Important information for U.S. Bidders! 


We are based in the UK, so the $4 US Domestic shipping shown does not apply, so do not pay Ebay’s automatic invoice - I will invoice you within 24 hours of closing. Shipping by Tracked and Signed For Air Mail with $75 Insurance to the USA is $26.50 for a single record but multiple wins will be combined to save money. The insured sum can be increased at an extra cost - please ask for a quote. UK/European bidders can pay me in Pounds Sterling as usual.


This is a special ‘one off’ listing on US eBay to show what you’re missing if you don’t check my regular listings on eBay.co.uk and  my thrice-yearly auctions in Vintage Jazz Mart magazine and the Mark Berresford Rare Records website. We list on eBay at least twice a month with rare Jazz, Blues, European Hot Dance, Personality, Original Theatre Cast, Ethnic 78s, photos, cylinders and much more! Our acquisition of an old-established collection means there’s many new-to-market items to list.


IMPORTANT -  PLEASE NOTE: shipping prices DO NOT include insurance or tracking - please request a quote if required. Please note that we are not liable for any loss or damage in transit unless insurance to the full declared value of the items is taken - this adds about $9 to the shipping total. Please bear this in mind before paying for your item. 


Don't miss my latest website auction of carefully graded Jazz and Blues 78s, which includes many ultra-rarities that most collectors only dream about! There are 290+ items of Jazz, Blues and Hot Dance 78s and it closes 25th March 2018. Check it out at our jazzhound.net website - you know where to put the w's! We also have 1000s of top quality 78s, 45s and LPs in stock - the About Me link (next to Feedback Rating) contains much useful information - it's well worth checking out!


GRADING. The international standard VJM Record Grading Code is used for all 78s and LPs - for the definitive guide to grading 78s and LPs and how to use the VJM grading system, visit the VJM website. The condition of all our items is Guaranteed and all Photographs and Paper material are original prints, not modern reproductions unless clearly stated.We ship Worldwide - Postage and Packaging charged at cost. 


PACKING. We professionally pack in custom-made heavy duty boxes - not a pizza box or one picked out of a supermarket trashpile - read our Feedback about our packing! Multiple items are always combined, so the more you buy the cheaper the unit cost for shipping! We live in a remote rural community and only visit the Post Office once or twice a week, so parcels may take slightly longer to arrive.


We have been selling Records, Cylinders, Gramophones, Books, and other fragile items by post for over 40 years, with thousands of satisfied customers worldwide - see our Feedback and read what other customers say about our grading, packing and prompt shipping.



Payments to be made within 7 days of auction closing. I am happy to hold items for a larger parcel if they are paid for.  _gsrx_vers_827 (GS 7.0.13 (827))
