My 78 RPM grading scale:
N As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
N- Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
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. No skips or repeat grooves.
V Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- 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.
G+ Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
G- Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive.
F Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P Unplayable.
Payment must be received within 7 days of your purchase. PayPal is the only form of payment I can accept. If you have multiple purchases, please let me know so I can send you an invoice with your discounted shipping and handling charges.
For my customers in the United States, there will be no additional charge for the 2nd 45 shipped in the same package. After the 2nd 45, you'll only pay 50 cents for each additional 45 you purchase. After a certain point, over 13 ounces, I can't ship these first class so I will use media mail (or Priority if you choose) for multiple records. Due to their different sizes, 45s and LPs will not be shipped together. If you plan on purchasing two different formats, you will have to pay separate shipping charges. We both want these records to arrive to you safely. For combined shipping & handling charges for non-U.S. customers, please write to me with the exact list of LPs you wish to purchase and I will give you the shipping quote.
I will only accept a return if for some reason the item isn't as described. If any damage incurs while in transit, that is obviously not my fault. I encourage the use of shipping insurance on all orders, but that's completely up to you. Only the actual cost of the item(s) will be refunded if the item is returned within 7 days. I cannot refund shipping and/or handling costs.
I don't feel like my grading is liberal nor is it conservative. I simply state the grade as I see it with my eyes and hear it with my ears. Just to clarify, NM = Near Mint; VG = Very Good; and a + or - will make it a slightly higher or slightly lower grade, respectively. I rarely list anything less than VG but when I do, it'll be something outstanding. G = Good; F = Fair, and P = Poor. If there is anything remarkable, I will make note of it after the grade. Regarding pictures of labels, please take note. Spindle marks do not always show up on digital photographs, don't ask me why. If spindle marks are something that bothers you, please e-mail me and ask if the listed record has them unless I have mentioned it.
Overall, I'm very concerned with customer satisfaction. If you're courteous with me, I'll be the same with you. Please consider this before leaving negative feedback. If something isn't as I have described it above, please bring it to my attention promptly. I'm only human and I know you are too, so you and I both know what it's like to make a mistake every now and then.
