Vinyl – EX

Jacket Sleeve – VG+

*****NOT PLAY GRADED***** 

MY GRADING SYSTEM:

VINYL

NM – NM- (Near Mint) this is basically a perfect record with no flaws, that will play perfectly. Appears to be un-played or played less than 5 times.

EX + (Excellent to mint) this is a record with no scratches, maybe a finger smudge, that should play perfectly.

EX (Excellent) This record will have no light scratches. The disc will play almost perfectly with no issues. Label and jacket may show slight signs of ring-wear / lightly bent corners. No creases, writing, tears or rips.

VG+ (Very good to excellent) May show some signs that it was played and handled by a previous owner who took reasonably good care of it. Imperfections are cosmetic and do not drastically impact the playback. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs and surface scratches. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are ok. The label and jacket may have some slight ring-wear, discoloration, minor tears and imperfections. As with most vinyl, there may be low-level surface noise and light crackles and pops may be present, especially during quiet or soft passages in the track.

VG (Very good) This record will be worn with scratches and some popping, crackling, and maybe a few skips.

G (Good to Very Good) This is a lower graded record.  The sound quality will be good but not perfect, this is basically a filler for your collection.

Fair – (Jacket Only) This is a Jacket that has signs of excessive wear. Usually jacket is repaired and noted in above comments.
