| Mint (M) | Perfect Condition, which basically means that it
is as good as new, literally. The vinyl has to look new and sound as
though it was never played, and the cover has to look untouched. Some
argue that the only mint records are brand new unopened ones still in
their original packing. Unless the Record is unplayed usually new I
never use this grade, as I believe a truly mint record if we're talking
an original 50's or 60's pressing is very rarely found. |
| Mint Minus (M-) |
Vinyl is near perfect. At most, a light scuff
appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or
skips.Even if a record appears to be perfect, I will usually use the M-
grade |
| Excellent (EX) | Vinyl should still play with no skips of any
kind. There can be some very minor surface scuffs, but they should not
affect the sound quality. This is the grade that I use for what many
people consider M- |
| Very Good+ (VG+) |
This is the grading category where the quality
of the sound is affected -- there will be some surface noise -- and the
vinyl will show wear, including surface scuffs and some light
scratches. However, the record is still very listenable as there are no
deep scratches that cause skips. |
| Very Good (VG) |
Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still
plays well enough. Surface noise will probably be present, including
pops and clicks. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower
any pops and clicks present. |
| Good (VG-) | Vinyl is well played and looks it. However, the
record should still play without skipping. It will have substantial
surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic
range will occur due to worn grooves. |
| G+ (Good Plus) |
The work Good in record collecting terms usually means "crap" where
the origin of using the work good instead of Bad comes from, I have no
clue, but it's time honored & still stands! This is my lowest
grading & means that the record is in very poor condition, but will
generally play OK, if it's a very rare 45 I will sell it in this
condition even if it plays badly, On a more common record, I will only
sell a G+ if it plays well, this kind of record may be perfect for a
jukebox. |
