Bigsoulman Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 thanks lenny just suspicious because 1) would have thought philadelphia had been fully magnetics-d-out by now and 2) also this dude hasn't returned my email thingy from ebay if he's telling the truth re the bell sound stamp we're halfway there but isn't there something else on a proper one too? also the boots of this are virtually identical lookalikeys aren't they? yours confused of warwickshire (not that i'll be bidding anyway you understand ) The original has a heavy moulded over label and the boot has a bevelled edge, the matrix number on the run out should be 101tm-1931, I copied the picture in my file then zoomed in, looks ok but can't see matrix number , still better to be sure Lenny
MarkWhiteley Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 seen both boot and orig and i think only way to tell is by the blindingly shiny 'new' vinyl and bevelled edge of the boot. best to buy a demo to be on the safe side

I was in New york Feb and in a shop reccommended to me. His 45 racks were empty saying he just got rid of 8000 records. He had another room full but would not let me in even when flashing $600 at him- He said he hadnt decided what to do with them yet! 2 months later a guy from france walks into the same shop and gets a silouhettes-not me baby for $1 So it doesnt surprise me if its Philadelphia

SteveM Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 seen both boot and orig and i think only way to tell is by the blindingly shiny 'new' vinyl and bevelled edge of the boot. best to buy a demo to be on the safe side Are you still selling me the Empires ?

Gene-r Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 The one on Ebay strikes me as a definite original for two reasons: 1. There isn't a noticeable bevelled edge. 2. Most importantly, on the bootleg, the typeface for the title "When I'm With My Baby" is different to the one for "Count The Days". It is a more bolder, modern typeface. Looking at the pics on Ebay here, the typefaces for both titles appear to be the same; nothing like the boot. Hope this helps. Gene
Ernie Andrews Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Just think about it- Most people know that most of the magnetis records are worth alot of cash. So much so that they spend $200 getting a boxful pressed up and even get a bell sound stamp put in in the process because we have the technology today to do so. ! The only way to know if its gen or not is to test the age of the plastic! It is severely worrying and if you read one of my previous comments on Frederick hymes you really have to wonder if it is worth spending anything over $100.00 for a record
SteveM Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 he seems to buy mainly six 6 strappy white sandals (original manolo blahnik only of course) Have you seen the black boned corset ?

Have you seen the black boned corset ? just got a very sickening mental image thanks.
SteveM Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 or you could be putting people off bidding by sowing seeds of doubt..... Thats not like you Mr D
Ernie Andrews Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 Sowing seeds of doubt! We need abit more doubting what comes from our American friends these days! If you can tell whether something was written on paper yesterday or 30 years ago then the same can be done for vinyl. I should invent a quick test laser and make myself millions!
Gasher Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 (edited) Or send it to your mate who has a vinyl testing laboritory and certificate to guarantee your purchase is at least 30 year old vinyl on a 25 year old release. "I SMELL SHITE" haha you fucking twanger Eccelscake ..you,ll be the death of me I,ll die laughing love you to bits.. the gasher at least Edited September 19, 2005 by The Gasher

If you can tell whether something was written on paper yesterday or 30 years ago then the same can be done for vinyl. I should invent a quick test laser and make myself millions! i firmly believe that modern technology + modern prices + easy spread of information = means, motive and opportunity i said this on soultalk a year or two ago and was denounced as a dangerous lunatic but if soussain could do it successfully in the 70s why couldn't it be done now, and better too take the oxford nights - no distinguishing characteristics really, piss-easy label to boot...if those crazy brits will throw $1000 a piece at you why not knock a few out amazing to me that proper organised crime isn't looking at it, though i concede the volumes involved probably aren't great enough but as part of a generalised bootlegging operation, involving rare beatles, punk, doo wop and god knows what else, why not? anyway, that should have successfully put you lot off bidding so i'm off to get meself a magnetics for $300 Have you seen the black boned corset ? no quick, where, i need one for my missus

Gasher Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 (edited) Im "breaking down the walls of heartache" as I laugh profusely at your blatant bull excrement. check me..I cant smile wide enough this was the smile I pulled when you told me that story of frivilous drivel. its stuck for good now next you,ll tell me you also had it DNA tested as there was a jizzy wank stain on the label and the guy said the spunk was defo from the 60,s.. as it was found to have traces of acid and a hair folicle from Freddy Hymes III ,s scrotum.SO IT MUST BE REAL...hahahahahahahaha XXXXXXXX the gasher Edited September 19, 2005 by The Gasher
Guest Dan Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 plot thickens. in september, items he was selling bore the following line, with a nice and vaguely amusing typographical error: Soul 45 - Pendulum Swingers - Never Should Have Loved You Baby / Never Happened Before - Pendulum Records - Conditon: A side is close to VG+, b-side is VG with a few scuffs that don't effect play. Check out web-shite for similar items:www.funkadelphiarecords.com. Ask for updated email list of set-sale 45's. if you go to that site it's full of recent reissues: https://www.funkadelphiarecords.com/45s.html just so not being unfair to this guy, does anyone know who he is? someone must have bought off him??
Dave Fleming Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 I`ve also mailed him 3 times with no reply , here`s a scan of an Orig that sold on Ebay last year or so, the writing on the Orig is a lot crisper than the boot,but i must say this for this one the shield looks in the same place as the Orig,the boots i`ve seen have all the shield showing with none missing,but hey don`t take my word for it, what do i know Dave f..............
Dysonsoul Posted September 21, 2005 Posted September 21, 2005 the guy selling the sable 45 is 100% i've been dealing with him for years ,he has one of if not the best collections of philly 45's in the world and has brought us countless unissued philly gems over the years .he had records like this when i was still at infant school !!!
Guest enchantedrythm Posted September 22, 2005 Posted September 22, 2005 the guy selling the sable 45 is 100% i've been dealing with him for years ,he has one of if not the best collections of philly 45's in the world and has brought us countless unissued philly gems over the years .he had records like this when i was still at infant school !!! agreed, a1 seller the type face is def slight difference side by side, slight line smudge (consistant though) on all outside lines. quoting someone above re bell sound stamps: who can do perfect replica's using todays technology???? do any real close copies exist if so what on?????? surely today's pressing techniques cant recreate these stamps because of the very nature of todays technology rendering the way they stand on the finished vinyl, the s has a heavy curl to the top, u and d all have slighty heavier curls to the bottom also the attemps at recreation are very, very different, the ones ive seen anyway not as bad as mel brits ztsc but to the even slightly informed chaulk and cheese im not bidding, but depending on outcomes there might be another advertised sooner than you might think! anyone out there got bunny foote watson donkey and the goat pt 1 & 2 on big hawk 18101, get in touch if yes, info needed, thanks BAN THE SABLE TRADE
