No...I'm NOT saying they aren't expensive enough! I have no intention of
selling my 78's (except for duplicates)...so "how much they are worth" is
TOTALLY irrelevant to me! I was just commenting on the fact that
the price of 78's...both new and used...has been around $1 since the
early forties...which I find interesting...?!

However, there was a party on "eWotsit" who was trying to sell 78's
(of no particular rarity or value?!) for $55 each...?! I don't imagine he
had a lot of takers?!
