Secondhand Record For Sale





  • Item: 78 RPM record from 1928 on Victor 21707, Kyle's Worried Blues b/w Monkey-Man Blues by Charlie Kyle. This is the 3rd known uncracked example of this rare 78 as far as I know. From what I can piece together, Charlie Kyle traveled by train from Texas to TN with Ida Mae Mack and Bessie Tucker to record blues tracks for Victor. Premier Mississippi blues man Ishmon Bracey was also headed to Memphis on a Greyhound, which wrecked (Bracey wasn't hurt) but Charlie Kyle got on that bus just two stops from Memphis and that's how they met. Bracey remembered Kyle carrying his guitar on his back. The two bluesmen ended up staying in the same hotel on Beale Street, and they practiced together the night before going in to record at the big hall in Memphis. Kyle was a 12 string guitarist with a great style. Like most bluesmen, his material was copied later, notably "Worried Song" from Robert Hunter of Grateful Dead renown. I'm unsure if the Monkey Man side has anything to do with The Rolling Stones song of similar title (?). Record will be carefully/responsibly packed in a box of my own construction. Please see my listings for other desirable titles!


  • Returns: If item is deemed “not as described” due to such circumstances as shipping damage or seller’s incorrect description of the item's condition, it falls under the realm of the eBay Money Back Guarantee. The reason why I don’t have a return policy in addition to the eBay Money Back Guarantee is that return policies cover all other reasons for return (such as the buyer simply changing their mind) but they also require the seller to pay for shipping, which is an expense that I cannot afford, especially in the case of an international transaction.


  • International Shipping: I sympathize with int’l buyers regarding shipping charges and their country’s Customs fees, but because the value must be declared in order to insure the item for that amount, I’m unable to satisfy the expectations of most buyers in certain countries. If you’re an exception, all you need to do is let me know and hopefully we can work together!


  • Condition: Records may not function as intended per surface noise, defective playback due to manufacturing defect or scratches, etc. and any extant sleeves/covers often have damage such as flawed edges and odors which may require repair or treatment, so I’m selling this item as being in “For parts or not working” condition. Most records are in scratched condition. See Goldmine Record Album Price Guide, 5th Edition, page 17: “It’s estimated that no more than 2 to 4 percent of all records remaining from the 1950’s and 1960s are truly Near Mint” (and the next grade down from Near Mint is VG+, where light scratches are present). It amazes me that the world of record collecting doesn’t have an official grading company such as in the comic book field (they have CGC), the coin collecting realm (they have PCGS), etc. Until an official 3rd party industry expert comes along, record grading remains subjective and opinions vary due to parties’ differences in audio equipment, etc.
