There may be Notes on runoff in china marker (to my wife when I'm gone) - Easily removable VJM Record Grading System - please see below
Postage is $5.00 domestically and I'll ship up to 8 items in one parcel International shipping is the actual cost of postage and packing materials (generally over $25)
Immediate payment NOT NECESSARY as you may want to accumulate winnings to save money on postage. If you could pay within 7 days of close of the 1st auction you win, it would be appreciated. If you need longer to pay, just let me know.
I grade VISUALLY, mostly, but if it is an expensive item, I also test play them. I don't want anyone to be disappointed !!!!! I'm a collector too (I've got over 25,000 and have been collecting since the early 1960s). Grading is conservative giving a lower grade if there is any question.
VJM Record Grading System:
E+ (78) Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E (78) Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- (78) Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
V+ (78) 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.
V (78) Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- (78) 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+ (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.
