Geordiejohnson Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Hi All Just read these threads and a conversation I had with a guy about 12 months ago which at the time i thought not alot of, has zoomed into my Grey matter. I was told off this guy (Who is a massive collector of about 30,000 records to date and for that reason will not give out his name, he also travels to the states about 5 times a year collecting, I have not found him to be a bullshiter in any way,) He said that on one of his visits late last year he had heard of a guy who had and was about to filter into the market - near/if not perfect counterfeits of big value records, and apparently had his hands on some original plates as well... whether this is the same character or they really are genuine I dont know but it seems strange. Has anyone else heard about this <_< Geeoooordie

Yesterday I emailed the seller and offered a trade for a certain item, but whilst doing so added: "Heard there are some counterfeits nocking about, supposedly from the same guy that pressed the Oxford Nights" And to follow this, he same seller has ended everything he had up for sale. Wonder if I'm responsible or it is in fact to give his 'valued customers' a private auction..??....... I'm onto you Mr. Group records!!!!!!! :angry: :diablo:
Mormar44 Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Not sure if its already been noted but have just been on the bay and hes removed all his items from sale!!
Guest Dan Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 Anybody up for double or treble bidding - same amounts on same records - to see if he really has only got one copy of each?
Simon T Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I think they are all legit and just must have come from a US based Northern collector with a love of mint records with black labels and silver writting..... Oxford Nights Soul Communicaters Del Larks Demos Flash McKinley

Oxford Nights Soul Communicaters Del Larks Demos Flash McKinley link If it wan't for the fact that the O-N's were up every other week then this could almost be believable.... same as his Singing Swinging Counts.... will have to wait and see re the rest.... although I find it quite strange that the "seller" has taken them all down .... did anyone e-mail him or does he read this forum ....
Geordiejohnson Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Mark Billytheboot contacted him and asked some heavy questions within a few hours they were all pulled from ebay Now call me cynical but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Geeooordie :diablo:

vaultofsouler Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Hi Mark, the bloke with the Oxford Nights is diff to the other seller with Soul Communicaters etc... Rich link Yeh Rich, I know..... l-p and b-b/g-r.... I was referring to l-p putting stuff out every week so people became very warey.... where as b-b/g-r tends to filter the same tune slowly so keeping the are they/aren't they debate ongoing....
