles for example, and other innate defects. Having said all the above, I do try my very best to describe a record album honestly. Records have been a life long hobby for me, as I have collected them nearly all my life. I can't say I am a perfect grader, but uisually I am spot on. I am very amenable to making adjustments if you are not satisified with a record: either a full refund or a partial adjustment, which ever you might prefer. I do not run a business, I am only a hobbyist.
