Up for bid is It's All About Spooky Tooth. It's a rare UK pressing (Island Pink label). The vinyl is glossy and extremely clean, with minor paper scratches. Cover is in very nice condition, with a small amount of shelf wear. From the collection of an audiophile who took very good care of his records.

Island Records, catalog #ILPS-9080. Vinyl: VG++, Cover: VG+, Year: 1968

All vinyl is visually graded, using the scale below. When I doubt the records are play graded. I try to be as fair and accurate when grading and describing the albums. I separate vinyl condition from cover condition, as some albums are mixed. Of course, grading is a subjective process, so if you don't agree with my ratings please let me know. I rarely use Near Mint, as there are so few records that meet that criteria. Albums and 45s are shipped in specially made cardboard mailers. Albums are protected by plastic covers and wrapped in bubble wrap. LPs are removed from the covers to avoid splitting.

Vinyl Rating Guide

Sealed Copy/Mint
Brand new and unused.

Near Mint
Record has very little wear and no scratches.

VG++
Somewhere between VG+ and NM. Not quite Near Mint, but close.

VG+
A VG+ 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".

VG
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.

Good
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

Fair
The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating.

Cover Rating Guide

Sealed Copy/Mint
Brand new and unused.

NM
An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either.

VG+
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.

VG
Cover may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.

Good
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.

Fair
The LP cover is water damaged, split on all three seams or heavily marred by wear and writing. Cover barely keeps the LP inside it.
