I play each used record (unless noted)

I grade (Jacket/Vinyl) according to Goldmine Standards:

(my additions are in italics)

SS:  Still Sealed—in factory-fresh condition.

M:  Mint—perfect, factory-fresh but opened.

M- (or NM):  Mint Minus or Near Mint—a near perfect record. M- records are shiny, with no visible defects.

 Writing, stickers, spindle marks, or other markings cannot appear on the label.

M- jackets have no creases, ring wear or seam splits of any kind.

VG+ (or EX):  Very Good Plus or Excellent—only superficial signs of use that don’t affect play.

May show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs/very light scratches that do not affect listening.

 (Could have some light surface noise in quiet passages).

VG+ jackets may have very light ring wear or discoloration, barely noticeable.

May have some very minor seam wear or a split (2” long or less).  Could have cut-out or similar markings.

VG:  Very Good—a used, reasonable copy. Can have light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail.

Has surface noise which doesn’t overpower the music. Some scratches may be audible.

 Label can have minor writing, tape or sticker.

VG jackets have obvious ring wear, but not overwhelming; more creases visible.

Seam splitting more 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.

VG-:  Very Good Minus—significant wear and marks and usually quite noticeable surface noise.

G+:  Good Plus—In the record world, “Good” is not good!

From here on down (Fair, Poor), we’re talking about beat-up records.
