Play or Visual Grading

I state in my listing whether an album has been play or visual graded.

 Play Graded Vinyl:

I always “play grade” the more expensive rarer hard to find albums and others when I can but it is not always possible for me to have the time to play them all.

 Visually Graded Vinyl:

I “visually grade” an album using a strong halogen lamp. My formula is that if a visual grading is “excellent” I will take it back a grading to “very good” and so on. A visual grading can pick up scratches and scuff marks indicating if the vinyl has been cared for but not always crackle and surface noises that have been caused by sources that you can’t see. I try to give as fair an assessment as possible.

Please READ THE ITEM DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY and study the photographs

to avoid disappointment later. 

I use the Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide as below.

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

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

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

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

6.  FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

7.  POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

8.  BAD The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.

     Any Questions please ask.

     THANKS FOR LOOKING.
