In response to an inquiry:
The record is free of visible damage to the playing surface, and has no scratches that can be felt.
Records are played in full with high quality earphones when grading, and in the case of this record all that could be picked up were some occasional, non-repetitive faint tics or light rustling, that are likely due to the presence of impurities in the grooves, as opposed to scratches or damage to the vinyl. Those could certainly be eliminated altogether if you have access to an ultrasonic cleaner.
Rest assured that any of the issues described above are not distractive and mostly noticeable when listening with headphones, hence the "barely affect play" language. The playback is excellent and very much deserving of a VG++ grade.
