NTW grades honestly — because collectors can smell fiction a mile off.
We use standard record grading (VG, VG+, NM, etc.) and describe both media and sleeve separately where relevant.

• Sealed: Factory sealed. Condition assumed mint, but we can’t inspect the media.

• NM (Near Mint): Practically flawless. Clean playback, minimal signs of handling.

• VG+: Light marks or faint sleeve rubs possible, but plays strong with no major issues.

• VG: Noticeable wear — surface marks, light noise in places, or visible sleeve wear — but still a solid, enjoyable copy.

• G / G+: Heavy wear. Expect noise, scuffs, or damage. Listed only when it’s a true artefact worth owning regardless.

If something has a pressing quirk, warp, mark, corner ding, split seam, cut-out, or anything else that matters — we’ll call it out plainly. When in doubt, message us and we’ll give you the straight answer (and extra photos if needed).
