Grading Scale: My grading scale is as follows:
SEALED, M-, NM, NM-, EX , EX, EX-, VG , VG, VG-, G . I do not sell anything lower than G . My records are visually and play graded to check for accuracy. My VG should have little to no surface noise according to my turntable using a Grado cartridge, and my EX gradings are equivalent to Goldmine s VG grading, just more descriptive within the grading spectrum of VG . My M- is open unplayed. My NM and NM- gradings are reserved for items opened once and played or essentially miniscule to no visible marks of any kind. Therefore, records that are often others NM-, I will default to EX this and high end VG records populate the EX grading . I generally default to VG on covers if the cover has any noticeable ringwear, surface wear, or seam splits. Please see abbreviation list. If you have any questions, please email me NO REISSUES UNLESS STATED AS SUCH
