MusicStack has partnered with a vinyl to CD conversion service who will convert the 78 to recordable CD for you. It will sound great with no annoying clicks, pops or background noise. All recordable CDs come in a standard jewel case with artwork printed on glossy paper.
How does this service work?
The seller will ship the 78 to the digital conversion center in Arizona, USA where it will be format shifted onto a recordable CD directly from the 78 only for your ears. The 78 and the recordable CD will then be mailed to you. The digital conversion center will not retain any copies of the item.
What does it cost?
Price of the 78 + 0 conversion to recordable CD + cost of shipping of the 78 to Arizona + cost of shipping of the 78 from Arizona to your location paid in advance.

Grading is very subjectiv and depends sellers experiences and methods. Before to buy or not to buy don't miss details in items descritions. I spend a long time cleaning, grading and reporting anything i see or hear After a professional cleaning I look at everything about a record : its labels, its edges, Its playing surface, run-in and dead wax ...under a strong light. Then based on my overall impression i play it (most from start to end, a few at random only) i give it a grade based on "Goldmine Standard" detailing the following criteria: Overall grade or ' Vinyl, Label, and Sound ' or ' RECORD/COVER ' if any.
PICTURE SLEEVE ONLY WHEN IT'S CLEARLY MENTIONED (PS)
