An acetate disc (also known as a test acetate, dub plate, lacquer, or transcription disc) is a type of gramophone record, mechanical sound storage medium, mostly used from the 1930s to the late 1960s for mastering recordings and broadcast, altho' now used by Dance DJs. Acetates are typically produced from a master tape recording. By electroplating the acetate master, stampers (special moulds) can be created, which in turn are used to press large quantities of records. Acetates are also used for testing the quality of the tape-to-disc transfer. A typical acetate disc is an aluminum disc, 10 or 12 inches in diameter, that is covered with a thin coating of nitrocellulose lacquer in which the sound groove is cut. Discs of this type can be played on any normal phonograph, and are normally only made in very small numbers. Some acetates are highly prized for their rarity.

Potential Bidders:  A maximum 3 days for communication and 7 days for payment to arrive - If not I will either relist the item, notify Ebay/PayPal or offer to the runner-up. Fast deals get great Feedback from me. Any questions - please ask and thanks for looking.

Please Note: I will now offer any item to the runner-up after the mandatory Ebay 3 days if no contact is made by the winning bidder unless prior notice of any delay is given beforehand. The same applies if no payment is received within the mandatory 7 days so any bidder who has just lost out can still email me to reserve the item as priority second chance.

My Guarantee: If any winning bidder is not satisfied with their purchase I will offer a complete refund [minus the return posting and all Ebay costs!] as long as the item detail has been read and understood. I will not refund if any defect detail is clearly stated on the advert and missed by the buyer. If any overseas collector does not understand anything in my listing, please email and ask me to help. I expect items to be posted back RECORDED DELIVERY (at Buyers expense!) 

I have made a decision to sell ALL ITEMS over £35.00 UK by RECORDED DELIVERY. + items over £100 by SPECIAL (NEXT DAY) DELIVERY & Overseas Buyers MUST be prepared to pay for a INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR  SERVICE on items over £35.00. [ It is only £4.50p and is well worth the extra, to TRACK your purchase and will not lead to any FALSE CLAIMS from BUYER or SELLER. ]

 UNDER EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES ONLY - I am prepared to post 'certain items' by NORMAL AIR MAIL but this is my decision only and will be for regular customers  - Your high bid on this item implies that you agree to TRUST ME (based on my feedback record!) that my grading system is FAIR and I will in fact post your 'unprotected' item and retain PROOF OF POSTING and that if it does not show up, then the POSTAL SERVICES World-Wide are to blame although I will help the buyer with regards any claim. 

In these circumstances I will ask for an email stating that you have CHOSEN NOT TO PAY for RECORDED DELIVERY" and FULLY UNDERSTAND if it is LOST or DAMAGED then the loss is yours. I cannot keep pay refunds to people who say an item has NOT ARRIVED if they are NOT WILLING TO PAY FOR RECORDED DELIVERY.

***  THANKS & GOOD LUCK WITH BIDDING  ***
