In my early days of collecting, I picked up a 78 from a charity shop and it broke that day. Luckily, it was Such a Night by Johnnie Ray, so not rare.

I wouldn’t let that experience put you off buying on eBay. The reliable dealers will mention their packaging in the product description. I tend to look at their feedback ratings too. If they aren’t a dealer who specialises in 78s, I’ll contact them.

I had a 78 from Discogs which arrived intact in an LP mailer. I complained to the seller, and he said something like “it arrived safely, what more do you want?” So many sellers think they have nothing to learn.
