CONDITION GRADING SYSTEM
Note: We base our grading system on our honest opinions as experienced collectors, sellers, and enthusiasts. Those opinions are based on over 30 years of buying, selling, trading and grading records in both our physical shop, here on Ebay, and shows around the world. After carefully reading our listings, If you as a buyer feel that our description and grading definitions do not match the criteria or definitions of your grading expertise - we strongly urge you to disregard our listing and buy from an alternative trusted broker of your choosing. As always, we welcome any and all questions prior to purchase. Thanks!
VISUAL GRADING DEFINITIONS FOR VINYL CONDITION:
Mint: The record is in a cover that is still sealed in original shrink wrap, or other. Sealed. Opened but with zero vinyl defects.
Near mint: Very slight imperfections. Possibly only played once, no scratches, perhaps only very slight scuffs from the cover.
Excellent: Only a couple marks and perhaps a couple of very light scratches, scuffs, or minor abrasions.
Very good: Has marks and light scratches but nothing major, only surface. An LP in this grade may well have a bit of surface noise. The level of how that is heard depends on your needle/stereo.
Good: Has a lot of marks, mainly only surface and more than likely a couple of very visible, deep looking scratches that are probably heard and some may skip. Definite surface noise will be heard.
Fair: Has noticeable surface marks and scratches that are deep, definitely audible, and more than likely, skip. Definite surface noise will be heard.
Poor: Just basically in terrible condition. We only list “poor” LPs if they are ultra rare or collectible for album art or other.
