RECORD AND COVER RATING GUIDE:
Most of our records and covers will fall in the 8, 9 & 10 rating. We don’t deal in anything less than a #6 unless it is REAL rare.
10. MINT - Record and cover/sleeve are perfect, like new, pristine and unused. Absolutely no flaws of any kind. Generally still sealed. Very few old records or covers/sleeves will make this rating.
9. NEAR MINT - Would be considered mint, except records in this rating, possibly have been played, but still look like brand new. Cover/sleeve might show minuscule spots of wear at seam, but one would have to look very hard to see anything.
8. VERY FINE - Excellent condition and very clean. Cover/sleeve shows only very minor wear at seam and/or corners. Record has been played, but there is not much evidence of use and certainly no scratches.
7. FINE - Very nice example. Only the slightest of surface wear on cover and/or some very minor wear at seam and/or corners. Record may show very minor use, possibility a minor hairline or two, but not audible. What most people call mint usually falls into this rating.
6. VERY GOOD - Cover/sleeve may have light wear at seam, corners, and possibly a small crease, scratch or a light smudge on surface, but very minor. Faint evidence of ring wear possibly starting to show. Record may show very light use from handling and a few hairline scratches, but still nothing audible.
5. GOOD - Cover/sleeve is still very presentable with some wear here and there, but nothing too serious. Still looks good in a frame. Ring wear still light, but becoming more evident. Light scratches in record could be audible, but nothing too bad.
4. FAIR - starting to show quite a bit of wear here and there, but still presentable. Possible tears at seams. Record shows use with scratches that will be somewhat obvious when played.
3 AND BELOW - Pretty much trashed. Don't waste your money.

Vintage versus New . . .
At the beginning of each record description, you will see the word VINTAGE or NEW. The word VINTAGE indicates you are purchasing an old original vinyl album that was produced in the 20th century. NEW indicates a reproduction or retro album that is currently available today.
