GRADING STANDARDS:

Mint - Never played prior to grading with perfect dead quiet surfaces. Sealed records are not necessarily mint, since they may have been manufactured with pressing defects or poor-quality vinyl formulations. I almost never give this grade.

Near Mint NM -- Record has been previously played, but sounds as new. A tiny bit of surface noise and/or a few light tics or pops are acceptable if these were likely present in the record when it was originally manufactured. No scuffs, scratches, or other visual marks.

Excellent EX -- Record shows some signs of wear, with light surface noise and/or some tics and pops and/or a scratch which sounds very briefly and quietly. These flaws are sufficiently minor that the do not distract from the music. Visually, there may be some light scuffing and/or one or two short light scratches

Very Good+ VG+ -- Record shows signs of wear, with light surface noise and/or some tics and pops and/or a scratch which sounds briefly. These flaws are sufficient to occasionally distract from the music, but note that the record is completely playable and will still provide a great deal of listening pleasure. Visually, there may be some scuffing and a few light scratches.

I generally do no sell records that grade below VG+
