(F) Fair....record is still just playable but it has not been cared for, obvious sign of wear with quite a few scratches and displays considerable surface noise

+/- indicates the record is in between the grades

These grading are made by visual inspection and by playing the record throughout. Any record that jumps or skips will not be listed..I realise the grading of records is really down to personal opinion and peoples opinions do differ (sometimes quite considerably) I try to be as fair as possible and would welcome any questions you may have and would be more than happy to give a more detailed description of an individual record.
