Near Mint (NM or M-)The RecordA nearly perfect record.The record should show no obvious signs of wear.The SleeveA 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like.Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. Near Mint Minus (NM-)May have been played once onlyMay have a couple of spindel marks but not moreMay have a couple of paper scuff but not more.Still prestine, like new Excellent or Very Good Plus Plus (EX of VG++)May have more then a few spindel marksMay have some paper scuffs, rub marks but NO scratches.Any blemishes are only cosmetic. Very Good Plus (VG+) - NO seam splits unless statedThe RecordA 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 signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don’t affect one’s listening experiences.Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK".The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable.The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play.The Sleeve:Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split.An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole.In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. Very Good (VG)The RecordSurface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise.Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with 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 Sleeve:Picture sleeves or LP covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached.However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.
