Soul Salad Posted December 22, 2023 Posted December 22, 2023 But there's another identical BIN one on there for £55 or so (says 1970s issue)? - buyer therefore must be convinced he/she got themselves a bargain original

But it's rather hopeless and maybe even infringing the eVilBay seller's guidelines to discredit other's sellers to begin with. And indirectly incriminating the EvilBay 'blind eye' on the matter after so many motivated reports...
Okehdownsouth Posted December 23, 2023 Posted December 23, 2023 Hi All I never did recieve a reply from ebay to my many compliants. However when I checked my 'Watch List, Ended Items' It now says: Item ID 375118161070 is no longer available. Hopefuly ebay stepped in and told the twat to withdraw it, or even deleted it for him? If it appears on here again then we all ought to throw huge bids at, we could make the highest priced record ever NOT sold on ebay, I'm in for £50,000 for starters, anyone who dares to outbid me and I will increase by £10,000 increments. Merry Christmas and a Soulful New Year Paul

Mick Reed Posted December 23, 2023 Posted December 23, 2023 It shows green sold in the completed listing.So i think it went through.
Okehdownsouth Posted December 23, 2023 Posted December 23, 2023 I know but if you click on it you will get the "We Looked Everwhere" notice which means that it has either been removed or is too old and certainly is not too old! I feel fairly confident that ebay stopped this, but I am going to message the seller and ask him

Psamsara Posted December 23, 2023 Posted December 23, 2023 Same story.... as usual. Btw, in my correspondance with him he even mentioned that he saw the topic i've opened, so he's probably reading this as well. 1

But if he read it the first time why did he repeat the same thing a second time... Bootlegs, look-a-likes and what have you fooling OVO rule for that reason too. The only plastic involved with OVO is the grooved one. Not the people.

You're absolutely right there but it's not my bid here (not even my idea) but indeed any bid is binding (unless withdrawn in time) but the seller's description is also binding to what the customer will effectively receive. If one bids £5.000 thinking that he / she might just get away with it's too short I agree. He / she will have to honor the payment, receive the item then start to contact the seller to find an 'gentlemen's' agreement if ever. If none is find then he / she will be eligible to open a claim case hoping that the small hands (heads) stupid-O agents treating these claims 'item not fitting the description' will give him / her the green light fir a full refund. This is where the eVilBay and partner in crime PayPool bad policing lately and poorer treatments in such claims on such matters is clearly leaving too many breaches for such vicious crooks malpractices to operate shamelessly.

Okehdownsouth Posted December 24, 2023 Posted December 24, 2023 If the spoof bids do backfire then the only thing that we can do is save his details and next time he puts up a load of fakes, we start the compliants again. Hopefully if ebay get enough they will close his acount. I did get one closed just over a year ago. I messaged UK a seller that was selling a loads of counterfiet copies of tunes in the £100-£500 price range and asked him why he was not descirbing them as repro's or reissues and he got really abusive and threatened me, so ebay banned him. Hopefully our little freako friend in Germany will eventually get that way and ebay will do something. Keep up the good work ladies and gents and lets try to put an end to these scammers. 1
Okehdownsouth Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Hi All What's the general concensus on this one, he does seem to be a genuine seller and I have seen a lot of big hiters from him over time. https://www.ebay.com/itm/276271074922?hash=item40530a0e6a:g:7PgAAOSwNRllmeAv

Soulgalore Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Reputable US seller. Sells regularly, 23K+ (600+ in last 12 months all positive) feedback don't think he'd want to put that at risk for short-term gain?
Steve Foran Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Looks good but would need to see the run out groove to be positive.
Vadnochka Posted January 12 Posted January 12 One of the major sellers' of major big ticket items for years - just look at this current listing - Chris Carnahan has been a reputable seller for decades - pre internet as well. Along with Carolina soul and others a bellweather for proper sounds and always 1st class service. None of the Global Shipping robbery. I've bought loads over the years. I can't imagine him not doing due process. 3
Modularman Posted January 14 Posted January 14 He's also selling a legit John & The Weirdest which ends tonight https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335199625870?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ZQ5z446yTgO&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=RbQp7EHTSKy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Okehdownsouth Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I know, I was hoping that the bidding would stay in the mid 2000's and I might have been tempted, but at £4k I think that it s a bit over the top considering the condition, and I am a bit of an obsessive when it come to condition.

Okehdownsouth Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Probablly THE best double sider ever! Just proves how strange auctions can be. The last one I saw for sale was with Manship, it was EX verging on M- and went for £3k. I missed the bloody aution otherwise I would have gone for it because I had a stack of cash from a few that John had sold for me the previous month. Never mind, if I wait long enough another is bund to turn up.
