Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as well light scratches, some of the scratches might cause clicks, sleeves and labels might have stickers, pen marks, cello-tape, spine splits and other marks.


Good / Good Plus (G+) = Generally worth 10-15% of Near Mint value, all defects from above can be present on Vinyl or Sleeve, Will play through with significant surface noise and deep scratches which will cause clicks
