   My favorite way to buy old 78's is flea markets. You'll usually find   
   somebody there that might take the whole bunch off you for X amount of   
   dollars. I collect them, but I don't pay any large amount for them.   
   Then again it depends on what artists, or songs are in that bunch.   
   Hope this helps.
