First time I've ever heard of someone moving on a JIMMY BURNS due to a lack of space. I mean you'd find space in your fridge or something like that wouldn't you?

my friend found a copy recently, I actually had never really listened to it before, I thought it was terrible (please don't flame me, just my opinion, I'm sure many people hate my taste too). But the other side was actually sort of nice midtempo. Not amazing but nice.

I'm running out of space at home, so if anybody can take a couple of middles (plastic ones, as new) off my hands i'll finally be able to have space to move all the new furniture in - open to offers.

Search for "making room" in the search box, you'll find plenty of people's sales on here where people claim to be selling to "make room", possibly in their "box".

I noticed that the first one up for sale the seller gave the location as Hazel Grove so Manchester is just up the road. There are NS fans in HG but it's not that big a place. Think Steve Foran is from up that way so he may have some idea.

Keep meaning to ask my mum when I visit if she's heard anything on the grapevine. Yes it sounds daft but her cobbler is into NS as is a near neighbour. she's told them that "our Rodney likes records and went to Wigan"

It isn't my mum though so we have at least narrowed the field.

This Jimmy Burns finished on ebay this afternoon, Mick Smith rang me and said what did I think about the fact that he was the 3rd highest bidder but within an hour he had been offered a second chance buy at £1200? I said if you're gonna buy it, go and deliver the money by hand and pick it up. Dodgy.

Alrady asked him Pete if i could pick up and pay cash earlier before it ended but he declined PP only and reg post, needless to say I didn't bid.

Tell Mick to give it a wide birth

with forums like this and the fact that so many people on the soul scene know each other and talk to each other its hard to believe somebody thinks they can get away with a scam like this.

Update on this one for everyone.

This was 'won' by a pal of mine who is not on SS.

When he paid by paypal, paypal added a box stating 'please confirm receipt of goods' - He'd never seen this before ( I haven't either, has anyone on here?)

anyway the seller then emailed something about paypal not passing the money to him for 21 days and therefore he refunded the money ( as obviously we wasn't going to get it without the record arriving!)

Next thing he tries is " I'll post to you and let you know the tracking number, can you pay me direct into my bank account (details given) when I confirm posting?" Obviously he did not pay.

The parcel arrives, and yes you've guessed it, NO RECORD but around 10 sheets of folded A4. Fortunately my pal asked the postman to witness him opening the parcel and confirm that there was nothing inside.

Latest - 'seller' contacts to say he is claiming from the post office and can he have the parcel/packaging back. Unknown to him, my pal has already contacted the PO with the tracking number etc and warned them about a possible fraudulent claim for a 'missing' 45. Therefore to date, 'seller' is out of pocket for special delivery and is likely to find himself in trouble if he makes a fictious claim.

Seller is;-

James Braithwaite

372 Lathbury Road - think this is the Crumpsall area

Manchester

M40 8NS

anyone know of him!

Good to be of service to all on SS
