I mentioned to you the other day the Goldmine grading system:. for records. I request you ad to each of your descriptions the text below and asses each record according to the grade belowyou feel matches best. This is an accepted way to describe the records and provides a way for the bidder and seller to be on the same page with managing expectations. ( where problems arise)
Mint (M)
These are absolutely perfect in every way. Often rumored but rarely seen, Mint should never be used unless more than one person agrees that the record or sleeve truly is in this condition. There is no set percentage of the Near Mint value these can bring; it is best negotiated between buyer and seller.
Near Mint (NM or M-)A good description of a NM record is "it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time." In other words, it’s nearly perfect. Many dealers won’t use a grade higher than this, implying (perhaps correctly) that no record or sleeve is ever truly perfect.NM records
are shiny with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any "spindle marks" from someone trying to blindly put the record on the turntable. Major factory defects also must not be present; a record and label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. (NM records don’t need to be "never played"; a record used on an excellent turntable can remain NM after many plays if the disc is properly cared for.)NM covers have no creases, ring wear or seam splits of any kind.
Very Good Plus (VG+) or Excellent (EA good description of a VG+ record is "except for a couple of minor things, this would be Near Mint." Most collectors, especially the ones who play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record, especially if it is toward the high end of the grade (sometimes called VG++ or E+)
VG+ records
may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK too, such as tell-tale marks around the center hole. But repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration but it should be barely noticeableVG+ covers
should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom the most vulnerable section. A VG+ cover may have some defacing such as a cut-out marking.Very Good (VG)Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. That said, VG records – which usually sell for no more than 25 percent of a NM record – are among the biggest bargains in record collecting, because most of the "big money" goes for more perfect copies. For many listeners, a VG record or sleeve will be worth the money.
VG records have more obvious flaws than their counterparts in better shape. They lack most of the original gloss found on factory fresh records. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with your fingernail. When played, a VG record has surface noise, and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending. But the noise will not overpower the music otherwise. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it was in better shape.Lower Grades are not applicable.
