Secondhand Record For Sale





  • Item: 45 RPM 7" inch record, "My Isabella" b/w "A Brand New Deal", Jubilee 45-5206 by Danny Cobb from 1955. Cobb had been around for years and the press liked to call him a blues singer / shouter, but in 1952 he played in what's regarded as the first rock 'n roll concert -- the Moondog Coronation Ball in Cleveland. The more I list these items on eBay (see my other listings), the more I get sick of the labels put on things. Was it rock, blues, country (?) -- the important aspect of these choice early recordings is that they broke away from the norm at the time and set the pace for everything from our homegrown Elvis and friends to the British Invasion blues inspired greats like Clapton. Record will be carefully/responsibly packed. Please see my listings for other desirable titles!


  • Returns: If an 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 the 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.
