Please see pics for condition issues.Do to the different way to clean a record, I only wipe the records off , to grade them. a finial cleaning will need to be done be new owner pryer to playing. The following is the grading scale that I use.
VINYL GRADES
SS (STILL SEALED)=Sealed at factory and never opened.
M (MINT)= Perfection, no flaws, defects, marks or otherwise indications of being handled or played.
NM (NEAR MINT)= The vinyl is virtually flawless, bright and shiny. A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches. The disc should play with no audible noise. The label is bright, clean and unmarked.
E (EXCELLENT)= Disc plays near perfectly, but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality. There can possibly be a hairline scratch or two but nothing that is obvious or affects play. Vinyl is bright and shiny; label is clean and unmarked.
VG+ (VERY GOOD +)= Some visible surface wear, very minor scratches and scuffs, but minimal impact on the sound quality. Vinyl will still have good luster; labels may have minor imperfections (small labels or initials, etc.) but otherwise clean.
VG (VERY GOOD)= Vinyl will have noticeable scratches or scuffs that cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. There will be no skips. Vinyl may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, tape marks, larger writing, etc. but still easily legible. There maybe wear or deformation of the spindle hole.
G (GOOD)= Well-played, dull, grayish vinyl with deeper scratches and wear causing distracting surface noise (hisses, pops, or cracks). The record will still play through without any skips. Labels may be significantly defaced or damaged.
F (FAIR)OR P (POOR)= There will be major noise, surface damage, deep scratches, and skips. These discs are basically to fill a collector desire to fill a space in a collection until a better one comes along.
ALBUM COVER GRADES
SS (STILL SEALED)= Album is still in the factory-applied shrink-wrapping.
M (MINT)= Absolutely perfect; no corner dings, marks, tears, dents, impressions from the disc, or other flaws. Cover should appear as if a record has never been inside.
NM (NEARMINT)= Very minor signs of wear or cover impressions. Art work is as close to perfection as possible.
E (EXCELLENT)= Minor disc impression or slight corner creases, no wrinkles, puckers, seam splits or writing on the cover. Art work is clean and unworn and there is no ink wear.
VG+ (VERY GOOD +)= Cover is clean but may have minor writing or marks and may show slight wear. There may be just the start of ring wear, where the disc has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying.
VG (VERY GOOD)= Covers are worn and used. Seams may be starting to split or may have been unobtrusively repaired with clear tape. There is moderate ring wear,but the art work is still attractive. There may be yellowing or discoloration and there may be larger writing, labels, or marks. Corners may have damage or creases andthere may be scratches or gouges that otherwise damage the art work.
G (GOOD)= Several (but not all) of the following flaws will apply: Seam splits, large marker writing, major seam splits, significant ring wear, damaged corners, tears, cuts, gouges, masking or duct tape seam repairs, or other flaws and damage. Again, probably only useful to fill a collection niche until something better can be found.
F (FAIR) OR P (POOR)= Trash, useable only to keep the record off the floor.
