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