Benji

thanks for your replies. As said bit of dilemma for me. On one hand good communication and full refund, on the other hand frequently poor grading

Bought a record on Ebay which turned out to be in much worse condition than advertisted. Returned record and got full refund incl. return postage. Now, do I leave positive feedback or neutral? I'm pretty indecisive what to do. I mean, seller acted very reasonable. On the other hand DSR show he's a bad record grader so should I warn other potential buyers by leaving a neg? Any opinions? NB: didn't think I'd ever use Soul Source as an agony aunt.

Now also available as set sale. See

Wanted: Little Ritchie - One bo dillion years - SS7 SORTED Issue or demo, must play fine. No reissue! Willing to pay up to 80 quid plus postage. Thanks!

Bump, few prices adjusted.

IMO not even Soul Source is a very good place to sell Northern 45s anymore. Unless they fit in the categories stated in my previous post. I don't know what professional dealers may say, but I think it's getting harder and harder to shift stuff. Maybe it's better to sell on Facebook? I don't know, I'm not on FB.

If it's not a Top 500 oldie, a classic rarity or current in demander, nobody's interested in it.

Damn right. Ebay is drowning in BINs. Right now german Ebay black music vinyl section (i.e. Soul, Funk, Hip-Hop, etc) has 60.000+ items auction and BIN. Click auction only and you get less than 2.500 hits.

Christian, have pm'd you. I have a spare @50 quid plus postage.

Dave, wasn't that a bogus auction?
