How Records are graded

As our items are donated, they may appear with dust and the odd finger mark to the surface and therefore may require cleaning 

  • EXCELLENT . Item has been played but surface appears to be clear with no signs of scratches or scuffs.  Item may have some light dust build-up.  The sleeve will have minimal corner/edge/shelf wear but no dents or damage.

  • VERY GOOD . Vinyl surface may have a few light surface marks and some dust build-up. Cover may have some light signs of wear to edges & corners. No dirt or marks.

  • GOOD . Vinyl has a number of light lines and scuffs but still looks very playable with no major issues, may be in need of cleaning but ultimately a practical, playable record. Sleeve has issues such as corner/edge wear and some dents, possibly some light sticker residue. May show light dirt.

  • FAIR. The vinyl has obviously been played a number of times and may have lost its sheen. The will also be a number of surface marks. Sleeve will have discolouring, creasing and general wear.

  • POOR . Surface has deep scratches, dirt and scuffs. Likely to play with skips or be unplayable altogether.  Sleeve is torn, worn or dirty. Generally this is reserved for a collectable record.

We grade all items visually and do not have the facilities to sound test. Please note that these are used recordings and as such may have some dust and/or scratches which may affect the sound quality of recordings.
