_

NM (NEAR MINT) This is the highest grade that we will assign to opened, handled records. The record is virtually flawless, bright and shiny. A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches. The record should play with no audible noise. The label is bright, clean and unmarked.

EX (EXCELLENT) Record plays near perfectly, but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality. There can possibly be a hairline scratch or two but nothing that is obvious or affects play. Record is bright and shiny; label is clean and unmarked.

VG+ (VERY GOOD PLUS) Some visible surface wear, very minor scratches and scuffs, but minimal impact on the sound quality. Record will still have good luster; labels may have minor imperfections (small labels or initials, etc.) but otherwise clean.

VG (VERY GOOD) Record will have noticeable scratches or scuffs that cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. There will be no skips. Record may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, tape marks, larger writing, etc. but still easily legible. There may be wear or deformation of the spindle hole.

G (GOOD) This is the lowest grade assigned to any record we sell. Several, but not all of the following flaws apply: Well-played, dull, grayish vinyl with deeper scratches and wear causing distracting surface noise (hisses, pops, and clicks). The record will have no cracks, no major warps, and play through without any skips. Labels may be significantly defaced or damaged.

SLEEVE GRADES
_

NM (NEAR MINT) This is the highest grade that we will assign to opened, handled records. Very minor signs of wear or cover impressions. Artwork is as close to perfection as possible.

EX (EXCELLENT) Minor record impression or slight corner creases, no wrinkles, puckers, seam splits or writing on the cover. Artwork is clean and unworn and there is no ink wear.

VG+ (VERY GOOD PLUS) There may be just the start of ring wear, where the record has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying.

VG (VERY GOOD) Seams may be starting to split or may have been unobtrusively repaired with clear tape. There is moderate ring wear, but the artwork is still attractive. There may be yellowing or discoloration and there may be larger writing, labels, or marks. Corners may have damage or creases and there may be scratches or gouges that otherwise damage the artwork.

G (GOOD) This is the lowest grade assigned to any record we sell. Several, but not all of the following flaws will apply: Seam splits, large marker writing, major seam splits, significant ring wear, damaged corners, tears, cuts, gouges, or masking or duct tape seam repairs.
