LP/Cover Grading Scale:
Here's a guideline for how I grade records. Not all records will fit "exactly" into a certain grade, and one should assume a certain amount of tolerances within each grade.
Assume grading to be "visual" unless noted. I grade under a powerful 100 watt bulb.
+/-: I use pluses and minuses to help indicate more or less issues in a certain grade. (+/-): I use parentheses to mean “maybe” (i.e. VG(+) means it may be closer to a plus).
Grades for vinyl :
M : new, un-played, perfect, usually sealed.
NM: like new but possibly carefully played a limited amount of times. Should play near perfect with almost no noise or imperfections. May show very faint imperfections from paper scuffs or tiny needle marks.
EX : as above with a few light needle marks, or a few light surface scuffs, and/or lightly audible marks. A very nice used record.
VG+: between VG and EX, no feelable scratches and will definitely play through with no skips or jumps.
VG : still showing gloss but lots of small scratches and scuffs or some light groove wear. A used/played record that should still play through without skips, but will have light surface noise throughout, pops, ticks, and maybe some light distortion/sibilance. I do not consider VG to be a complete junk grade.
VG- to G : any record in less than VG condition that I feel is still worth offering due to it’s rarity.
Grades for covers:
M : perfect. no wear, square flat corners, solid seams, spine etc., Usually sealed
NM : overall appearance of front and back near perfect but may have a very small problem such as a small corner ding/couple tiny spine chips, but nothing noticeable without close inspection.
EX : as above, nice "un-handled" feel, but may have more spine wear, a bent or dinged corner or two, very light ring wear, but rarely any splits or tears.
VG+: Between VG and EX (usually closer to an EX grade), NO major seem splits over a an inch or two, No visible water damage. Edge chipping and smaller splits possible, ring wear, and small name or writing possible but should be noted.
VG: still has a nice overall appearance, but may have the following defects: seam splits, spine splits, small tears, ring wear, writing, stains, water damage, stickers etc. in various degrees.
VG- to G : getting ugly, but for some reason still worth offering.
