Grading
Used Items: We grade the 'Cover' first, then the 'Media'.

On 'New' items that may be still sealed but have cut out cuts (or promo cuts) on the cover, we list the item as new, SS (still sealed) and grade the cover second.

We use the Goldmine standard grading on used items, as follows:

"Goldmine Standard" grading:

SS Still Sealed
Never opened. Flawless, with no damage whatsoever.

M- Mint Minus
Has been opened, but is still flawless
with no damage whatsoever.

VG+ Very Good Plus

Vinyl: May have scuff marks and signs of some wear but
will still play almost perfectly throughout, with only
"barely detectable" crackles or pops. A slight noise at the
begining is allowable, but the remainder must be nearly flawless.

Cover: May only have the slightest signs of normal wear.

VG Very Good

The majority of records (worth selling) fall under this grade.

Vinyl: May crackle, pop or make other annoying noises, but only
occasionally,never continuously, and not more loudly than the
music being listened to.

Cover: Normal used cover wear such as ring wear and split seams.
If there is abnormal damage such as tears or markings,
but the seller still feels that it qualifies as a "VG",
the damage must be described in comments attached to the item.

G+ Good Plus

Vinyl: May have continuous crackles, pops, etc... but not so loud as to
make the music completely unlistenable or unenjoyable to the
casual listener.


Cover: More than normal wear and tear.


If the above policy leaves any doubts, please refer to GEMM's generally accepted Grading Standard
