I know thats the normal way of the auction but it said 1900 when I looked at 17;30....

anyone catch the closing price of velvets? auction was till 1900 not 1800 for some reason. Thank you.

Hi, please pm if you have one you are willing to move on with condition, price & version, Many Thanks. (I'm aware of ones on D/cogs).

Hi looking for a really nice clean copy, please pm price & condition, thank you.

I keep a spreadsheet updated with buys/sells, with estimate of values. Notes to confirm a record is original versus boot etc... In my demise wife, kids at least have a starting point to sort out. I have also made them aware of some trusted people who could make sure they dont get ripped off. If inheritance tax is an issue (?) would the 'real' values be declared by your beneficiaries (who may be unaware...) not as 'visible' as cash in the bank. For the avoidance of doubt I am not advocating anything here.

Brenda Holloway reconsider................

If such a collector was selling their collection that was all acquired some time ago you would have a good argument against 'trading' on the other hand someone regularly buying & selling, often selling some of the records after only holding them for a short period of time would struggle to argue 'not trading'. an important point that many dont appreciate is that HMRC may say they consider you are trading but if you disagree you can argue your case, even going to a tribunal (& subsequently appeal thro the courts...) and it would be decided on the balance of those 9 'badges of trade'.

Whether you are subject to income tax on selling records depends on whether HMRC consider you are trading. They look at so called 'badges of trade' to decide... this is helpful on this; THE BADGES OF TRADE USED BY HMRC The ‘badges of trade’ tests, are used by HMRC to help determine whether an activity is a trading activity (business). Careful consideration needs to be given when deciding if a hobby has become a taxable activity. If that happens, your trading activities will be subject to Income Tax and National Insurance. This post will provide basic information on badges of trade that HMRC use to establish if you are trading. What are Badges of Trade? HMRC will use some or all of the following nine criteria to assess if something is a trade: Profit-seeking motive The number of transactions The nature of the asset Existence of similar trading transactions or interests Changes to the asset The way sale is made The source of finance Time between purchase and sale Method of acquisition These ‘badges’ will not be present in every case and of those that are, some may point one way and some the other. The presence or absence of a particular badge is unlikely, by itself, to provide a conclusive answer to the question of whether or not there is a trade. The weight to be attached to each badge will depend on the precise circumstances. There have been many cases over the years as the answer has not been clear cut, which in turn have helped to create the badges of trade list by the precedents set.

This is v.rare & love it when chorus kicks in...

Sad news, nice guy & very helpful..... thoughts with family & friends.

We just got back from 10 days in Ibiza & go a couple of times a year. Most places we find the prices on a par with UK (apart from the super clubs......) & if you go to the more 'local' bars/restaurants very good value and much better food than UK. e.g. grilled sole for me, missus had steak. 2 beers each (estrella galicia in bottles), 36euros, free nightcap afterwards.

same here....
