As a result, they are pressed when the press is at its optimum with likely very little wear, and the reason why these versions are cherished by Audiophiles looking for top quality. Grading Vinyl Grading EX/NM Sleeve Grading EX Comments All vinyl Play Tested and play through great with no issues noticed.
These do appear to have been stored and not played for while. I was experience the odd crackle but realised this was down to dusty grooves. Visually amazing condition.
Sleeves have the odd dinged corner but in amazing, solid condition. Grading System From 20th Jan 2024 I Will be using the Goldmine Grading System as follows: MINT
- A record that is in perfect condition and has never been played.
- I will only use this grading if the record is sealed.
- The record appears to have never been played (or has been played very few times).
- The record has no visible signs of wear or damage.
- The cover has no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or any other noticeable defects.
(PLEASE NOTE: I have elected to use EX as opposed to Goldines VG+. In the interest of clarity, I will not use the VG+ grading to represent a top end VG)
- A record that has been played but is still in excellent condition.
- Defects are of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole.
- Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences.
- Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK".
- The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.
- Spindle marks may be present.
- The cover/box may have slight signs of wear and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner.
- In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.
- The record has obviously been played.
- Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise.
- Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
- Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of covers and will show obvious signs of wear and tear.
- The record has obviously been played.
- A record that has been heavily played and may skip or repeat. There may be noticeable noise or distortion on the recording.
- The Sleeve has obvious marks, tears and rips.
