I'm going to use a variation of the GOLDMINE GRADING guidelines...It's similar to how I grade my board games, and hopefully will be an accurate representation of the records...Again, keep in mind that many of the records are not going to be in the best of condition...

NEAR MINT [NM]: A nearly perfect record. The record shows no overt sign of wear, and the LP jacket will be the same.

FINE [F]: Record surface may show some small signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or light scratches that don't affect the sound. Record cover/label may have slight wear. Inner sleeve may have slight wear, or slight seam splits.

VERY GOOD [VG]: Vinyl may have groove wear/light scratches (deep enough to feel) and audible surface noise. Label may have writing, or tape/stickers/residue. Cover may have writing, or tape/stickers/residue.

GOOD [G]: May have significant surface noise, scratches and groove wear. LP cover/Inner sleeve will have seam splits, tape, writing, stains, etc, but still present somewhat decently. Should play without skipping.

POOR-FAIR [P-F]: Record could be cracked, warped, badly scratched, or skip. LP jacket/Inner sleeve may have heavy seam splits, tape, stains, writing, stains, etc. Pretty bad shape. If this was a game, I'd use it for parts, or as a placeholder until something better comes along.
