Welcome to Kings of House Music - We are selling our collection of music and books. To get listings online quicker, we have added a generic photo on many LPs but mostly 78's. We are not new to eBay - this site was created to handle mostly music related items. We will consistently list 20 new items to 50 a week. Visually graded for the shellacs and vinyl and played if looks less that Good. We ship professionally and take returns. If there is a generic photo and you would like a photo don't hesitate to ask. Thank you for stopping by!
We have several hundred lots and single 78 RPM and vinyl going up for auction - what you see in description is what is in the auction. Be sure to ask questions! If you win multiple lots - please wait for invoice so I can give you accurate sipping costs.
Thank you for looking and happy bidding!
I have a tendency to grade under - so this means - I am more apt to say a Very Good (VG) record is Good (G) before I will over-grade. I do not want issues with eBay regarding records that you feel were not graded correctly. I return all items but shipping back is paid by the buyer. Same record must come back in same condition it left. I have been selling on eBay for a long time and this site is dedicated mainly to move large collection of vinyl and media.
Grades for 78 RPM
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
EXCELLENT: "EX" The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Cover and packaging might have slight wear and creasing. .
VERY GOOD: "VG" The record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
GOOD: Record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. PLEASE NOTE: A seller using the record collector grading system can grade a record as "Good" and the buyer, thinking "good means good" will not realize that, technically, good= not good. On the other hand, an inexperienced seller may look at a nice shiny, unmarked 78, think "that looks good" and grade it as "good" when it should be described as EX+.
FAIR: Just playable. But rare or may have interest to buyer
POOR: Will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc....would only be sold if rare.
Grades for Vinyl AlbumsM : new, un-played, perfect, usually sealed.
NM: like new but possibly carefully played a limited amount of times. Should play near perfect with almost no noise or imperfections. May show very faint imperfections from paper scuffs or tiny needle marks.
EX : as above with a few light needle marks, or a few light surface scuffs, and/or lightly audible marks. A very nice used record.
VG+: between VG and EX, no feelable scratches and will definitely play through with no skips or jumps.
VG : still showing gloss but lots of small scratches and scuffs or some light groove wear. A used/played record that should still play through without skips, but will have light surface noise throughout, pops, ticks, and maybe some light distortion/sibilance. I do not consider VG to be a complete junk grade.
VG- to G : any record in less than VG condition that I feel is still worth offering due to it?s rarity.
Grades for Album Covers Only - Not 78 sleeves
M : perfect. no wear, square flat corners, solid seams, spine etc., Usually sealed
NM : overall appearance of front and back near perfect but may have a very small problem such as a small corner ding/couple tiny spine chips, but nothing noticeable without close inspection.
EX : as above, nice "un-handled" feel, but may have more spine wear, a bent or dinged corner or two, very light ring wear, but rarely any splits or tears.
VG+: Between VG and EX (usually closer to an EX grade), NO major seem splits over a an inch or two, No visible water damage. Edge chipping and smaller splits possible, ring wear, and small name or writing possible but should be noted.
VG: still has a nice overall appearance, but may have the following defects: seam splits, spine splits, small tears, ring wear, writing, stains, water damage, stickers etc. in various degrees.
VG- to G : getting ugly, but for some reason still worth offering
