FROM GERMANY
Starting today is a fine auction with some selected rare Ethnic 78s from my personal collection.
This month I will be preparing a large list of exceedingly rare 78s including many rare Vocal & Instrumental European 78s from about 1900 to 1955. If you are interested please let me know via Ebay, so I can inform you when work is done. For packaging: I am an experienced collector and I know about the difficulties of properly packing and shipping 78s. You can be sure: NO PIZZA BOXES - NO BUBBLE ENVELOPES BUT ONLY STRONG BOXES and enough stuffing material will be used to pack your records.

RETURN and other POLICY:
I am a serious collector myself and I always value correct grading.  If not completely satisfied I accept returns, but please understand that I cannot accept any charges for retransportation. All records here come from my personal collection which has grown up over the decades to a size so that it is necessary to thin it out. Please note that I am not a professional dealer, who has to make a living out of selling records. I merely use Ebay to buy other records here, mostly 78s. I am a collector of 78s classical vocal and instrumental recordings. If you have anything to offer in this field, please do not hesitate to contact me via the contact function. I have swapping contacts all over the world.
