Gene-r Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 Just look at it now!!! Someone's had the right idea! https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW
Steve G Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 Girl's blouse. No, you pay the total of the bid on the auction, nothing else, unless you snipe it Scaredy cat. I imagine that an appropriate response to any attempt to recover such an amount would both begin and end in "f". Anyone feel like asking a question on the listing itself for posterity's sake? Maybe linking this thread? link I calculate his fee as a seller to be 10,000 now .....will certainly raise "eyebrows" in California "E-Bay Towers" and be flashing up on somebody's "screen" (if they're in)
Gasher Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 dont be surprised if Kenny Burrell out bids you hahaha the gasher

soul45s Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 Now "maxed out" at 10m Gasher - I think that is as high as ebay goes (though I cannot be sure )....game over on the bidding front - lets see what happens next.... link I have been watching this on and off all day laughing my socks off..I was also offered the chance to buy for 1900 dollars after I emailed him to ask if he accepted paypal soon after this was listed on ebay. I felt a bit mischievous tonight so I emailed the seller and asked: Hi I should have bought it yesterday when I had the chance for 1900 dollars! I dont suppose you have more than one copy have you? The high bidder won the 'rollover' lottery last week here in England thats why he's spending so much money! regards Paul Hello, i'm agree to sell with 1900USD now, let me know? so....what now? ?????
mischief Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 Somebody at home could be watching ebay thinking S*'T I've got a copy of that i'm gonna stick it on Ebay when that one ends... what a result i'll take the misses away on holiday next week!!! Be worth keeping an eye out to see if anyone puts one on there afterwards.
Jo Law Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 This seller is not so daft--he can spell now and know in the correct tense when hes after the dosh-----bastard wants a bleeding good thump---- jo
Guest Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 dont be surprised if Kenny Burrell out bids you hahaha the gasher link kenny's not that daft. he is a very nice man who uses his money wisely.
Guest dodger Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I mailed the seller and asked: Hi there What more do you want, from my life, what more do you want, from my life? And he hasn't come back to me yet . . .
Guest rachel Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I mailed to ask him "what numbers are stamped in the vinyl so I know which release it is before I bid"... I've no idea what matrix numbers it should have if any, not a clue.. but hard to answer if you don't have the record in front of you... His reply: "Hello, The price i will ask for it it's 1500USD.If you are ready to buy it,i will need to know all your full details,like your full name and your full address,so we can close the transaction.The transaction will be close using eBay Purchase Protection,and eBay will insured it,all the shipping cost i will pay for it,and will be made using FedEx service,and will take max. 2 working days,and the shipping will be insured.If you are ready to buy it,just mail me all the info i need and we will start this purchase, Thank you,"

Still, it's not like I've got much feedback to lose I suppose...
Guest Andy BB Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 I'd certainly feel pretty foolish if I'd put in a serious bid early doors before I noticed all these shenanigans. (I did notice as soon I'd bid, honest).

Guest Andy BB Posted April 15, 2005 Posted April 15, 2005 All the people in our office obviously know about my Northern Soul obsession and I was chatting to the lad next to me when I 'found' that Gene Toones. He thought I was a bit odd bidding $800 for a record. He asked me about an hour ago if I won the auction, and the rest of the team were listening in as he called me mental. I replied nonchalantly... "No, it looks like the big money boys have found it" "what's it going for then?" "Oh, it's up to 10 million now" Their faces... I wish I had a camera!
