Guest Awake 502 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 (edited) Seen it all now.... Original45s only my arse.... Ebay Link Edited July 4, 2010 by Awake 502
Kevinkent Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Seen it all now.... Original45s only my arse.... Ebay Link But to be fair - there is a scan, it's described as a carver, and it was put on at 99p start. What more do you want?
Guest Awake 502 Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 But to be fair - there is a scan, it's described as a carver, and it was put on at 99p start. What more do you want? Do you think everyone knows what a "Carver" is ?
Kevinkent Posted July 4, 2010 Posted July 4, 2010 Do you think everyone knows what a "Carver" is ? No, but if anyone is spending 3 figures on a piece of vinyl i think they probably would. The seller also states "all original first issues unless noted" - which it clearly is. If someone doesn't know then there is always the oportunity to ASK before bidding. I don't have a problem with this personally, unlike some of the shyster sales that are intended to deceive with their bootlegs - now they really piss me off!
soul45s Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 A silly price indeed but I have no control of what people choose to pay for an item! Everything starts at 99p I usually only selI original records but have been selling some boots and reissues over the past couple of weeks as well, some of these belonged to a mate of mine who passed away recently, I am selling them as a favor for his wife! Anyway, got lots more good stuff to list, mainly my own originals, maybe I should set up a new account to list them.....'someofthesemaynotbeoriginals' ffs! regards Paul

Its worth £342 to someone.
Ezzie Brown Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 top seller ,and man is paul........ .........what he descibes as being for sale,.......is what it is ................,buyers choice to bid .........might have bid myself if i had seen it, regards ezzie
John Benson Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I suppose to be fair, there were 5 different bidders and 19 bids in total - so surely (at least) most of them must have been aware of what they were actually bidding on? But there again....who knows
grant Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I suppose to be fair, there were 5 different bidders and 19 bids in total - so surely (at least) most of them must have been aware of what they were actually bidding on? But there again....who knows must get a few hundred done i saw it, read description and decided not to bid, so pretty sure the others must have seen clearly that it was a carver. nice result paul. i did bid on 2 of paul's other originals sales, lost one at last minute, great price too (embers - hence i have a want out on here for it ), the other i won

I thought Jeez if these are what he's selling what's he playing ffs! Just got to get myself fit enough to travel and I'll be up there. - Kev.
NEV Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Do you think everyone knows what a "Carver" is ? I thought it was one of these ..but could'nt work out where to put the meat
boba Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I thought it was one of these ..but could'nt work out where to put the meat this is a good point, wouldn't a better name be "carved"?

Guest in town Mikey Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I thought it was one of these ..but could'nt work out where to put the meat Our local butchers assistant got the sack for putting his dick into the meat carver. She got the sack too.
Philb Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Seen it all now.... Original45s only my arse.... Ebay Link Whats the price of a real one of these?
Pete S Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 love it but oo is it really? It is actually The Tiaras I think?
Dazdakin Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 been collecting for 30yrs and honestly never heard of the term carver before in my life!! Have played the link and still have no idea what it means...........explain please somebody:huh:
Simon T Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 It is actually The Tiaras I think? The Tiaras - Foolish Girl / Surprise - Op-Art 1003 Canadian release 1969
Guest martyn Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 been collecting for 30yrs and honestly never heard of the term carver before in my life!! Have played the link and still have no idea what it means...........explain please somebody:huh: Modern day emi disc , give or take
Pete S Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 been collecting for 30yrs and honestly never heard of the term carver before in my life!! Have played the link and still have no idea what it means...........explain please somebody:huh: It's like an acetate/emidisc but actually cut onto vinyl. The first company who became popular doing this service were called Vinyl Carvers, hence the expression "carver"
Dazdakin Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 so why is an emi disc now called a carver instead of an emi disc??? Confused........anyways got one of these on Canadian........how much these days??
Pete S Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 so why is an emi disc now called a carver instead of an emi disc??? Confused........anyways got one of these on Canadian........how much these days?? Dunno, I've never heard an emidisc called a carver - because it's not.
Ady Croasdell Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Wow it sounds a lot earlier than 1969. I see Manships has the flip listed first, it can't be better than that can it?
Ady Croasdell Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Actually if it came out it's mad anyone would pay that money for a boot of it and of course totally illegal for the seller to flog it.
Dave Abbott Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Wow it sounds a lot earlier than 1969. I see Manships has the flip listed first, it can't be better than that can it? Yes it is as good - the other side is the Belitta Woods cover up Ady
Simon T Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Wow it sounds a lot earlier than 1969. I see Manships has the flip listed first, it can't be better than that can it? belita woods - foolish girl -
grant Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 belita woods - foolish girl - nice but prefer 'Surprise'
Ady Croasdell Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Ditto. No way is it 1969, Canada's not that far behind! Could you put a scan of either or both sides up please Daz?
Dave Abbott Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 discog -dunno if its complete THE TIARAS 'Where Does All The Time Go / All I Ever Need Is You '(Barry 3491) 1968 'Foolish Girl / Surprise '(Op-Art 1003) 1969 'Lost Girl / Right On '(New Music 101) 1969
Kevinkent Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 (edited) been collecting for 30yrs and honestly never heard of the term carver before in my life!! Have played the link and still have no idea what it means...........explain please somebody:huh: That's fair enough. But out of curiosity as I leapt to defend the sales post - if you'd been inclined to bid on this would the description as a carver have dettered you, or at least prompted you to ask the seller what he mean't by this? Or would you have bid away regardless? Just curious. - Kev. Edited July 6, 2010 by KevinKent
Bitchdj Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 It was "discovered" by tickhills finest.... andy dyson , current value of this very pretty labelled double sider is £4,000 - £5,000...... only 5 or 6 known copies at the last count..... one of the great finds of the last few years...

Erm dunno really, i only replied to this as i had no idea what a carver was, only played clip in link to see if itwas the same as the one i had.

Paulw Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 If someone had just registered on here and tried to sell a 'carver' for more than 99p he would have been ripped to bits,probably by the same people kiss-arseing and making excuses for bootleg sellers/selling. Give your heads a collective shake.
Bitchdj Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Well, without going into all of andys business ..... my partner, Nick , goes most places with andy , was with him the night he dscovered it and haas been with him when he dealt 2 copies.... so JM must have let someome have a bargain ?? ... does that verify / authenticate anything Ted ???

Give your heads a collective shake. I'll say it again - I've no problem with anyone that lists a sale honestly. These things exist so we might as well face it, they're going to be bought and sold. I just think anger and dismay is better directed at the many sellers who intentionally set out to deceive or catch the unwary - many with numerous sales and on a regular basis, and with Ebay seemingly ignoring the reporting of such sellers by myself and others on here. - Kev.
Ted Massey Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 It was a set sale item @ £2K good buy there Simon there you are you can get 4/5 k for it now:thumbsup:
Bitchdj Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 no it doesnt, wether it will fetch 4/5k is yet to be tested unless you know something we dont It's already been tested... so yes , i do !
Ted Massey Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 (edited) apologies Edited July 7, 2010 by Ted Massey
Guest martyn Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Dunno, I've never heard an emidisc called a carver - because it's not. Same principle though , thats why I said "give or take" . Can't see why the physical difference between a carver & an emi disc matters a hoot in this instance - they serve the same purpose
Guest Awake 502 Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I'll say it again - I've no problem with anyone that lists a sale honestly.

If the buyer knew what a Carver was then no way would they have bid the amount it sold for, intentional or not this item did catch out and deceive the unwary. An ambiguous listing at best, seller could describe it as an illegal bootleg that anyone can buy for 20 quid.... which is what the item is...
