Music and records are our passion, especially 78s, but we have reached an age where we are beginning to downsize. Over the years we have acquired just too many and can't possibly play them all so trying to find good homes for a lot of them as my husband is yelling for me to free up some space for his stuff. They are all in wonderful condition for their age and have been well cared for. It is nice to see that people are beginning to care about preserving their history. Some of ours are 100 years old and that's a lot of history. Cds are nice but you just can't beat listening to music in its original form. Please also note that we are and have always been a pet and smoke free environment. And I will always combine multiple purchases to save you some money on shipping. (NOTE: ALL my records and especially the 78s are very carefully packed to insure safe shipping.) With me your Ebay experience is personal!
