***CAVEAT FOR PURCHASERS OF 78RPM RECORDS FROM ROSALIE'S READING ROOM***

The 78 rpm records offered here have accumulated from older relatives of mine.  I am not familiar with most of the recordings and the information offered has been culled from my research on the internet (and may have factual discrepancies).  For those who are not recording cognoscenti (including myself), be aware of certain details:  (1) These records are very old--always FIFTY to ONE HUNDRED years or more; (2)  As such, the recording quality is never more than acceptable--especially in comparison to Hi-Fi, Stereo, and Digital recordings.  These are always noisy, with clicks, pops, scratches, etc.; (3)  I have not played these records before offering them for sale and have no idea whether they will be suitable to your taste and quality requirements.  They are offered as COLLECTIBLE items. (4)  Hence, NO RETURNS WILL BE ACCEPTED--FOR ANY REASON!

This leads to an explanation of shipping.  I have, in the distant past mailed 78rpm records worldwide, with less than satisfactory results.  Since these records were made of shellac, not "unbreakable" vinyl, they were subject to the handling of, shall we say, "gorillas" between my store and your home or business.  As such, like fine china or glass, a considerable amount of breakage ensued.  Although I tried many time-consuming and expensive methods of packing these highly perishable items, I was frequently stymied in my efforts by other handlers, and so finally gave up offering these EXCEEDINGLY RARE collectibles.  Through numerous telephone calls and negotiations, I have been informed that major shipping companies--UPS, FEDEX, et al.--are prepared to handle these items and guarantee success in delivering them.  The approximate cost to ship one record in the US is $25 (with minor variations concernings zip codes).  That $25 will cover all shipping and handling costs--including insurance and tracking.  I assume multiple purchases will have some minor discount which I will gladly pass on to you.  International shipping will, needless to say, require a specific and higher quote.  I am aware that others will assure me that shipping costs could be cheaper, but I (and my customers) seek GUARANTEED hassle-free delivery and assurances from trusted shipping companies.

THEREFORE----whatever price you choose to negotiate with me, understand that approximately $25 of the purchase price is for the shipper----this way my ads will continue to reflect the BARRY'S BARGAIN BIN policy of offering free shipping on every purchase.

Thank you for taking the time to read this important information---and enjoy shopping for these EXTREMELY RARE and delicate collectible items at BARRY'S BARGAIN BIN.

NOT TO BE MISSED!!

A FABULOUS COLLECTIBLE!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

This is the ROULETTE R-25285 LP. The cover shows no signs of wear--still in shrink wrap. The record shows no scratches under normal light. Check my feedback to see that I sell exactly as I describe.  So bid now to own this magnificent, impossible-to-find JEWISH MUSIC / FOLK SONGS / RECORD COLLECTIBLE.
 

**A NOTE TO PROSPECTIVE RECORD BUYERS** Despite my attempt to keep my ads informative, yet as simple and uncomplicated as possible, I have realized that record purchasers are another “breed” entirely. As a result, I am deluged with questions both bizarre, and occasionally frivolous. I have even received a “warning” prior to shipment to a winning bidder telling me exactly what he expected----or else!  I therefore find it necessary to include this explanation of what to expect from me should you choose to buy this or any of my other listed records. To begin, all of these records come from my personal collection. I bought most of them in the 1960’s in new condition—although some came from close-out bins. Almost every one has been played only once or twice (it is a huge collection—how many times could I listen to them?!) Being a collector, I also took extremely good care of them. On the other hand, I was, and am, completely UNKNOWLEDGEABLE about details that “real” collectors have. To begin with, the term “excellent” describes the fact that I looked at the record under a normal lamp light and did not see obvious flaws. If I notice a scratch, I will mention it. I also will say a cover is “perfect” unless I see obvious tears or major stains. I say “original” because most were purchased 50-odd years ago and I want to distinguish them from newer releases---on the other hand, I have no knowledge of dates of pressings. And now, to the most important part---I have noticed other record sellers posting huge disclaimers discussing the scurrilous practices of some buyers, such as “switching” records that they purchase for others of the same title that they already own that are in considerably worse condition. Or, purchasing a record, and trying to negotiate a lower price after receipt of the merchandise with a threat of negative feedback. I am also sure that there are less-than-honest sellers out there. My position is simply this---my positive feedback speaks for itself----I try to sell exactly what I describe---within the parameters of my own knowledge. If my ad does not include information you require, please ask before you buy and I will try to answer promptly and to the best of my ability. If I cannot—don’t buy! Also, always understand that you are purchasing a used record---records are known to have clicks, pops, distortions, even occasional slight warping. They had these flaws when I purchased them. If it did not affect their play, I was not concerned. I was listening to the music. If you are expecting perfect sound----buy the CD!  I even stupidly accepted return of a record that I was told was not an original, only to re-sell it to a collector who said it certainly was an original. I presume the original buyer recorded it, since it was not available on CD. Those days are over for me. If you buy it, you own it. Everything I mail is sent wrapped in bubble pack and special (expensive) record mailers. I aim to please---as my feedback shows---but if you want to see or hear your record before buying, please go to a record store---not ebay. I apologize for having to write this----but I thank you for reading it.
