norm and jane over at Vinyl Record Talk have this news about grading vinyl. my preference is a rating of 1-10, with 10 being the best (this goes for album covers as well) I feel that a numeric system tells me more about a record than VG++, although that is up to debate. However, taking a look at the proposed system, I think it will work out well for both buyers and sellers, take a look and start the debate!:

norm and jane also give us our weekly look at Ebay sales and now are offering a new feature, a weekly breakdown of Beatles records sold on eBay:
Top 5 eBay Vinyl Record Sales - Week Ending 04/28/2012
This week only one record has made the Top 5 before, and that's the Ricardo Marrero LP on the TSG label, whose records never made it out of a garage until after the tax evasion charges. TSG was a short lived tax scam label for the purposes of taking inventory losses against another enterprise on quantities of records that were never actually pressed. Though often the music on these records was terrible and the recording poor, there were some exceptions like this week's #1.
This week's Top 5 is the first the will not include The Beatles. The Beatles will have their own Top 5 list starting this week. Beatles collectibles of all kinds, teeth included, have become very popular, and records are no exception. If we were to continue including The Beatles in a single weekly Top 5 list, it's likely there would be less and less room for all the other great records that are top tier collectibles.
1. LP - Ricardo Marrero and The Group "A Taste" TSG - $3,700.00
2. LP - Grannie "self-titled" SRT - $2,971.37
3. LP - Bodkin "self-titled" Private Pressing - $2,706.64
