I am having three consecutive weeks of auctions.
I am happy to hold your items and bill you at the end of the auction cycle (April 10).
Pls send me a note if you would like me to hold records
Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
If you win multiple items, pls send me an INVOICE REQUEST to calculate the correct postage. Ebay check out will not give you the multiple item discount!
Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.
Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless another service is requested. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.
I charge actual postage plus a small fee for packing materials
As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.
If you are in the San Francisco area, I encourage pick-up in person.
US Domestic Shipping:
Here is a rough guideline for US Media Mail Shipping:
Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. Up to about 5 records, I will ship Edison Discs for the same rates. Above that and for international shipments, it will be actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-2$)
1 record: 4$
2 records: 5$
5 records: 6$
10 records: 8$
International Buyers:
I am very happy to ship records worldwide.
Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. For Edison Discs in international shipments, it will charge for the actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-2$) - for small quantities, it will not be much different from the charge for regular 78s.
Pls contact me for a shipping estimate, or send me an invoice request after close of auction.
Be aware that US Postal Rates can be high. Here are some examples.
Your best bet is the Large Priority box, everything that fits into a 12"x12"x5 1/2" box up to 20 pounds ships for 60$ (35$ Canada) worldwide.
However, I can get competitive rates from FedEx and the US Postal service for any kind of parcel weight
Germany (is pretty much the same for most countries, incl Japan and Western Europe)
1 record = 2 lbs 20$
4 lbs = 35$
20 lbs in 12x12" box 60$
Canada
1 record = 2 lbs 10$
4 lbs = 18$
20 lbs in 12x12" box ((12" albums won't fit)= 35$
I may be able to get some slightly better FedEx rates.
Pls email with your address for an estimate.
To estimate your shipment, pls go to

My zip code is 94107.
