I strictly use the VJM grading system to grade 78rpm records. Please see VJM grade in title and in description below. All items will be graded in accordance to this system, so please read carefully to ensure that you fully understand the condition of the item listed.
The VJM Record Grading System.
N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
N- (78) M- (LP). Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ (78) VG+ (LP). Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E (78) VG (LP). Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- (78) VG- (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.
V+ (78) G+ LP. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. LP: Below average with scuffs and scratches on fewer than half the tracks. No skips or repeat grooves.
V (78) G (LP). Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- (78) G- (LP). Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. LP: Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable.
G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive.
F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P (78). Unplayable.
NB: Damage to labels and jackets (LP) should be noted whenever present.

Shipping:
I package 78s safely and professionally, using the 'sandwich' method to safely tuck the disc away in plenty of styrofoam and a well-taped and labeled box. NOTHING matters more to me than your record arriving in one piece, safely, and as described.
Packages ship from THAILAND. I will NOT ship without tracking, NO EXCUSES. It may be cheaper, but I can easily be scammed on PayPal when a buyer claims that an untracked item hasn't arrived when it actually has, and PayPal sides with the buyer every time. If you do not want to pay for tracking, please do not bid.Payment:
For payment, I accept PayPal ONLY. No direct deposit or credit cards as I am not registered to receive either.
