I USE THE VJM RECORD GRADING SYSTEM FOR ALL 78'S
C10 = N : Store Stock New
As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). C9 : N-
Nearly New, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. C8 = E+
Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of sleeves. C7 = E : Excellent
Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
C6 = E-
Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few light scratches.
C5 = V+
V+ is 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.

C4 = V : Very Good
Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. C3 = V-
Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.
C2 = G+
Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
C1 = G : Good
Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is stillhigher than surface noise.
G- ; F ; and P
The VJM system has these designations for records in extremely poor condition. We do not place these on the 10-point scale because records in this condition have little or no value. In cases where the record is extremely rare, it would be worth the C1 price.
