1950 SAGOMES 78 rpm Casablanca Steel Orch Calypso Record
This is a rare 78 rpm record released on the “Sagomes” label, which was based in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The recording, however, was pressed and made in England. It’s believed that this pressing dates to 1950. It is Sagomes catalog number SG 101 and it features the Casablanca Steel Orchestra performing “In Ah Calabash” on one side and “Oh Rosie” on the other. The matrix number is “D SG 101 23A”. I don’t have a 78 rpm player, so I find it difficult to grade 78s, but there are some light scratches on either side. The record has good gloss and my understanding is that 78 players are more forgiving of light scratches than LPs are. In any case, any minor damage should be forgivable given the rarity of this record….Please click on any photo in order to enlarge……no reserve….and please be sure to view my other auctions for more interesting vintage and antique items, all collected from a number of good quality local estates…. .... ….Please click on any photo in order to enlarge……no reserve….and please be sure to view my other auctions for more interesting vintage and antique items, all collected from a number of good quality local estates…..

About Us:

  We sell primarily estate found items, mostly antiques, collectibles and unique or interesting items, always by the auction method.   

  When we can, we endeavor to start our items without reserve, but in the case of a more valuable item, we set reserves considerably below market price in order to allow bidders to compete at a price range superior to the reserve set value.  So please do not be intimidated by reserves, simply bid at a level that you are comfortable with, and hopefully, you will get a bargain.

  We describe thoroughly and have had perfect positive feedback for all of our time on eBay.  So, please bid with confidence and read further in order to understand our shipping methodology.

  Thank you!

 







IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ:

PLEASE NOTE: BUYER PAYS SHIPPING - PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I CONTACT YOU AFTER THE AUCTION to avoid error. The reason for this is that package sizes and weights are estimates only as we cannot fully package items before they are sold. Please e-mail us for a shipping quote or wait until after the auction for a precise shipping cost. Our auctions end on Sunday evening, so I will be in touch with the correct invoice by Monday afternoon at the latest, after we have had the chance to carefully package your item.

I am now shipping to my US clients through USPS services. I am located in Canada but I now have a carrier service to bring my parcels directly across the border on Thursdays to be shipped out of the USPS postal outlet in Champlain, N.Y. In addition to the actual shipping cost, I do charge a $3.00 handling fee to cover the cost of this special US service. Please note that even with the handling fee that it is less expensive and is a quicker service than using Canada Post. If you wish your item to be shipped by USPS in the same week, I would require your paypal payment by Wednesday at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time.

PLEASE NOTE: For items which sell over $200.00, I must ship to my U.S. clients using Canada Post, this is due to customs regulations.

To my Canadian clients, I use Canada Post for shipping, as I am based in Canada - legally, I am not permitted to ship to you through the US, so do not rely on the US shipping calculator for costs.

To my International clients I can ship by either Canada Post or by USPS (in order to use USPS for intl. clients - the items must sell for under $200.00).

Please feel free to write with any inquiries in regards to cost of shipping to you.

I would request any client to get in touch with me upon winning an item, who is NOT able to pay by Tuesday at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, so I can get an idea of when to expect your payment.

My regular shipping day is Thursday.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: CANADIAN RESIDENTS PAY GST/HST and QUEBEC RESIDENTS PAY BOTH THE GST AND PST TAX.

Please do not ask us to falsify customs documentation.
"Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up - do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior."  


Payment
