VOID RECORDS GRADING SCALE

Sealed
Jacket sealed shut in shrink wrap; disc sold ungraded or “as is”. no returns on sealed records

NM
Appears unplayed and will bear no marks, sleeve scuffs, or scratches. We seldom use this grade.
M- As close to M as possible, most unplayed open records will be here

VG++
May have one or two visible imperfections (i.e. sleeve scuffs, faint scratches, or other superficial marks) that will not affect play.

VG+
A few visible imperfections. These may include sleeve scuffs, light scratches, or other superficial marks.

VG
Same imperfections found on VG+ records but in slightly greater numbers. Records graded VG and above will typically not have
any scratches that are deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.

VG-
A number of visible imperfections; the presence of a considerable number of light scratches will force a VG- grade, as will the
presence of significant isolated defects such as scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.

G
Pervasive imperfections of varying degrees including both light scratches and scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
G+ and G- are used to indicate stronger and weaker copies within this range.

cutout holes, cut corners, sawmarks, ringwear, woc, will be noted
