I'll take one Melba Gramophone with a Melba soundbox and the brass flower horn.
I'll also take one Melba pedestal if you have one in stock, plus two copies of each operatic G&T record in your catalog (one for playing, the other for archiving.)

Which method of payment do you prefer?

Hahaha!

Great post :)
