No rush mate, another couple of weeks before the main list goes out.... Chris

but in some cases people try to knock your set price down, it really fc*ks you off when you see them relisting at double what they paid you. Still you remember them, and they only buy ............. Sorry Steve, Dont agree, if you agree to sell a record at a certain price its up to the buyer what they do with it when they own it. I am always buying stuff on here cause i know i can resell it and when buyers buy from me I assume they are going to do the same thing, and good luck to them. Different sellers sell different stuff, i`m good mates with Shifty and we always have conversations about how he sells a certain record easily and I cant sell the same record for love nor money...and of course the other way around. Cheers, Chris

All of this "I`ll ask for the paypal fees because i sell my records cheap anyway" is rubbish! The record is only worth what someone will pay for it and as a dealer the last thing i want is 20 people asking for the same record when i have made a balls up with a price (See Connie Stevens on my last list), or at least sold something too cheap. Interesting that some dealers dont mind giving visa or mastercard their cut for their services but dont treat a paypal transaction in the same way. Its not the dealers I have a problem with, Most prices i see from dealers on here are very fair (especially Pete), because they actually want to sell the record. Plus, as a dealer myself i appreciate what goes into getting the records, costs of banking,tax,inport duty, mailers, advertising etc etc. The records i have a problem with are guys trying to flog a record for top book price and then still try and add paypal fees. As was mentioned earlier, thats why we see the same records on the sales forum again and again. Chris.

Stefan, Could you send me a list of some of the titles (i know that might be painful) and I`ll mention it on my next list and ask everyone to keep an eye out. You`d be amazed how many of them are not on Soul source. Chris

It never ceases to amaze me when people put records for sale on here at top book prices and then go and ask the buyer to pay an extra 4% if they want to use paypal! As a dealer, people who pay by paypal make my life a lot easier, we all know the benefits so why go and ask for another 4%, surely its just the cost of doing business? I would`nt mind if the 4% was built into the price of the record a little bit but a lot of record prices on here are straight out of Manships book...plus another 4%! Personally, it puts me off buying anything from anyone who asks for the extra 4% and if i really want the record I`ll send a cheque on principle...let him make a special visit to the bank, pay to park the car, wait 5 days for it to clear etc etc... I know we have been here before, just seems to be rife again... Chris.

I have always thought we should have a golf/soul weekend. A couple of rounds over a weekend, accomadation for Friday and Saturday nights and a soul night each night. There are plenty of soulies into golf... Chris

So sorry mate....Keep those fingers crossed I am sure they will turn up sooner or later, there are enough people out there who know they have been stolen to prevent them being moved on easily. I will miss you in Nurenburg! Chris

Stefan, Is there any update on this sad story yet mate? Chris

I have a copy of Richie Merritt "Its never too late/Can i get a rebate" on RAM. I cant seem to find realistic value on it, Manships guide only lists these 2 sides as coming out on Deltron (value £200) whilst all other RAM releases are valued at £10 to £15. Any help would be appreciated. TIA. Chris.

I dont know, it was a new one to me. Sold a copy on my list last month and had a hundred people onto it. I had another which i put on ebay, be interested to see what it goes for. Currently at £103.00 with 6 hours to go... Chris.

Hi Matt, Yes it was unissued until it came out on the CD then i believe it got a 45 release on Kent. I have an acetate of the track which is a different, much more sparse mix, sounds great played out! Chris.

A very decent price for one of the "Ultimates" Dave! Chris.

Connie Stevens finishes today...get your bids in!

I have a copy of this 45 which books at 40 quid in Manships guide. I just pop-siked it and the top sale was £334! Is this really in-demand for Northern/Popcorn collectors or is it more on a Tom Jones pop collectors item? Cheers, Chris.

All records finish on Sunday.....

Item is in E+ condition, some very very light wear, label is Minty. A Stunning copy of this all-time classic rarity. Serious offers only please. chris.soul@btinternet.com or PM me. Chris

Drew, I thought with it being a golfing weekend you would have your "Driver" with you! Sorry about that one! Chris

Just search under seller "midastouchsoul" Cheers, Chris

Mick, You might have to dig deep and play some of the tracks you bought last month instead! Chris

HI Stefan I`m really gutted for you, thats my worst nightmare. I cant really offer anything more than the great advice offered up by others on here. Just wanted you to know i sympathise with you and wish you all the best in getting them back. Just dont give up until you find them. Good luck. Chris and Helen.
