please see labels.

My grading scale is not complicated.  Mint (M, M-) means like new with only the slightest of scuffing.  Excellent (E, E+, E-) means minor scuffs, scrapes, label wear, light scratches that do not affect the play.  Good (G, G+, G-) means scuffing, scraping, scratches, acceptable playing with noticible noise.  I try not to sell records that are warped or that skip unless noted.  These are records I have picked up while expanding my own record collection.  

I pack very carefully with cardboard reinforcement, bubble wrap and sturdy boxes.  I combine shipping on multiple purchases where possible.  Please use shipping calculator to determine shipping charges to your location.

This auction DOES NOT accept international bidding.  PLEASE NOTE: The shipping calculator tends to give excessive shipping charges for International First Class Mail.  I charge shipping on actual weight, postage is printed clearly on the label and I refund any excess payment if over $1.00 US for international buyers.  A single 78 record shipped International First Class mail to Europe is around $18.00 US, but can very slightly Four 78 records to Europe is around $28.00 US and can also vary.
