How We Grade
Over ten years of grading nearly a million albums, Shuga Records has developed
a consistent - and conservative - method for objectively grading the condition of
everything we sell. All recordings are visually inspected under high-intensity lights,
using our customized grading system.
New Sealed
Mint SS
When someone says something s Mint condition, this is what they re talking about. The album is sealed in its original packaging and has never been played.
Mint- M-
This is the highest grade for records that have been played. The album is in excellent condition and shows no visible signs of wear or damage that will affect sound quality.
VG
While not flawless, the condition is very good, showing only minimal signs of use. Any visible blemishes should have minimal affect on play quality, though light surface noise maybe present at very quiet portions or between tracks. This is a record that should satisfy all but the most strict of collectors. There may be slight ring or cover wear, or minor writing on the cover.
VG
Vinyl may have scratches and/or other visual blemishes, but should play through without skipping or repeating. Light to moderate surface noise and/or crackle may be present, however not overly distracting. Covers may have moderate ring and/or edge wear, cut-outs / hole punches, or a moderate seam splits.
VG- and below
Let s be honest: sound quality is low and the cover may be in very poor shape. We consider any item graded at or below VG- as a LOW GRADE item. We only sell albums rated VG- and above unless a record is so rare that its presence in the collection transcends the poor quality of the vinyl or cover.
Customer Service
Please always email us with any problems or questions or feel free to call our help desk and info line. Operators are available 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Please leave a message if no one answers. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
Return Policy
All records are guaranteed to be in the condition stated or you may return it within 4 weeks and receive a full refund, postage excluded. The Quality Control Sticker must be intact and un-tampered with on the LP, and Still-Sealed items must be returned sealed in order to be eligible for a refund.
