No stickers on Picture sleeve and no ring wear from vinyl on the front or back at all. Half inch seem split on top nearest mouth, barely noticeable. Very small initials written on back upper corner, shown in picture. The opposite side of the mouth of the sleeve is in excellent condition and can still be read. (see pics). No seem splits or creases any where else and I rate the sleeve a NM to Ex+++++++++. Vinyl is in VG+ condition with minor light scratches. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like me to send some more pics.
Mint (M) or Still Sealed (SS)
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. Personally, I refuse to grade any record “Mint” unless it is still factory sealed – just on a matter of principle.
Near Mint (NM)
Vinyl is near perfect, as if it were just opened. At most, a light scuff appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or skips. The record sleeve should also be near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no outline sleeve.
Excellent (EX or VG++)
Vinyl should still play with no skips. There can be some very minor surface scuffs, but they should not affect the sound quality to a great extent. The vinyl should still retain a nice shine. The record sleeve can have some minor ring wear but it should be mostly in good shape. Also, there can be some minor creases in the corners but no splits in the seams.
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. On the cover, the corners may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but not tears or holes.
Very Good
(VG)
Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still plays well enough. Surface noise will probably be present, including pops and clicks. Vinyl possibly could skip. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower some pops and clicks present. There may be seam splitting, but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part still be in okay condition.
Good (VG-)
Vinyl is well played and looks it. It will have substantial surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic range will occur due to worn grooves. Vinyl could skip. This grade depends a lot on the owner and the type of records he or she collects. A rock record may still sound ok at a high volume, but quieter styles of music may be practically unlistenable. The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.
Fair/Poor (F/P)
Records described as fair (F) or Poor (P) are ones that are basically not listenable. Surface noise, skips and pops make hearing what's on the record nearly impossible, if not completely impossible. The cover is falling apart, torn, and has writing all over it. The only reason to keep it would be if the record is extremely rare. It’s sole purpose is to be a collection filler, not to be played.
PLEASE CAREFULLY INSPECT PICTURES AND I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE MORE UPON REQUEST. I OF COURSE, NEVER USE STOCK PHOTOS IN MY ADS. RECORD & COVER PICTURED IS ALWAYS THE ONE YOU RECEIVE FROM ME.
Please no international bidders, sorry for the inconvenience.
