E+ (78) Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. There are store stock records in this collection which will be in description.


E  (78) Still very shiny, near new looking, with minor signs of wear, a few inaudible scuffs and/or minor label imperfection as noted in description.

.

E- (78)  Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record and/or more scuffs or a light scratch not affecting playback.


V+ (78) 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 graying 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.
