Conditions and Grading
There's nothing we hate more than a badly graded record! (Except for a badly packaged one)
GRADING - here's a quick run-down of the used standards.
M (mint) = The record and sleeve are brand new, no signs of use whatsoever.
M- (mint minus) = the cover/vinyl are almost like new. Faint traces a.i. a minimal dent, a microscopic mark, a tiny hairline prevent it from being total mint.
EX (excellent) = the cover/record is in excellent condition, the signs of ageing are minimal. The cover has little wear, if any it'll be specified. The vinyl plays great, except for accidental crackles, which will be specified. The labels are clean, a mere few marks around the spindle may occur.
VG+ (very good plus) = Cover/record show signs of multiple use, but holding through. Wear at edges, corners, spine do appear, but nothing serious. Vinyl will/may have hairlines, scuff marks, crackly parts, but still in a condition worth enjoying the music.
VG (very good) = a no-good grading standard! It's either vg+ or vg-! To avoid any possible debate or disappointment. What you read is what you get.
VG- (very good minus) = (some) Things start getting bad. Cover and/or record have started loosing their initial qualities, hence the first, clearly visible signs of deterioration. Record may play with ocassional pops/clicks/hisses, labels may show signs of heavy rotation.
Record and/or vinyl is downgraded due to major flaw (tear/scrach/stick/jump), which will ne noted. Don't expect anything fancy!
G (good) = Probably worth listing, just not falling apart yet. May play OK, but something is wrong here.
F (fair) = Hey Lord, don't ask me Questions. This is the stuff cheapskates buy and complain afterwards. Do not buy if not familiar with grading standards.
P (poor) = There should be an awful good reason to list this; maybe the cover is still good, and an opportunity to upgrade your copy is knocking.
Goldmine Grading Standard:
Mint [M]: Absolutely perfect in every way - certainly never played, possibly even still sealed. (More on still sealed below). Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.
------------------------------------------------------------
Near Mint [NM or M-]: A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record shows no obvious sign of wear. A 45 rpm sleeve has no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.
An LP jacket has no creases, folds, seam splits or any other noticeable similar defect. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same is true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, and the like. Basically, Near Mint looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap.
------------------------------------------------------------
Very Good Plus [VG+]: Shows some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK.
The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but is should be barely noticeable. The center hole is not misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turn-up corners, or a slight seam-split. An LP jacket my have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.
In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable.
------------------------------------------------------------
Very Good [VG]: Many of the defects found in a VG+ record are more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise is evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during the song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as will 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 picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.
------------------------------------------------------------
Good [G], Good Plus [G+]: Good does not mean bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear.
A jacket or sleeve has seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object. If it's a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Poor [P], Fair [F]: The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and/or writing. The LP jacket barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, and written upon.
Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each.
