Record Grades


Each entry indicates Artist, Title, Label and catalog #, format (LP/45), condition, category, comments and price. All prices are in US dollars.  Unless stated under “notes”, every record is an original issue for the label with the catalog number given. Here is a brief explanation of our grading system, followed by an overview of abbreviations and comments.


SS (Still Sealed)  - Sealed at factory and never opened. Disc is assumed to be undamaged and mint, but this cannot be proven until the album is actually opened and the disc is examined.

NM or M- (Near Mint or Mint Minus)     - This is the highest grade that I will assign to opened, handled records. The vinyl is virtually flawless, bright and shiny. A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches.  The label is bright, clean and unmarked unless otherwise noted. Covers will be almost perfect with only very minimal imperfections that are barely visible unless
otherwise noted (see abbreviations key below).

EX (VG++) (Excellent or Very Good ++) -  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 unless otherwise noted. Covers may have very light wear and/or small corner bends or a corner cut.

VG+ (Very Good Plus)  - 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 but are otherwise clean. Covers may show 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. Covers may have slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying.

VG (Very Good)  - Vinyl will have noticeable scratches or scuffs that cause minor surface noise, but do not overpower the music. Vinyl may appear somewhat dull and grayish. Labels may have small tears, tape marks, larger writing, etc. but are still easily legible. There may be wear or deformation of the spindle hole. Covers are worn and used. Seams may be starting to split or may have been unobtrusively repaired with clear tape.

G (Good) - Well-played, dull looking vinyl with deeper scratches and wear causing distracting surface noise (hisses, pops, cracks and other nasties).  Labels may be significantly defaced or damaged. Covers may have major seam splits, large marker writing, significant ring wear, damaged corners, tears, cuts, gouges, masking or duct tape seam repairs, or other flaws and damage.

F (Fair)  - Unless the record is particularly rare, I would not try to sell a record in this condition. There will be major noise, surface damage, deep scratches, and skips. Attempting to listen to these discs will be painful. These discs are basically trash unless a collector desires one to fill a space in a collection until a better one comes along. Covers will be trash, useable only to keep the record off the floor.
