These records are graded using the VJM grading system, and were play tested using a Goldring L55 with a Stanton 500 cartridge and a 3.0ml TC stylus.
I have been collecting 78s for nearly 20 years, and will pack very carefully using sturdy double-walled boxes. I am happy to combine shipments on multiple wins to save on postage costs. Please request an invoice and wait for my response before paying. I can get up to 5 records in the initial postage band. UK postage on over 5 records will be £9.50 up to a maximum of 15 records per box.
If you have any questions, please ask!
VJM grading guide for 78s
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+ 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 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.
