Eterna Trading is a classical record specialist, and every record it sells is a European import. The catalogue is filed by musical form rather than by artist, orchestral, symphony, concerto, chamber, opera, vocal, religious, baroque and early music, and cut again by the things classical collectors actually chase: audiophile pressings, mono and stereo audiophile, Charlin recordings, test pressings and samples, box sets, rarities and a bargain end under 1000 yen. There is a Monday Market, a stock-number index running to well past 1400, and cleaning fluid and kits on the side. The shop's blog gets deep into pressing history, from Philips researching PVC in the late 1940s to how thin records got in the 1970s.
