Please Do Not Pay until you receive MY invoice - AGAIN: Do not use eBay checkout as it does not combine multiple item purchases to correctly discount/combine your shipping. 

Discs over $50 will be shipped priority in a double-wall box as media is especially hard on 12 Inchers! I will cover insurance.

Please note BEFORE BIDDING: Overseas shipping of 12 INCH 78's is very expensive...and there is not a USPS flat rate box that is large enough to accomodate 12" 78's

Overseas: 1st 78 FIRST CLASS is  $38       Additional 78's to be quoted

Canada:    1st 78 FIRST CLASS is  $27       Additional 78's to be quoted

I will not compromise shipping safety to save POSTAGE COST.

Over 45 Years accurately grading & properly packing records.

All Records conservatively graded by the VJM Record Grading System(vjm.biz):    

N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

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.

Records expertly packed in sturdy new oversize boxes with lots of cardboard & peanuts to insure safe arrival.
