CONDITION:  M-  MINT MINUS

STANDARD 45 RPM GRADING:

M-       Mint Minus (Near Mint)  Highest grade used. Has full or nearly full luster. Little or no sign of play, handling or storage marks. Probably only played a couple of times, very carefully.  Highly desirable condition.

VG++  Very Good Plus Plus (Excellent).   Most luster remains. Some indications of careful play. Has some mild groove wear. Generally, free from scratches or scuffs.  Very desirable condition.

VG+    Very Good Plus.   Still some decent luster. Shows moderate groove wear.  May have some minor scuffs and/or light scratches. Still a nice "above average" record, acceptable to most collectors. Do not be afraid of my VG+ grade, they are still nice records.

VG      Very Good.    Obvious groove wear with mostly, or fully grey grooves. Scuffs and/or scratches of an "average" used record. Often plays better than it looks.

VG-     Very Good Minus. Record shows heavy use, deeper grey, more scuffs and scratches. Plays with more surface noise but should play through.

G        Good.  Good enough to probably play through. A beat record that could skip, looks bad and is noisy.

SPLIT GRADE (like VG++ / VG+ ) indicates the record has a different grade on each side).
