WHAT DO YOUR VINYL RATINGS MEAN?Unless otherwise noted, all records are visually graded -- there simply isn't time to playtest everything. That said, I have over 25 years of experience grading LPs and am a pretty good judge, imho, who tends to grade conservatively. This is why so many of my records are graded "only" Very Good. Mint: a mythical beast like the yeti. Near Mint: a basically flawless record with no marks or scuffs of any kind to the vinyl. You can expect this to play so cleanly you could easily fool someone into believing they're not listening to vinyl except for the moment the needle hits the record or just before it ends. Ex/VG++: Maybe a couple or three marks or scuffs to the vinyl which do not affect playback. Probably a little noise at the very beginning and/or end of sides and/or possibly between tracks but you won't hear it when music is playing. VG+: Some, but not many, marks or scuffs on the vinyl which mostly do not affect playback. You might hear a little noise during track fadeouts or during very quiet sections of music but never during normal to loud parts and even then, only a few times, not throughout the entirety of a side or LP. Will satisfy most collectors and all casual listeners. Very Good: A record which sounds the way most people imagine them to in their head. Light pops and or crackles which are noticeable if you're paying attention, especially during quiet passages and during fadeouts, but which never overwhelm the music. There will be marks, scuffs, and possibly even scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail but no recurring clicks. This will satisfy 75% of collectors and almost 99% of casual listeners. In other words "Very Good" means exactly what it says. VG-: The marks/scuffs/scratches to the vinyl are much more noticeably affecting playback but it's still an overall pleasurable listening experience. Possibly a recurring click on one or two tracks but not for long. G+: The vinyl is covered in marks and scratches and surface noise is almost always audible and definitely overwhelms the music in places. Still listenable but, at least sometimes, disappointingly so. Good: A very noisy record covered in marks and scratches. Really the best thing I can say about such an LP is it plays through without skipping. I generally avoid selling records in this condition unless they're very collectible or otherwise very desirable. Poor: A record which skips, has a missing chunk, or is otherwise unplayable from beginning to end. I don't even bother to sell records in such condition. HEY! WHAT ABOUT THE JACKET/SLEEVE CONDITION? Well, that's what all the pictures are for. The grades are just to give you a general idea. If you need better photos or a more detailed picture of some specific part of the jacket or label, just ask -- I am more than happy to provide whatever you need in this regard.
