HOW WE GRADE

We look at everything about a record -- Its playing surface, its label, its edges -- under a strong light. Then, based on our overall impression, give it a grade based on the following criteria:

SS or Factory Sealed: Still Sealed & in factory condition

M: Mint - We don't use this grade.

M-: Mint Minus - a near perfect, probably unplayed record

VG+: A Very Good Plus record will show 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.

VG: Very Good - a used, reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still quite nice.

VG-: Very Good Minus - significant wear and marks and usually quite noticeable surface noise.

G+: Good Plus. In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up records.

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 writing.

Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each.

PLEASE NOTE: WE USUALLY DO NOT GRADE RECORD COVERS/ JACKETS. WE DO OUR BEST IN SHOWING YOU THE FRONT AND BACK PICTURE OF THE COVER/JACKET, UNLESS THE COVER/JACKET IS TORN, ETC. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS RE THE COVER/JACKET, JUST SEND US AN E-MAIL WITH ANY QUESTINS YOU MAY HAVE.
