Re: [Phono-L] You gotta love this... "Museum Quality Black Patti Record"
glen i agree with you i have bought two rare records from him and totally satisfied i did make an offer that was a lot less than his ebay price but still a fair price considering the rarity of the two i did buy i have no complaints but do agree his records for the most part are not museum quality but like anything on ebay you do it with cavet emptor zono In a message dated 5/18/2011 11:42:26 A.M.

Re: [Phono-L] You gotta love this... "Museum Quality Black Patti Record"
He describes the record as " I CAN GURANTEE THERE MUSEUM QUALITY AS BEING THE RAREST AND NOT SOLD "ALL MESSED UP" . There is no grading either. So to protect himself this record is museum quality only in the sense of being rare not necessarily museum quality as being a grade "E+" record. What he means by not sold as all messed up could mean a lot of things. -Original Message- From: Zonophone2006 To: phono-l Sent: Tue, May 17, 2011 5:34 am Subject: Re: [Phono-L] You gotta love this...
