The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet.
booklet or poster are in perfect condiition.
Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent EX The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
Very Good VG The record has obviously been played many times, but displayes no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good G The record has been played so much that the sound quality has notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc Fair F The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
Poor P The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad B The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler CD s and CASSETTES As a general rule CD s and Cassettes either play perfectly - inwhich case they are in Mint condition - or they don t, in which case their value is minimal.
Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes.
CD s are difficult to grade visually they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly.
Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves.
In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves Remember to check out my other items to take advantage of combined shipping PLEASE SEE THE LARGER PHOTOS AT THE END OF THE LISTING
