Guide to record condition

MINT: No scuffs, scratches, blotches, stains, labels, writing, tears or splits. Simply perfect.
NEAR MINT: A Record that may have one or two tiny, minor flaws such as light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of the sleeves that do not affect play.
EXCELLENT: A Record has been handled and played either very little or very carefully. The vinyl may have lost some but not all of it's original lustre or have a slight scratch that doesn't affect play.
VERY GOOD: A Record that displays visible signs of handling and playing such as loss of vinyl lustre, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. A VG record may look like it will have some audible surface noise when it is played, although any noise should not overwhelm the music or ruin the listening experience.
GOOD: The Record is well played, with any number of defects such as complete loss of surface sheen, obvious surface noise, etc.
