Frank Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I know who is listing this and he is a thief. Do not bid, cancel your snipes. The record does not exist. There's a queue of people waiting to have a quiet word with him but he's in hiding! NORTHERN SOUL TIMMIE WILLIAMS "Competition" US 7" eBay Item number 100500940062 He stole the scan from a previous listing which can be seen here https://www.popsike.com/php/detaildata.php?itemnr=4878379215 Cheers, Frank Driscoll Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Long way to go and hide.... Australia.... Guys, Frank is in Australia and if he says the guy 'auctioning' the record is dodgy I guess it would be best to take heed. Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean A new E-bay member and zero feedback, I'd be suspicious. I'll e-mail him asking if he would use an escrow service. I'll post up the reply, if I get one.

Sean Ey up Sean.... Just presumed he meant hiding from buyers over here.... hence comment on distance/location of seller.... Wasn't questioning it being "dodgy".... new seller with a "borrowed" scan says it all .... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

You're dead right about zero feedback and pinched scan being a bit of a giveaway. Cheers Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tabs Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I actually got a reply:- "What Is Escrow? I don't think we have it here in Australia. I mainly would use Western Union or bank deposit. They are the best here. Thanks." After re reading the auction his preferred payment is "Overseas Buyers: Bank Deposit / Western Union Transfer / Cash in Registered Envelope." That probably says it all. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Wasn't it us who sent all the crooks to Australia in the 1st place ....you just wait til we beat you in the soccer ! Frank's from Melbourne and has seen this character before.

Guest Baz Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 "I'm not a huge fan of any of the Beatles CD releases - their songs were recorded with the intention of being released on vinyl, and as far as I am concerned, that is the way they should be heard."
