The disc is rubber-banded in between the cardboard supports. We try to get boxes with a 200 pound bursting rate, but when these are not available, we have a minimum standard or 75 pound bursting rate, we have used both with excellent results world wide! SHIPPING TIME We try and ship within four days, but we can not guarantee for certain any shipping time, eBay says four days, but that's not what we say! There are factors such as shipping supplies availability. The most important consideration for shipping 78rpm is taking our time in the warehouse, pulling the discs from the supply shelves, carefully handling and packaging the fragile disc! We are not the Amazon robots and we will not rush packing jobs with fragile 78rpm records! Here “slow” is a must! We take a little more time to make sure the record is not broken during this process. STANDARD RECORD GRADING: (Variables such as groove luster, sound quality, wear and abuse are taken into consideration.) Since most 78rpm records are made of shellac, unlike vinyl, they can look bad but still sound good! P – Poor G – Good plus or minus (a good record is NOT a “Good” record at all!) VG – Very Good VG+ - Very Good Plus E – Excellent Minus E – Excellent E+ Excellent Plus E+/NM- Excellent Plus Near Mint Minus NM - Near Mint Minus NM – Near Mint M – Mint S – Sealed (for LPS) NOTE: As of February 2021, Debbie Martinez will be retiring from overseeing operations and new staff members will he handling the orders. Debbie has been selling 78rpm records, yearbooks and 16mm films since 2004! You may send her your well wishes using the same post office box address.
