78 RPM SET SALE
ORDERING, POSTAGE, ETC.
Please email first to guarantee record availability. Domestic postage is $6.00 for 1-3 records. For multiple purchases, keep in mind that the weight of 78s varies widely so I will quote you the cost of postage. Domestic shipping is by USPS media mail w/ delivery confirmation. This includes a new Bags Unlimited 10" mailer box and at least 4 cardboard pads- I know how to pack 78s so that they will arrive unbroken. I can also ship via USPS Priority mail for an additional charge. Insurance against loss of a "bullet-proof" package is still your option; fee added to final amount. We welcome overseas orders and will quote you the actual cost for USPS First Class Airmail (up to 4 pounds) plus USD$2.00 for packaging materials.
Note on visual grading- Standard N, E, V, G, F, and P; (+) or (-) denotes range within grade. Records with two grades refer to sides A/B.
'N-' records are N.O.S. and look unplayed. An E+ record looks new at first glance, probably played a half-dozen times or so. An 'E' record shows signs of being out of its sleeve but plays with minimal background. Full shine w/ insignificant scuffing and clean labels. An E- record will show some light scuffs but no audible problems except a very light, even background. A V+ record may be a slightly greyed E or shiny with some scuffing or light rubs- none of which affect play beyond a light hiss. A 'V' record has retained some gloss but may show stack rubs, scuffs, light scratches, etc. In other words- Used but acceptable, and still enjoyable when played. A V- record will still play well above the moderate background. A 'G' record looks and sounds well-played but no skips or repeats. 'F' and 'P' are reserved for deeply scratched or impaired records. In addition to visual grading is audio sampling of overall play quality utilizing a Dual 1019 turntable, Shure M78S cartridge/3 mil stylus tracking @ 2 1/2 gm, and dual-stage RIAA correction.
