Mike B Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Ladies and Gentlemen I commend to you: GLENN HENNING, 7 PORTSDOWN EDGWARE HA8 7LE Trading as select45rpm.com I ordered and paid for a record including £1.90 recorded delivery and today politely enquired whether it would be here by Friday. Mr Henning then snottily informed me I should read my emails as he had already told me it was being posted Thursday (no email was received by me lol ). I politely ( yes really!) thanked him for his customer service and told him I would recommend him to my friends and then received this well thought out reply: YOUR MESSAGES HAVE BEEN BLOCKED FROM THE SELECT45RPM SERVER WE HAVE NO INTEREST IN COMMUNICATING FURTHER WITH YOU, SO PLEASE GO AWAY. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS Hang on all I asked was would my record arrive by Friday Well Mr Henning I am also busy working hard to earn money to spend with record dealers like you, however I am not so busy I can't spare a little bit of time to recommend you to my friends as I promised I would - so Soul Sourcers if you want to pay over inflated postal rates and get sh*te customer service from someone who clearly thinks they are doing you a favour by selling you a record visit select45rpm.com
Pete S Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 He bought a load of ska off me so when I was running my little radio show, I emailed him as I thought he might be interested, he replied saying how dare I be so stupid to spam him and he had reported me to ebay!
Mike B Posted June 8, 2006 Author Posted June 8, 2006 He bought a load of ska off me so when I was running my little radio show, I emailed him as I thought he might be interested, he replied saying how dare I be so stupid to spam him and he had reported me to ebay! Pete he's a muppet - he just sent me an email that was headed: "do not get your sad mates to email exposing their stupidity, it's boring" and all it said inside was 'CYB' presumably cyb is some geeky slang for go boil your head or something. Anyway the blokes obviously deluded unless his normal level of customer service usually result in people other than the buyer emailing him to tell him he's a knob?, I've blocked him on my email. Happy days
Tabs Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 -->QUOTE(Mike B @ Jun 8 2006, 10:04 PM) link Pete he's a muppet - Agree with that statement. CYB = Cover your butt (I think)
timthemod Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I've bought a few things from him before and never had any problems. TTM

Gene-r Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 I can't believe Glenn would do this! I've bought/sold from him, and even met the guy - he seemed quite sound! He did sell me "Dr Truelove" for £15 in 1995, so have to say that I love him!

Gene-r Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Yeah he was ok back then Gene... Very true Pete................don't know what happened....................
Guest Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Very true Pete................don't know what happened.................... Maybe the fact that he sold it for £15 got to him ? how much profit did you make Gene
Gene-r Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Maybe the fact that he sold it for £15 got to him ? how much profit did you make Gene Literally gave it away for £125 a week later Dave!
Guest Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 (edited) mike Bolderson, 3 The Parkins, London Road, Capel St. Mary ,Ipswich IP92JH is the guy with the gripe. We'll post his name & address & see if he likes it! He never read his email saying his item would be posted & gets huffy when sent a brief message by the seller. Note he never says he was pleased with the record as he doesn't complain about that. We know the seller & he has no interest in posting about this, but we will. The original message was this: We were sent the trail of emails & here they are: ----- Original Message ----- From: mike To: select45rpm.com Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 5:37 PM Subject: Re: Jackie Wilson 45 check your emails sent this yesterday!!! ----------------------------------------------------------- Glad to see you have a way with customers - I'll be sure to recommend you to my friends! ----- Original Message ----- From: select45rpm.com To: mike Sent: Thursday, June 08, 2006 1:33 PM Subject: Re: Jackie Wilson 45 check your emails sent this yesterday!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ if that sounds rude & offensive to MIKE BOLDERSON then no wonder sellers want nothing to do with him! Note MB's snidey reply & then the seller replied (out of despair!) and then done the blocked email ----------------------------------------- I GIVE UP DON'T BOTHER ORDERING AGAIN AS THIS IS THE SILLY ATTITUDE YOU HAVE WE ARE BUSY & CAN'T WRITE LONG ESSAYS TO KEEP SMALL MINDED PEOPLE HAPPY---------------------------------------------------we hear also that MIKE BOLDERSON a few minutes later got a friend of his (or likely his own email) to send a childish rude word message via the sellers website. This explains the YOUR MATES comment! MB oughta grow up. Then MIKE BOLDERSON all upset comes and mouths off here. Big man! Now I know both parties of old, Mike is one I avoid, reasons I won't publish. Glenn does not suffer fools but will go beyond anyone to help if you have the decency to communicate properly. He is a busy guy doing far more than selling records. We've had words over the years as anyone does, but you know who's good & who's a timewaster! We know what CYB means too... Just my 2 pence worth. If this response gets removed the this site is unfairly biased. Edited September 28, 2006 by tony fredericks
Guest Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Literally gave it away for £125 a week later Dave! oh yes I asked him about this one too, was the days of Camden in 1995 where he had a record box. DR TRUELOVE he found 10 unplayed copies for £1 each and as they all jumped on the bluesy B side he only put £15 on them. At the time HARDLY ANYONE knew the record. I got one myself & smile each time I play it! Took 6 months to shift the lot & the shop were sick of playing it to customers as he added the next one! £400+ now is a great mark-up. Oops now I've said there are 10 out there! :o)
Guest Dante Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Well, I bought him 5 records more than a year ago, I found him a bit "special" ( ) but there was no problem... I've made deals with other most respected dealers, and they have been always nicer... Cheers Dante
Pete S Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 He's found some good UK northern newies in the past though..
Gene-r Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 (edited) Glenn has bought off me in the past (the most recent being two months ago), and I always find him to be approachable, friendly, and always says thanks in the way of positive feedback to those who deserve it. It's always been said about me that I don't suffer fools, and I know that I can react in the same way if pushed or crossed (not trying to take anyone's side, you understand - just saying it as it is). No problems from here....................... Edited September 28, 2006 by Gene-R

No problems from here....................... He got a bit sniffy with me a while ago but a simple explanation and showed him some earlier correspondence and he was perfectly sensible about the whole thng. Which shop did he have in Camden or was that at the Electric Ballroom fairs?
Mike B Posted December 3, 2010 Author Posted December 3, 2010 He's still a tosser of the first degree
