The Insects – She's A Pest 45, Garage Rock, 1966, California
Media: Acceptable Minus (A-)= The vinyl has heavy light surface wear/marks/scratches on both sides. Nothing that's really deep. No skips or ticks. Random pops, crackling, and background noise throughout. The music is clean and sounds powerful and the background noise is mainly heard at beginning/end. Background noise really does not overpower music by any means, in my personal opinion at least. Definitely sounds better than it looks. Label wearing/marks and "x" written in Red pencil on both sides of the labels.  Sleeve: Comes in generic paper and plastic sleeves.
NOTE: The media was tested, please read above for a breakdown, and a recorded video of the record on the turntable with audio is available.

Condition Breakdown (Vinyl)
Poor (P) = Vinyl will have heavy surface wear or scuffs, deep scratches, and may not play without skipping, feedback, or background noise. Jackets will more than likely have heavy wearing, tearing, seam splits, liquid staining, writing or tapped portions. This grade will only be used if the record is highly valuable or rare, and is worth the time to sell.
Acceptable (A) = Vinyl will have at the least moderate surface wear/scuffs or scratches. Play may be affected in some capacity (popping, background noise, or feedback). Jackets will have moderate wearing, tearing, writing, creasing, writing, splits, ect. 
Very Good (VG) = Vinyl was well taken care of. Light surface marks/scuffs or scratches. Basically a used record that was played more than once, but is in good condition. Playback may or may not be affected to some capacity. Jackets will have cover wearing, mild tearing, crease bends or stress lines, Edge and corner wearing or dings, and ring impressions. Possibly some writing or aftermarket stickers, cut-outs, or bending/folding.
Very Good Plus (VG+) = Vinyl has mild or minimum surface wear/scuffs/marks. Possible scuffs or marks that result from normal storage, removal, or insertion from paper inner sleeves. Light label wear, writing, or stickers. Jackets will have minimal or mild wearing, creasing, bends. Slight edge or corner wear/dings. Mild spine wear or ring impressions.
Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) = Vinyl is in great condition. Practically no surface wear/scuffs/scratches. The only surface wear will be as a result of storage, removal, or insertion from paper inner sleeves over time (general storage wear). Jackets will be in great condition. Practically free of any noticeable wear, tearing, creasing, marks, or dents. May still contain a minimal amount of wear, such that results from normal storage on a shelf or in a box for an extended period of time. Besides SEALED records, this will be the highest grade I will use in my listings.
Near Mint (NM) = Vinyl is SEALED and is presumed untouched. Jackets will also be SEALED and contain no noticeable or damaging characteristics (dents, tears in plastic seal, or cut-outs).
Inserts or special Items = In most instances, I will briefly mention if any inner sleeves or inserts are present. If I do not mention the presence of a specific insert or special item, DO NOT ASSUME it is included. If not mentioned, it likely is not included.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: Vinyl grading is conducted on a visible scale. NOT PLAY TESTED!! Although a record may appear to be in great condition, playback issues could potentially arise. The mastering and pressing process was not perfect, and some records may contain issues that I have no control over. The needle used to play a record may need to be replaced. Many unpredictable factors are involved with records.
