Mint M : Absolutely perfect in every way - certainly never
played, possibly even still sealed.
More on still sealed below .
Should
be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.
Near Mint NM or M- : A nearly perfect record.
Many dealers won t
give a grade higher than this implying perhaps correctly that no
record is ever truly perfect.
The record shows no obvious sign of wear.
A
45 rpm sleeve has no more than the most minor defects, such as almost
invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.
An LP jacket has
no creases, folds, seam splits or any other noticeable similar defect.
No cut-out holes, either.
And of course, the same is true of any other
inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, and the like.
Basically, Near
Mint looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and
removed the shrink wrap.
Very Good Plus VG : Shows some signs that it was played and
otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.
Record
surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight scuffs
or very light scratches that don t affect one s listening experience.
Slight warps that do not affect the sign are OK.
The label may have some
ring wear or discoloration, but is should be barely noticeable.
The
center hole is not misshapen by repeated play.
Picture sleeves and LP
inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turn-up corners, or a
slight seam-split.
An LP jacket my have slight signs of wear also and
may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was
taken out of print and sold at a discount.
In general, if not for a
couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.
All but
the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly
acceptable.
Very Good VG : Many of the defects found in a VG record are
more pronounced in a VG disc.
Surface noise is evident upon playing,
especially in soft passages and during the song s intro and fade, but
will not overpower the music otherwise.
Groove wear will start to be
noticeable, as will light scratches deep enough to feel with a
fingernail that will affect the sound.
Labels may be marred by writing,
or have tape or stickers or their residue attached.
The same will be
true of picture sleeves or LP covers.
However, it will not have all of
these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.
Good G , Good Plus G : Good does not mean bad A record in
Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play
through without skipping.
But it will have significant surface noise and
scratches and visible groove wear.
A jacket or sleeve has seam splits,
especially at the bottom or on the spine.
Tape, writing, ring wear or
other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
If it s a common item,
you ll probably find another copy in better shape eventually.
Pass it
up.
But if it s something you have been seeking for years, and the price
is right, get it.
Poor P , Fair F : The record is cracked, badly warped, and
won t play through without skipping or repeating.
The picture sleeve is
water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear
and/or writing.
The LP jacket barely keeps the LP inside it.
Inner
sleeves are fully seam split, and written upon.
