Grading

How we grade

Every used record is cleaned, played on the house deck and graded on the same four steps.

  1. M

    Mint

    Unplayed or played once. No marks you can see or hear, sleeve as it left the pressing plant.

  2. NM

    Near Mint

    Played with care. A light sheen under the lamp, silent between tracks.

  3. VG+

    Very Good Plus

    Light marks you can see but barely hear. A soft crackle in the quiet passages, nothing that jumps.

  4. VG

    Very Good

    Loved and played. Surface noise in the gaps, but the music comes through clean. Priced to match.

How it ships

Packed like we would want it
