SEE BELOWFOR CONDITION GUIDE.

RecordCollector Magazine's Grading Guide:

"MINT:The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks ordeterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyricsheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealedor Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT:The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very littlelessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/ or creasing.

VERY GOOD:The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no majordeterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and theoccasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items,without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: Therecord has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeablydeteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover andcontents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration,etc.

FAIR: Therecord is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displaysconsiderable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will betorn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: Therecord will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. Thecover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: Therecord is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as acollection filler."

As well asthe above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a recordthat appears new but is known to have been played because the label has lightspindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed tohave been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the acceptedgrades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
