Description

!!PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY!!

This is one of a number of records I am selling on behalf of an old friend of mine, who (like me) is thinning his shelves. I have all the records here, and have graded as conservatively as always. Whilst some of these look at bit "scruffy" all those I've play-checked play better than graded. Good luck!

PLEASE NOTE:-Thanks to a change to Ebay regulations, it seems I can no longer sell on Ebay.com. Therefore I now have to list items on Ebay.co.uk., which I didn't want to do, as Ebay.com ensures that any listing gets a world-wide viewing. Just hope everyone can find me!

POSTAGE and SHIPPING Ebay have now stated that there should be precise shipping charges quoted for any item listed, AND have specified what those shipping charges must be. That's fine for individual items, but with records it is impossible to quote accurately until you know how many records a bidder has won. THEREFORE THE FIGURES I HAVE PUT IN FOR SHIPPING ARE THE COSTS FOR SHIPPING THIS ONE ITEM, AND IF YOU WIN MORE THAN ONE ITEM THEN THIS WILL NOT BE THE FINAL SHIPPING COST. I'm sure most bidders will be aware of this, but I thought it only fair to make it clear. As a very general rule, one record shipped to an English address at the very cheapest rate would work out at approx. £4, which DOES NOT include the cost of the box sets I always use. (These cost me £3.50 per set, and you will see how good they are from the feedback I've received.) One disc to the USA works out at $25, again including the cost of the box. Obviously, a parcel with three or four discs works out cheaper per disc. I normally ship overseas at Air Mail, Small Packet rate. (I will ship via Surface Mail if asked, but this usually means you wait up to eight weeks for your parcel.....and, curiously, it's not that much cheaper!) As always, if anyone is concerned about shipping costs please contact me before the listing ends, and I'll do my best to help.

What the above means is that I would be shipping single items at a loss, and therefore I have no alternative but to either add a cost for insurance, or increase the starting price. I do apologise to potential buyers, but please don't blame me-talk to Ebay about it! (Of course I could just pack records in a Pizza box, but I feel I owe it to buyers to pack as safely as possible.)

AND FINALLY...we get to the disc itself........

Two classic -and red-hot- sides by the legendary Jabbo Smith and his Rhythm Aces, and an immaculate copy! Graded at E+, it plays as such on my set-up here. There is a sticker on the "Let's Get Together" side, which shows that this was purchased originally from Messrs Levys of London. Whowever bought this in 1929 had very good taste! Although I do not normally put a reserve on the discs I sell, I have done so in this case. However, the reserve is realistic, and I have no doubt it will be exceeded.

A REALLY SCARCE AND DESIRABLE ITEM - DON'T MISS OUT!

IN VIEW OF THE HIGH COSTS OF SHIPPING THESE DAYS, I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO HOLD DISCS AGAINST A WORTHWHILE PARCEL, PROVIDED PAYMENT IS MADE FOR SUCH DISCS.
