Mr Soul Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I THOUGHT THAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME , HE SEEMS TO GO FOR ANY THING OF INTEREST TO ME
chrissie Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I THOUGHT THAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME , HE SEEMS TO GO FOR ANY THING OF INTEREST TO ME perhaps its the bloke who won 16k on the lottery show and was going to spend it all on NS records and he heard you two had impecable taste and follows you around QoFxx

Just looked on ebay & he's bidding on 25 pages worth of records.. over 280 records...!? you dont think he's employed by ebay to bump up the prices do you if so is'nt that illegal practice comment not too be taken too seriousely ,dont want a law suit off the guy eh would be just interesting to know if he's a fellow sourcer cos he does know his soul
Tsu Tomatoes Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 think it's the latter. Just looked on ebay & he's bidding on 25 pages worth of records.. over 280 records...!? Eh? How can you tell how many records he/she's bidding on? Whoever it is obviously knows their onions, 'cos they don't bid on rubbish
Pete S Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 It's someone bidding on behalf of one of the country's top dealers. Work it out.
jasonion Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) Go to your Ebay summary , on the left is 'search for items' ,go to search by bidder . Who you got doing your dirty work for you then Pete? Edited October 14, 2007 by jasonion
Guest Trevski Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Eh? How can you tell how many records he/she's bidding on? Whoever it is obviously knows their onions, 'cos they don't bid on rubbish I like him 'cos I let him find the good stuff for me..
Sunnysoul Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 It's someone bidding on behalf of one of the country's top dealers. Work it out. Is that dealer a Soul Source member ?
Guest Trevski Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) It's someone bidding on behalf of one of the country's top dealers. Work it out. Â True. Thing is, if you 'shadow' him, 'cos of the dealer thing, they don't always go to top dollar on stuff, as a profit has to be made. So.... SNIPE HIM!! Edited October 14, 2007 by Trevski
pikeys dog Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I think it may be TB, but not 100% sure as he has another ID that he sells on...
Guest Trevski Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I think it may be TB, but not 100% sure as he has another ID that he sells on... Is he still 'soulmenagerie'??
pikeys dog Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Is he still 'soulmenagerie'?? Was last time I bought a record off if his eBay sales - approx 6 months ago.

All's fair and all that, but I was begining to wonder. Seen a couple of current live ebay auctions that I thought that I had the good fortune to stumble upon and there is already a bid from them.

Quinvy Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 It's someone bidding on behalf of one of the country's top dealers. Work it out. Pete, he doesn't work for the dealer anymore.
Guest Bearsy Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Put it this way, he/she bids on the records as soon as they come on ebay so he is then obviously watching them in his ebay, if no one else bids he/she wins the records bloody cheap, it is nice too see that person bidding on a record you got your eye on as like a few others have said he/she has great taste. I do it quite a bit too

Sean Hampsey Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 True. Thing is, if you 'shadow' him, 'cos of the dealer thing, they don't always go to top dollar on stuff, as a profit has to be made. So.... SNIPE HIM!! That's true. It's always amused me how he bids so early. I've beat him on several things at the last drop of the hammer! He's one of 3-4 multi-bidders that are well worth watching!
Richard Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) Hmmm, something makes me think Rivalino2 may be just about to change his/her user name as they've been rumbled Why on earth didn't they use a snipe service that keeps your id secret until the last few seconds? Edited October 14, 2007 by richard

I have to say, I've seen that username on ebay but generally not noticed it much because they win very few records. If you just search items they won, it's a relatively small number... The users I get frustrated over are the ones that consistently outbid me. I was just shocked to see how many thing this person actually bid on when I searched, I've never seen such a "serious" ebayer not snipe.
Pete S Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Pete, he doesn't work for the dealer anymore. No but it is who I think it is
Dean Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 To his credit he recently alerted me to a boot I was bidding on, me not knowing it was a boot (presume he was being genuine, no reason to think any other)
Guest Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 To his credit he recently alerted me to a boot I was bidding on, me not knowing it was a boot (presume he was being genuine, no reason to think any other) Now this is probably a stupid question but I'm tired (just back from Prestatyn) - why is everyone so secretive about their ebay ID's?. Often wondered... there have been times I've been bidding against friends and if I'd known it was them I wouldn't have carried on. Jayne.x.

Often wondered... there have been times I've been bidding against friends and if I'd known it was them I wouldn't have carried on. Jayne.x. I once bid and won a record only to find out it was toby, I was alerted to this when he rang me to tell me, half and hour after the auction had finished, I had just bought a record off him and would bring the record the following week when I saw him......................it was a nice cheapie and he wavered the £3 for the reocrd as well as the postage, hence his feedback was very good, what else can you leave a seller for a free record, would of saved him the ebay fees had I known he was selling it QoFxx
Tabs Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 The blokes don't want their partners to know how much thay are speding on vinyl.

Because some people track what you are bidding on and sometimes snipe you if they are after it as well. For instance you may have spotted something they haven't because it was mispelt or listed for the flip Edited October 14, 2007 by richard

For instance you may have spotted something they haven't because it was mispelt or listed for the flip Ah gotcha ! so you'd end up doing someone else's searching...? Really?.. I'd never do that to anyone I knew. I wouldn't want people to think I was that much of a bitch!. Jayne.
Pete S Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I thought they'd stopped this - in fact they did stop it a while back...and not just certain European countries

Richard Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I thought they'd stopped this - in fact they did stop it a while back...and not just certain European countries they certainly haven't removed search for bidder
vaultofsouler Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 they certainly haven't removed search for bidder Sorry but as Pete said the option was removed.... obviously back now.... don't know how long it's been back.... if fact until this thread wasn't aware it was back.....
Pete S Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 they certainly haven't removed search for bidder Yes they did, you could search for bidder but it would only show you auctions that had ended
Richard Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) yep it's defo back Cue everyone all logging into ebay all at one go Edited October 14, 2007 by richard
Spanner Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Yes they did, you could search for bidder but it would only show you auctions that had ended From Lancashire ,dealers up there ?
Guest Trevski Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 yep it's defo back Cue everyone all logging into ebay all at one go Bidnappers "Shadow" tool is the best way I have found to track multiple bidders. Takes all the hard work out of it!
Guest Trevski Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) sorry mate, dont believe ya...i think you were up all night doing it, thats why ya didnt come over to leeds, anyway, you'll be pleased to know that next leeds goes on til 1am Great news, and if you need a hand behind the decks anytime, I could bring an extra 10/12 bods with me, plus all those that will come just to hear my tunes, of course!
