I chose to contact this member in person to ask why he thinks it justified to post up a link like this??

I assumed he was the said ebay seller and was disgruntled because he didnt make anything on his sale, he informs me he is not

His words to me are as follows..

"To buy something with the express purpose of selling it at a much increased price

you might call it allocation, I call it "bang out of order"

Im really sorry but am i missing something here???

Not that i need to justify myself but for what its worth here goes,

I spend countless hours scouring ebay,sales lists,websites, and quite often find ,what i consider bargains ,so i buy em ,purely and simply to sell on ,for PROFIT in order to get the records i cant normally afford!

Am i the only person on here who uses this practice ??

I'd call his post out of order Nev.

Jeez, what's with some people.

Just wish I was better at doing it, the only way to afford improving collections sometimes I think. Good luck to you.

Hi Nev - have good 3 weeks in Oz.

We have all done it

Bought records and sold them on for a profit. & sold them for a loss-The govt are not interested in the latter! only the former.

The only problem I see is a prick like this reporting people to the tax man as making a profit could be seen as Unearned income and therefore tax is liable. (Someones girlfreind did this to get back at the bloke)

Wonder what everyone thinks of this!

Selling anything else quick Nev?

Thanx to all for making me feel normal again

Yep its true Steve ,sometimes at a loss ..which is what it's all about eh,speculate to accumulate.

Gonna try my best to enjoy my hols ,god knows it cant be hard after the yr thats been 2008

annis horriblis comes to mind

Limmie was for sale Steve but sadly for me it went along with a boat load of other stuff i'd have loved to keep.Not to worry though ,theyre only bits of plastic that can(most of em) be got back.

Well that's my philosophy

Careful Nev... your sounding a bit like Shep there mate

[Baz Atkinson]

ive just read this whats wrong with PEOPLE,the principles you use equate to what most series record collectors do and have done since ive been buying records ie 1978 AND WAY BEFORE,this is lower than a snakes belly,keep selling and doing what you do Nev,buy ,sell,trade,collect all part of the fun.

Nothing wrong with buying,selling or collecting like that in my opinion.Surely the more knowledge and experience you accumilate,the better you are at it.If you are unsure put a high reserve on it.

Your absolutely right Nev - Where you going to in Aussie-? My Brother lives in Mooloolaba in Queensland & Im taking my daughter there next year.

Have great Time mate and go find some records over there for $1 each and sell them on here for at least 50 quid cos you deserve it after the year you have had!

Hi Nev,

Only just seen this thread...... . Pretty much every collector I know will try to pick up bits cheap so that you can sell them on for a bit of profit.....all helps fund the collecting addiction . It's accepted practise, isn't it??? You use your knowledge and spend your time hunting down bargains then sell/trade on to get something crossed off the wants list and chances are the person you buy your want from is selling it at more than they paid for it etc etc etc.....thats how the whole collecting scene works!

If selling things on to make a profit is considered bad practise....then I must be satan himself .

Anyhow, have a great holiday...was great to meet you earlier in the year and fingers crossed that 2009 is a vast improvement on 2008 for you

CHEERS COL

Big thanx once again to all who've posted ,pm'd me with thier kind words .

I think i'll keep doin what i do until my eyes can't take looking at endless hours of ebay ,sales lists webpages etc etc..

Some lucky punter bagged a mint CLARA HARDY for just over $120 last night while i went out

Was gonna set my sniper but my conscience got the better of me ,well it would'nt have been fair to sell it for double ,would it

Any way i think we can put this to rest now seen as its a sales thread and this is slightly off topic.

ONLY 6 SLEEPS TO GO...........

[Blake H]

We all might have a chance to get some bargains over the next few weeks then Nev and there might be some Aussie 45s on your return?

Good trip
