Side A,  SWEET MOSES.  Visual VG+, playback VG+.  Side B, GOD GAVE NOAH THE RAINBOW SIGN.  Visual VG+, playback VG+.  Nice disc, has some surface noise but plays well.  Two great sides by A. P. & Co.

This is my grading system for 78's to match up with EBay's grading scale.  I grade 78's by visual and playback.  I may use +/- for a disc that falls between grades.  I inspect my discs closely.  If there are any surface lams, cracks or rim chips I will mention them in the description.

M= Almost impossible to find 78.  New and unplayed in the original sleeve.

NM=  A very rare 78.  Looks and plays like new.  No scratches, scuffs, or manufacturer defects.  Labels are perfect.

EX=  A highly collectible 78.  Very shiny, will have only a few light scratches or scuffs per side and show no groove wear.  Labels are nearly perfect with only the slightest of defects.  Playback may have a few light ticks or pops.  Surface noise will be minimal.

VG+= A collectible, above average condition 78.  Shiny but may have a few dull areas, maybe some light exposure fade along edges.  There will be more than a few light scratches or scuffs per side but no deep scratches.  There may be light groove wear.  Labels will show wear but still look nice.  Playback will have ticks, pops, and surface noise but is still enjoyable and comfortable to listen too. 

VG=  An average condition 78.  Dull finish, moderate even wear throughout.  Will have numerous light scratches or scuffs per side, if there are any deep scratches I will note it on the description. Labels will show wear but are readable.  Playback will have ticks, pops, and surface noise that is becoming uncomfortable but does not overpower music.

G= Poor condition 78.  Seriously worn and scratched.  Labels may or may not be readable.  Playback is plagued by noise and is uncomfortable to listen too.  Mainly used as a filler for a hard to find disc.  

SHIPPING= I will ship anywhere in the world.  If you are outside the US, request an invoice for additional shipping charges.  I prefer to use Priority, but will gladly use First Class to help save you some money.  Please be aware that most countries do not allow insurance on First Class packages, I will not be held responsible for an item that I cannot insure.  If you are inside the US, I use media mail.  If you prefer Priority please let me know.  ***Due to recent inquiries about International shipping I must add this;  It seems that Ebay is quoting calculated International First Class shipping rates higher than they will actually be.  So, if the calculated shipping seems high please message me.  I charge actual shipping rate plus $3.00 whether you are in the US or not.  The calculated US rates for Media Mail are correct but the International First Class rates seem to be running high.  If you are outside the US, please wait for an invoice.  The $3.00 shipping and handling covers my expense for new boxes, filler pads and supplies.***

PACKAGING= I use a 13 x 13 x 4" 200 lb. rated box.  I place the disc in a plastic sleeve outside of the original sleeve when applicable.  I sandwich the disc between six cardboard filler pads.  I place shipping peanuts or newspaper under, on top of, and around the sides of the cardboard sandwich to fill the space and absorb shock.
