Grading guide:

  • NM (Near Mint) -   
    NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label. Major factory defects also must be absent.  NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind.
  • VG++ (Excellent)
    Holds all the characteristics of VG+ but falls just short of NM. May exhibit minor cover wear.
  • VG+   
    VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Minor signs of handling are OK. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.  VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or split.  
  • VG
    VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory-fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise will not overpower the music otherwise. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear, seam splitting, and user markings might be visible. 
  • VG-, Good+, Good: 
    The record still plays through without skipping but may have significant surface noise and groove wear, and the label is worn, with obvious ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage. A Good to VG– cover has ring wear to the point of distraction, has seam splits obvious on sight and may have even heavier writing.
  • Fair - Poor: 
    The record may skip and exhibit obvious ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage. Covers will have major wear/spits/markings. Typically “Fair” records will not be offered for sale. Vinyl graded poor will not be offered for sale. Poor Covers may have major water damage, cover separation, serious markings. Only RARE issues would be offered with this cover grade.
