* These audio clips were captured by me simply recording a video on my cell phone as I tested the records on my turntable, so sound quality is not a true representation of what the record sounds like with proper audio set-up (it sounds GREAT, BTW). Please excuse my shaky camera hand.

Packing / Shipping:Shellac records are as delicate as glass. As such, the 10" record will be mailed with extreme care taken. The record is first placed in a white generic sleeve; it is then placed between two cardboard stiffeners, cut to size, which are taped on either side. The sandwiched record is then bubble wrapped, and placed in a 12" x 12" x 6" box, surrounded by crumpled newspaper to ensure it arrives in one piece.
Shipping / Handling: $8 Media Mail or $14 Priority Mail
VJM Grading System:
Shellac 78 rpm records are surface / play-graded graded using the VJM system w / 3.0 mil Audio-Technica stylus & cartridge especially made for playing 78's
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 luster 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 graying 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.
