NM |
Appears unplayed and will bear no marks, sleeve scuffs, or scratches. We seldom use this grade. |
|
EX |
May have one or two visible imperfections (i.e. sleeve scuffs, faint scratches, or other superficial marks) that will not affect play. |
|
VG+ |
A few visible imperfections. These may include sleeve scuffs, light scratches, or other superficial marks. |
|
VG |
Same imperfections found on VG+ records but in slightly greater numbers. Records graded VG and above will typically not have any scratches that are deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. We always play these completely thru & they will be described with a PLAY grade in the item description. |
|
G |
Pervasive imperfections of varying degrees including both light scratches and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail. G+ and G- are used to indicate stronger and weaker copies of this grade. We always play these completely thru & they will be described with a PLAY grade in the item description. |
