Melvin Davis 'wedding Bells' On Keke, Nm Labeat, Tri-Sound And More! Clean Detroit - (For Once :-)

[Mr Blue]

Hello to all from Motown USA, and thank you for looking at my list!

I am in a different time zone, so please be patient for a reply.

Also, in the name of getting more things listed for sale, I'm going to list my prices in U.S. Dollars

from now on. This way, I can offer more records, faster. I am buying them at a much faster

rate than I can process and sell them. Lots of stuff still coming to the surface for me here in

Detroit; I recommend visiting in person!

I am willing to give discounts for multiple 45 orders as well, so feel free to make me an offer!

MARKDOWN TIME!!

For all of my records that have been sitting on this list; change the £ sign to $ and that is the amount

I would be glad to take for each.

Newest additions to my posts are always toward the top.

Terms and a bunch of other stuff can be found if you scroll on down.

I also have lots of records for sale on Discogs.com, here, including new soul 45's arriving 6 days a week:

Thanks again.

All the best,

Brad

Feel free to make me an offer on anything that is still sitting and hopefully I will still have it in stock!
