Record grading: Below are details of how records are graded. Records are graded conservatively and follow Gold Mine's grading standard. The vinyl grade is first followed by the sleeve grade. If there is a noticeable mark on the record, there will be a picture in the description following the picture of that side of the record. So, first will be a picture of the vinyl side A or B, then will be a closer picture of whatever flaw there is taken in a brighter, more direct light. Most flaws look more significant in the bright lighting then they really are to the records play. Sleeve grading is a bit more evident in the picture itself. 


Grades are as follows:

SS: Still sealed: Record is in its original seal and has not been played.


NM- Near Mint Minus. The highest grade I will give a used record. Shiny surface free from any visibile mark. The only thing better is a new record in sealed shrink wrap.



EX Excellent. Used to differentiate a record just barely not mint. Will have only one visible flaw that is certain to not effect playback. 



VG++ Very good plus plus; A great record that will have a very minimal amount of light visual marks on the disc with little to no effect on the sound



VG+: Very good plus. The record has been played regularly and is showing minor signs of wear . Surface marks are evident and there will be minor audible clicks and pops



VG: Very good. A well played, average record with more visible surface wear than above grades. Will have audible clicks, pops and surface noise but will play through without skips.



VG- : Very good minus. Deeper more apparent scratches or scuffs that will effect the play of the record, but will still play through without skips or interruption. The lowest grade I would list unless the record is particularly rare. 



G: Good. Heavy wear, deeper scratches and noticeable sound quality deterioration, possibly with distortion, loud clicks, and pops. Possible skipping.
