$

165

Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Ebay applies tax. Handling of $1 pays some of cost of new box and 3" of bubble wrap that is needed for 78s.

DISK: From a collector's vault, the stylings of the one and only Patsy Kline. Shiny and beautiful for a record this old. If it was a 45, I would suspect it as a copy. However, this one is shellac and does have a stamped runout number, W102377T3A. Discogs only lists a Canadian copy, which seems odd, as you would think it would be released here first. This is a US record. Sounds very good on both sides with no significant noise. Very clean looking. Some tiny bumps and minute scratches under magnification, so must have been played a few times before me.

My Qualifications: My representation of records is based on my reasonable, careful but amateur examination without magnification or expert knowledge. I tell what I have found by my research.  So be forewarned that the record may not be exactly what I think it is or absolutely perfect in every way under expert magnified visual groove inspection or expert audiophile listening scrutiny on a high-buck amp and turntable.  I am just an intelligent and cautious guy reasoning out the clues and liquidating records as honestly as I can.  A veteran buyer/dealer on Ebay advised me its better to go a little low on grading. I'm sure he is right. Please understand, unless I say otherwise, that the records I am selling were not collected by me so I do not know their history. I am no kind of expert in music or records. I research each item on Discogs and, for 45s, Fosman's Dead Wax book, 45cat, and other sites for all the information I put in the post. If I have information from Discogs, Fosman or another seller's post that a record is a reissue, I indicate that. I listen to all 45rpm and 78rpm records and parts of any 33rpm that looks potentially damaged. I use an Ion turntable connected to my computer for 33 and 45. I judge them according to Discogs standards and give the reasons for my rating so buyers can second guess me. I listen to 78s on a 3 speed suitcase player with external speakers. I rate them on on sound alone. My quality ratings are not certified in any way. If the difference between an original edition and a reissue is indicated by a tiny detail I do not discover on Discogs, Fosman, etc. or by another seller, I may not know that.  In any case, any record collector or dealer will tell you that published comments about record authentication are sometimes wrong, even in reference books.  I sell in the belief that collectors of vintage records are more knowledgeable than me about what they collect and know what they are looking at. I am glad to answer any questions that could determine the authenticity or grade of a version. Because collectors may know the true value of a record, while I do not. I start at a very reasonable price and let bidders set the true value, which is often much higher than I thought or much lower.  You can notice that I do not hype records suggesting they are worth a high bid.  That is up to bidders. If an item gets no bids after a while it will relist a few times with a decreasing starting bid. After a few cycles, it isn't worth my effort to pack and ship it so I discard it to my bulk sell boxes even though I originally thought it was worth something.
