SHEFFSOUL

close but no cigar...maybe more of a cleethorpes sound..

yep..its bugging me...can't find it amongst the mecca playlists on YT..and i can only remember the intro..but it was massive and i dont think its rare...

no sorry...played same time as liberty, Hosanna, babe ruth , jobell etc...

sorry no soundclip..i'm putting together a set for a pal who like the 70's mecca/cleethorpes new type sounds. i remembered a track that was a fsst suffler with dadah dadahah dadha dadha.. repeated intro about (four times). Pretty sure it was a vocal and maybe inst flip..very popular about 75/76 and very quick beat...anyone..

rare enough..and on black iss too...i'm impressed!!

Anyone recommend where i can buy those instant pop -out frames that hold 12" LP's?..a good value well made type please.Similar to one shown...

now then..behave!

yes..that suits me...on a final note..ive considered the possibilities since this transaction began..and i still think ive called it correctly..

yes i agree..i meant that at least hes honest about the REASON to want to return ( again i agree with you once its bought its his)..

who knows..i refunded all his costs..( i'm out two way postage)..and if he'd said look ive changed my mind cos i found it cheaper fair enough..but to LIE?...

ok..it doesnt appear that there is a winner..certainly not me..as i called the buyers 'bluff' he then faced a dilema, should he keep the uncracked record and swallow his failed attempt to force a discount or return for full refund? He chose the latter. As you say he may have thought he paid too much (doubtful) or simply changed his mind..or another reason/whatever..to fabricate a situation to try and cover his tracks is the fraud..and ive made that clear..

at a record fair in Birmingham Ala..last year..a guy asked me if i'd used this method..i hadn't..he said it doesnt work as well with styrene discs?..it sounds great in theory..but ive yet to try it..anyone comment about the use of glue on styrene?

not anymore!

yes i got the tune back.. but its still a lie..dishonest..and for me that excludes the feedback system..ive exposed a dishonest buyer who lied about the condition of a 45..

i did consider it might arrive ( damaged) that i'd completely missed it even after cleaning and test playing it..so i suggested to the buyer that he return it..and i'd contact the PO about claiming for the damage.Which i wouldve done and also would have been guided by the PO as to how the damage happened.The record arrived back ( you can draw your own conclusion) in the same condition as it went out..

that doesnt make sense..i assumed it had been damaged in transit..i suggested he return it and i'd try to claim through the PO...he even had the cheek to say if i needed him to confirm damage to the PO he would do..

tbh..i thought i'd easily find it..now, in the past ive received records that were damaged..and ive replied with a photo of the damage asking shall i return or will you replace/whatever..

the thing you are missing is that the buyer lied about the condition of the record he recieved..this is not about a difference of opinion in the condition ( for example his VG+ versus my VG+) its a blatant lie in an attempt (in my opinion) to drive the price down..its similar to saying you never recieved it..its a lie..and think that unless this practice is exposed it will happen again..

agree..but its the principle..he'll think twice before he tries it again...

agree that he has the right to haggle..but he claimed it was cracked..( a half inch crack would be pretty noticeable)..which it isnt..so, to be specific it was an attempted scam..if i had offered the disc at discount due to 'damage' then thats a scam..because the 45 clearly wasnt/isnt cracked or damaged.i think he tried it on and came unstuck..thats my point..hes gained nothing really..and ive lost 2 x postage ( no big deal) and hes wasted my time..i cant see why you can't see the unfairness here..he claimed it was cracked..by quite a margin..if he'd have said sorry but its not in the condition i expected fair enough..but he's lied..simple...i stand by my naming and think its time to stop this kind of behaviour..

After a recent bad experience with a buyer ive decided to name and shame after well known and respected dealer encouraged me to do so.A week or so ago i advertised a bunch of records here on soul-source. A reply came with 'whats your best price' (on one 45), i said as advertised as i'd seen it for twice the price. Second reply ' i know its cheeky, but will you inc post?', No i countered its a great copy plays superb. 'ok i'll have it.Money rcvd by paypal and 45 sent.End of story i thought. Wrong, few days later a new message ' its got a 10mm crack, pls advise'. My suspicions aroused i suggested to return it.At no point did he say where the crack was, or if the 45 played or skipped or any further info. The 45 arrived back today..and guess what? NO CRACK. Ive inspected the disc thoroughly under strong light..still no crack. ive refunded the buyer inc his return postage.i dont sell records often thru soul-source and this is one of the reasons why (not soul-source fault) so ive decided to name the buyer hoping this will alert other sellers and deter scammers.its not an uncommon thing which is why i'm naming.. Buyers name Ciro Affronti, from Kettering..on SS as big-c

as far as i can remember..Mansfield DJ Derek banner was the first tp play this off the album..he played it in Mr M's..
