The condition of the record is VG+. The record itself has light scuff marks and light scratches throughout but they do not affect playback. The condition of the sleeve is VG with some minor scratches and wrinkles. Some indents are visible when viewed at an angle(at some point someone used this as a writing surface). Also, the spine has a small area of damage and there is some light staining around the outer edge. Please see photos for a better idea of the condition.
I have used the Goldmine Standard as a guide to grading this record and it is listed below.
I am not a professional Grader so this is my opinion on the grade of the record. Your opinion may differ but I have tried my best to match the grading system. Please look at the pictures provided to help with your decision to purchase. You have 14 days (my return policy) to decide if the record(s) meet(s) your expectations. I have created special shipping boxes to help prevent damage during shipping. Please use the same 2 piece box to ship it back if you decide to return it. You will be responsible for the cost of return shipping.

If you have any cause for complaint whatsoever, please contact me immediately so that I can resolve any issue you have fairly and quickly. I am very reasonable and do not have any problem with giving you a refund. However, if you are unhappy with any item that I have sent, please DO NOT keep this to yourself and then later post a neutral or negative comment. Please contact me immediately. On the other hand, if you are more than satisfied with your purchase, please leave positve feedback and I will gladly do the same for you.
MINT (M)
These are absolutely perfect in every way. I will only give this grade to a brand new record still in shrink wrap with no visible damage.
NEAR MINT (NM OR M-)
A good description of an 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.
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 be absent; a record with a label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. (NM records don’t have 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 are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+)
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 the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale 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 noticeable.
VG+ covers should have only minor wear. A VG+ cover might have some very minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint.
Very Good (VG)
Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. 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 a 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.
Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. Many collectors who have jukeboxes will use VG records in them and not think twice. They remain a fine listening experience, just not the same as if it were in better shape.
VG covers will have many signs of human handling. Ring wear in the middle or along the edges of the cover where the edge of a record would reside, is obvious, though not overwhelming. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides, though it won’t be obvious upon looking. Someone might have written or it or stamped a price tag on it, too.
Good (G),
Good Plus (G+)
or Very Good Minus (VG–)
The record still plays through without skipping but it has significant surface noise and groove wear, and the label is worn, with significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. A Good to VG– cover has ring wear to the point of distraction, has obvious seam splits on sight and may have even heavier writing, such as, for example, huge radio station letters written across the front to deter theft.
POOR (P)
and Fair (F)
Records are cracked, impossibly warped, or skip and/or repeat when an attempt is made to play them. Covers are heavily damaged.
