November 16, 200717 yr Would (95% for sure) have had the cash sorted to buy those tonight...5 minutes after being highlighted on here and someone else got themselves a great deal.

November 16, 200717 yr Funny would have said that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Why would anyone sell 15ks worth of records for 7k.....

November 16, 200717 yr Paul Dunn said: He's not that clever as his history shows he payed £155 for a Billy Prophet bootleg Exactly what I thought
November 16, 200717 yr Tony Smith said: Exactly what I thought Some nice UK Items though. Depends if Condition as Described I suppose, suprised the seller didn't sell them as Individual Items. They appear to be a regular ebayer (2230) feedback. No doubt went for a Quick Turnaround of Cash. Be Interesting to know what they paid for someones lifetime collection. An Instant collection, becomes more of a Bargain the more I think about it. No traveling, hunting etc, the thrill of the chase ain't there but Instant Collection.

November 16, 200717 yr You have to feel a bit sorry for the guy who had to sell them in the first place.

This reminds me of the time that I was waiting Outside a Second Hand Shop in Doncaster for It to Open. The guy who owned It normally opened around 10:00 but was late. Up walks this Woman with a Suitcase, nothing unusual about that as the Shop was near to the Railway Station. I Was only about 16 but had been working for a year on Apprentice wages. Casual chat for a few minutes and then the Owner came. Being a Gentleman I let her go Into the shop first and headed straight for the records. Stunned and Gutted I heard her ask him "How Much For This Case Of Records", and watched him offer her £3 which she took. When I looked at the records, they were all UK Soul Labels. Over the next couple of days my savings were used to buy as many as I could afford. If only the subject of records had come up, as I had just over £5 on me. Apprentice wages at the time 4 pounds, 19 shillings and 6 pence. An Instant Collection and missed the bargain.
