Pete S Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 (edited) PETE SMITH 28 JENKS ROAD WOMBOURNE WOLVERHAMPTON WV5 0BL 01902 893569 Pete.smith@freeuk.com Hi I realise this is a weird time to be sending out a list but I've got to get everything done before Thursday really as it's my mates funeral so I thought if I do the list early it would give me a chance to get everything sorted. Thanks so much to everyone who sent messages of sympathy for Paul, I've collected everything up for his parents. Also thanks for the donations for those albums last week, most offers were very fair and I took them. The guy who offered 15 quid for a 75 quid album is not on the list any more! Also if anyone needs a lift to the funeral on Thursday - from Wolverhampton station for instance - I'd be happy to pick them up. Right anyway some nice Northern rarities here PLUS a very unusual one for me, some 70's and crossover things as well. Hope you find something of interest. I should be available tonight up to about 8 o clock and tomorrow from 10 til say 8 again. Oh one more thing - everyone who pays by card, streamline are now making me input the three digit code off the back of the card so I'll need that as well from now on Cheers Pete JIMMY SOUL CLARK - I'LL BE YOUR WINNER - SOUL HAWK VG+ 80 GENE VITO - UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY - DECCA DEMO EX 30 Little crack on the run on so reduced THE KNICKERBOCKERS - WISHFUL THINKING - CHALLENGE DEMO EX 75 JOHNNY DYNAMITE - THE NIGHT THE ANGELS CRIED - MINARET DEMO EX 75 CANDY & THE KISSES - TONIGHTS THE NIGHT - SCEPTER DEMO EX 80 TEDDY RANDAZZO - YOU DON'T NEED A HEART - DCP EX 125 FREDDIE HOUSTON - SOFT WALKIN - TOTO DEMO EX 100 BILLY STORM - EDUCATED FOOL - INFINITY DEMO VG+ 100 SHANE MARTIN - I NEED YOU - EPIC M- 100 LONNIE LESTER - YOU CAN'T GO - NU TONE EX 75 JOE TEX - I WANNA BE FREE - DIAL EX- 80 THE ARTISTICS - THIS HEART OF MINE - OKEH M- 80 DOROTHY BERRY - YOU BETTER WATCH OUT - PLANETARY M- 60 JACKIE LEE - DARKEST DAYS - ABC EX 80 THE TYN TYMES - BABY I LOVE YOU - MUSIC BOX EX 125 MARV JOHNSON - COME ON AND STOP - UA M 100 BILLY ECKSTINE - I WONDER WHY - MOTOWN M- 100 MARVIN SMITH - WHO WILL DO YOUR RUNNING NOW - MAYFIELD M- 125 THE DRAPERS - YOUR LOVE HAS GONE AWAY - GEE DEMO EX 125 AUGUST & DENEEN - WE GO TOGETHER - ABC DEMO EX 125 MICHAEL & RAYMOND - MAN WITHOUT A WOMAN - RCA DEMO M- 100 ESKEW REEDER - UNDECIDED LOVE - INSTANT EX 100 CLIFF NOBLES - MY LOVES GETTING STRONGER - ATLANTIC VG++ 125 THE SWEET THREE - BIG LOVERS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES - DECCA DEMO EX 100 JO ANN GARRETT - A WHOLE NEW PLAN - CHESS ISSUE EX 125 LENIS GUESS - JUST ASK ME - LEGRAND EX 60 JAMES BOUNTY - PROVE YOURSELF A LADY - COMPASS EX 125 JELLY BEANS - YOU DON'T MEAN ME NO GOOD - ESKEE DEMO M- 150 THE LOLLIPOPS - LOVING GOOD FEELING - IMPACT EX 125 THE MAGNIFICENTS - MY HEART IS CALLING - DEE GEE DEMO VG++ 125 MARSHA GEE - BABY I NEED YOU - UPTOWN M- 150 PAUL VARISCO - TELL ME WHERE LOVE GOES - KAPP DEMO EX 125 BARBARA MCNAIR - YOU'RE GONNA LOVE MY BABY - MOTOWN EX 150 VICTOR KNIGHT - CHINA TOWN - RON CRISS M 125 ROY HAMILTON - CRACKIN UP OVER YOU - RCA DEMO EX 175 THE DYNAMICS - I NEED YOUR LOVE - RCA DEMO EX 175 DAVE NEWMAN - MAKE UP YOUR MIND - LOOK DEMO EX 125 VALA REEGAN - FIRE MAN - ATCO DEMO VG++ 180 THE VEL VETS - I GOT TO FIND ME SOMEBODY - 20TH CENTURY EX 175 (nasty looking scratch near the end - only audible on the last 5 seconds of the fadeout) Some Late Arrivals & Odds and Ends THE PARLIAMENTS - DON'T BE SORE AT ME - REVILOT EX 15 CHRISTINE KITTRELL - CALL HIS NAME - FEDERAL EX- 15 LITTLE MILTON - SOMETIMEY - CHECKER M- 15 PAT PETERMAN - LOVE THE WAY YOU DO YOUR THING - 123 DEMO VG+ 15 LITTLE EVA - TAKIN' BACK WHAT I SAID - DIMNENSION DEMO VG+ 25 KIM TOLLIVER - I GOTTA FIND A WAY - ROJAC DEMO M- 25 THE WANTED - IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR - THE DETROIT SOUND VG++ 25 JO ANN KING - LET THEM LOVE AND BE LOVED - FAIRMOUNT DEMO EX- 25 THE ENCHANTERS - YOU WERE MEANT TO BE MY BABY - LOMA DEMO EX 30 THE SOUL CITY - EVERYBODY DANCE NOW - GOODTIME EX 30 KATHY & THE CALENDARS - PLEASE DON'T GO - PORT VG++ 30 THE VALADIERS - I FOUND A GIRL - CANADIAN TAMLA EX+ 40 FREDDIE HOUSTON - SOFT WALKIN' - TOTO VG++ 50 THE MIRACLES - IF YOUR MOTHER ONLY KNEW - CANADIAN TAMLA M 50 THERESA LINDSAY - IT'S LOVE - CORREC-TONE EX- 125 LIZ LANDS - MIDNIGHT JOHNNY - GORDY EX 75 PERCY WIGGINS - IT DIDN'T TAKE MUCH - RCA BLACK ISSUE!

Sunnysoul Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 Pete , innocent but serious question here, and this is not meant to cast any aspersions on you specifically, but as you're a well known and respected dealer, I'm curious as to your opinion ... If a record has cue burn, do you down grade the condition of the record ? In other words if it LOOKS mint but has cue burn do you give it only an Exc grade or VG+ or whatever ... If a dealer sells a record with cue burn but does NOT mention that when he sells it , is the existence of cue burn alone a valid reason for a purchaser to return the record ?

Butting in, don't mind me...but the answer is yes. All records for sale should be PLAY graded as well, since that's what you do with a record...PLAY it. If a seller doesn't mention it, then he is being dishonest. All IMO, of course! -Mike

If a dealer sells a record with cue burn but does NOT mention that when he sells it , is the existence of cue burn alone a valid reason for a purchaser to return the record ? If a record has cue burn it has to be mentioned, as does styrene noise, which is common - even on mint records you can get styrene noise. I try and play everything, sometimes maybe if it's a big list with a lot of 10 quid records on then some may slip through but I play about 98%. If a record has cue burn I just comment on the burn - for instance, if it starts before the track begins and ends on the first note, I'll still grade it as EX but mention the burn. If it's a significant burn, say 2 seconds or more, I'd probably downgrade it as well as explaining it. The bottom line is, I try to think how I would feel if someone sent me a record and hadn't described a problem - I wouldn't be happy, so I try not to let that situation occur.

Doesn't half do my head in when people say that records have been visualy graded. They can tell me that if I want to buy a Picasso.
Pete S Posted July 6, 2006 Author Posted July 6, 2006 Spot on! Doesn't half do my head in when people say that records have been visualy graded. They can tell me that if I want to buy a Picasso. It's impossible to accurately visualy grade a styrene record.
