GRADING DEFINITIONS

• Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way.  Certainly never been played, possibly sealed.
  
• Near Mint of Mint Minus (NM/M-)  A nearly perfect record.  A NM or M- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly with no imperfections during playback.  The record should show no obvious signs of wear. .A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling.  An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes or other noticeable similar defects.  The same should be true of any other inserts such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
  
• Very Good Plus (VG+) A very good plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.  Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole.  Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences.  Slight warps that do that do not affect the sound are "OK".  The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.  Spindle marks may be present.  Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slight turned-up corners or a slight seam split.  An LP cover may have slight signs of wear and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or cut corner.
  
• Very Good (VG) Generally worth 25% of Near Mint value.  Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc.  Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise.  Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.  Labels may be marred by writing or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.  The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers.  However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time.
  
• Good/Good Plus (G/G+) Generally worth 10-15% of Near Mint value. A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping; however, it will have significant surface noise, scratches and visible groove wear.  A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom of the spine.  Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will be present.  While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.
  
• Poor (P), Fair (F) Generally worth 0-5% of Near Mint value. The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating.  The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing.  The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it.  Inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled and written upon.
