Grading Scale. Vinyl. Then cover.

I have been told my grading is tough compared to most. So, to clarify I am listing my guidelines for grades.

Mint= Never opened. Perfect. For both.

Near Mint= Opened. But, can’t really tell the difference. Only difference between mint, and near mint on a cover, is the shrink being slit over the opening.  

VG++ = A small handful of paper scuffs and, or hairlines at the most.

Cover, Very, very slight shelf wear. Mostly at the opening. No writing, splits,tears, stains, or creases.   

VG+ = There are a few hairlines and purely  superficial marks on the record. None that affect the clarity of the music.

Cover,  Same as VG++, but the beginnings of ring wear. And, will see past the laminate on the corners. Very slight shelf wear if any. No writing, splits, stains, ortears.   

VG = A number of superficial marks. None of whichI can feel with the tips of my fingers. But, may cause some very minor background noise. But, nothing that will interfere with the very nice, overall listening experience. 

Cover, Same as VG+. But, may have some mild creasing. Shelf wear and ring wearwill be a bit more evident. Spine will still be intact and, readable for the most part. No splits, tears, stains, or writing.

VG- = Everything in VG. And, maybe have one or two light scratches that will sound. Still a nice record.

Cover, Everything listed in VG. But, might have writing on the cover, a small split,(less than 1”) at the opening, a stain or a small tear. Spine may be less readable. Still a very good cover. But, with 1 or 2 flaws.
