Postage quoted applies to US customers. Shipping to US is $5.00 by USPS Media Mail. This price is for up to 3 records. ------------------------------------------------------------ We do ship to Canada and the world. For non-US customers, shipping costs will vary depending on distance, country and service level. We will invoice you once these things have been decided by you. ------------------------------------------------------------ We ship using 12" x 12" x 3" boxes, sandwich the record(s) between at least 4 corrugated cardboard squares, tape the sandwich firmly, and surround it with Styrofoam packing peanuts. 12-inch 78's and 10 and 12-inch sets come in proportionately larger-sized boxes, using the same materials, with slight procedure changes. ------------------------------------------------------------ Non-US customers can determine the approximate shipping cost by using the following numbers and Googling "Canada Post Find a Rate". Weight and measurements for any single 78 rpm record: Packaging weight: 1.7 lbs. approximately (760g approximately.) Packaging dimensions: 12 in. X 12 in. X 3 in. Add 220g for every additional 78. ------------------------------------------------------------ THANK YOU FOR LOOKING! SMOKE FREE. ------------------------------------------------------------ If records were cleaned for assessment it was done with a clean, soft, lint free rag that was lightly moistened, if it was necessary, with distilled water. We strive to accurately describe the items, wrap them diligently, ship them expediently, and maintain communication. We ship to the address that was verified by Paypal. Some countries impose duties and taxes on incoming items. These will be the buyer's responsibility. We combine shipping. We are here to answer any concerns you might have. Your satisfaction is our priority. ------------------------------------------------------------ Here is our LP/cassette/8 track site with over 1140 positive reviews https://www.ebay.com/usr/vinyhilist ------------------------------------------------------------ I follow the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:
N. As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E. Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. V+. 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 V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. 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. G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches. G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. G-. Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive. F. Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable. P. Unplayable.
