Edwin S Wales Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) It might just be me,but this seller doesn't seem kosher to me.He's turned up several top dollar 45's..some of which have sold recently for big money on ebay,Shirley Edwards etc. https://cgi.ebay.com/Northern-Soul-Yvonne-V...1QQcmdZViewItem He's also selling other pricey items by Pink Floyd etc. High bidder is kept private...short listings of the days.[perhaps to stop it getting discussed on here?] Could it be one old our old friends perhaps?...Hope I'm wrong....what do you think Edited October 20, 2005 by Edwin S.Wales Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest noss Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 That Yvonne Vernee is the one that closed on 13th October that was sold by darkhorsesmoke, ebay number :- 4775477115 Likewise the Shirley Edwards item no: 4776364748 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Potts Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Likewise the Shirley Edwards item no: 4776364748 Yep, thats the one. Bet this turns out to be that same twat as last time, & yet again ebay will sweep it under the carpet & pretend it's not happening. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulof Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 looks very very strange as you say. a bit too many big items at the same time . not exactly northern soul he´s been dealing with before either. Guess hes keeping it private so no warnings can be send out to bidders. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
pikeys dog Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 All the scans come from different sources... some are scanners, some are digital cameras, some have been cropped, some are on cloth backgrounds... Dodgy as fcuk and then some. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Larsc Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 He must have broken his digital camera the same day he started selling rare 45's. All his hip-hop cd's have identical photos. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I emailed him and offered that my gf would pop in to Florida (where she's fictitiously on holiday) and meet him and pay for the records personally. "No meets, just Western Union"!!!! I also asked him about the Shirley Edwards being the same scan as last week and he said it was a "coincidence" . I've just told the plank he's a fraudster and that Ebay will be suspending his account. I also called him a knobhead. R Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Jason S Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Best option would be to create a new user account and take each of his scams up to $10,000,000 and then watch him pick up the final listing fee payments on those Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Craig the Manc Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Sorry guy's, but am I missing the vital link on this??? Seller's history looks fine. What should I be looking for in the way of a scam. Cheers Craig. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

What should I be looking for in the way of a scam. Cheers Craig. Craig, look at his feedback and the items he has sold - no other soul records at all. Too much of a coinicidence to be selling a handful of records and within that handful is Yvonne Vernee, Cashmeres, Bill Bush etc etc. Plus the pictures/scans he's used are from items that have recently sold on Ebay i.e he's nicked the pics from old auctions. Plus, he won't accept Paypal which gives a certain degree of protection. Get wise fella, always check feedback and what sort of items the feedback is for Rich Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

soul45s Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Looks like he changed his mind about trying to con lots of money out of us, bids were cancelled and the seller has ended the sales?
