RECORD GRADING
NEW VINYL: As a result of the vinyl revolution of the past few years, these are new factory pressings. The Lps are sealed and unplayed. In many cases, the reissues are better pressings than the originals.
SEALED: Sealed store stock, still in shrink wrap, never opened, never played.
(NM) NEAR MINT: Looks new, possibly un-played.
(VG+) VERY GOOD PLUS: Shows a few light surface marks, nothing that would affect play.
(VG) VERY GOOD: Shows light scuffs, used but not abused. There will be light surface noise in areas and/or occasional pops or clicks.
(VG-) VERY GOOD MINUS: Shows surface marks that can be felt, plays with clicks and pops.
(G) GOOD: Playable but very used, lots of background noise. Buyer should view a record like this as a filler until a better copy comes along.
SOL = Sticker on Label
WOL = Writing on Label
WOJ = writing on jacket
COM = cut out marking
PRO = marked as promo
Most vinyl listings will have one or two grades. First is always for the vinyl, second for the jacket. If there is one grade (example: 45) the one grade is for both sides. If one side has more marks than the other it will be noted in the listing.
