Here are the grading guidelines I aspire to:

Mint or M: Still sealed or opened once but as new, never played, with no scuffs. The perfect record.

Near Mint or NM: I define NM as being almost mint. This grade is for the most part, the most widely used grade for records that appear virtually flawless. Virtually flawless records are not perfect. A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. The flaw should be very hard to see.

Excellent or EX: This is truly not my defined grade, however it is becoming more and more mainstream among collectors and sellers. It is also a very conservative grade for those who don't want to grade NM, for fear they may over grade the record. An excellent condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs which are visible but only slightly. The wear should be minimal. Any scratches that can be felt with your fingernail can NOT be called scuffs. Scuffs lay on top of the grooves. If any break in the grooves are felt, they ARE scratches. No scratches can make this grade!
Very Good or VG: If the flip side is not NM but still plays well (or great, no noise), VG is a conservative grade and will show wear, surface scuffs and some very light scratches. Surface scuffs are caused from blunt (not sharp) objects. Often the minor scuffs are caused from inner sleeves. The vinyl should still have a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. Sometimes holding the record up to a very bright light, you will see many tiny lines across the surface

Good or G (including the G+ and VG- grades): A good record will look very well played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However a Good record should still play. It will have distracting surface noise.

I try to describe precisely and grade conservatively: if you have any doubts check my feedback and bid in confidence. I can provide more detailed pictures, please feel free to ask!
