Popular Post Dave N Posted June 27, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2014 I have had contact with this seller and he may be referring to me with reference the B side of the record for sale. The reason I asked for this was he had not stated if it was the original, the B side was not shown and the record has been booted. One way of telling if it is original is by what is on the B side. I mailed him twice because he did not reply to my initial question and I was interested in the record, I don't think this is unreasonable and he replied with a long winded reply to the point of saying I was questioning his integrity and that he only sold originals. I was not to happy with his email which was rude in places, I did not bid on the item due to the content of his email. I buy form Ebay and on here and if I am paying good money for a record surely I have the right to ask the question to ensure it is original, to many people pay over the odds for booted records thinking they are original as seen and commented on here.

davidwapples Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 How hard is it to list both sides of the records? , it just means you have to type a few extra words in the listing which may help the sale if someone searches for the other song on the site Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ian Dewhirst Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Ask him what's on the B side of Willie Kendricks and is it an original He only sells originals Pete.......quote:- "all my records are originals" I can understand where he's coming from but you have to have a higher tolerance level for record selling these days I think. I've had some lunatic situations which sometimes made me lose the will to live. There's not enough hours in the day to deal with some of 'em. Like the guy who ordered and bought a specific promo and then accused me of selling something illegal! Or the guy who bought a Tommy Boy white 12" promo and then refused to accept that it was a 'proper' promo, even though it had "Promotional Copy: Not For Sale" printed on the label! Or the guy from Brazil who wouldn't accept that the postal system would not get his records there quickly and who launched a dispute after 5 days and then received 'em 6 weeks later. And on and on and on LOL.... If I ever use e-bay again I'd be inclined to have a bit of fun too....... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Frankie Crocker Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) Suspect it could be another bitter and twisted Woppy Doo dealer, can't sell his lifetime's hoard but has a few decent soul records having collected by number and is unaware that the B side is the money track. Probably moved to Stoke having heard a rumour about some serious collectors in the area and a popular discotheque. Might have visited Las Vegas and got hold of a Richie Rosen customer service manual... Edited June 27, 2014 by FRANKIE CROCKER 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

El Corol Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 In fairness those are nice records for sale. His attitude towards listing a b side seems a little frustrating as I think it a resonable request. But you can't knock the music or black RCA issues.

Mr Smithy Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I agree about listing the B side and I can also see his point about some of the winners you find on EBay This was the description on one of his earlier ones so If he just paid JM probably top dollar a year ago there has to be a reason to sell If he really is ill and that is the reason I can see where he might be somewhat crabby on the other hand he does say "choons" which I could see would bring out the worst in people over the next couple of months I will be selling 40 - 50 records from my collection, these will in batches of 8 to ten records & will be put up about every two weeks, so please keep your eyes peeled for some cracking choons all on original labels. please note, I will have a fair percentage of these records listed elsewhere, so please do not pay for an item until you receive an invoice, this will also allow me to amend postage if you win multiple items, postage will be special delivery only, which is insured & next day delivery. I am sure you will agree this is self explanatory, so please don't email for more extra info, I am quite ill at the moment & have no wish to enter into protracted email conversations thanks for being understanding. rest assured these records are in top condition, most near mint with a couple of exceptions which will be listed in detail international g.t.o.s, I love my baby, rojac, demo, bought this from john manship about a year ago, bell sound stamped original & a very seldom seen demo, staggering mint condition, you wont find a better copy, real deal northern.

Cobbles Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Rod, pretty sure the buyer states in his +ve feedback that he returned the 45..... but yes of course seller could have spare copies... I myself (like many others) have duplicates of 45s in my collection.... fair play to him (seller) and hope he gets to sell the 45s he wants to without too much hassle especially as he's ill as stated in the post previous.. unfortunate circumstances to have to sell if that's the reason. franc Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Resisting the temptation to annotate this like a GCSE English text, I hope you get well soon and please note that the International GTO's - I Love My Messy Baby, is overrated, overpriced and much lower down the Northern tree than it once was, a wall of tempo that lacks melody and towards the end, loses direction...

stokesoulboy Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I actually know this guy pretty well, yes he has been ill of late and yes he has had a rough time thru the soul scene - he did his best to keep it ovo but alas the £3 carver boys playin records on the dr marten label made him sell up . He is a real nice person & so is his mrs - but be fair it's a great speech for an eBay sale !! I can vouch I looked thru the box and it was 100% original and tasty too !!
