Pete S

Hows the mp3 player doing mate, I robbed myself there!

Hey Ana, nice of you to post this soul source link on the enelclub forum, so you're a secret spy eh

In otherwords, clutching at straws, I haven't sold him or whatsername a record for 9 years or so, I have neverhad an original copy of Freddie Chavez, so she probably tried selling me a bootleg as an original, thats all I can think of, and even then I wouldn't have been rude to her, I'm only rude to people on soul source who deserve it

Well if you don't know, how can you comment?

Pep used to play it both locally and at Wigan - late 76 early 77

It's either John or Tim Brown?

I also have some great Spanish customers Adam but the majority dislike you, no matter who you are, so long as you're from the UK. If you saw the venom dished out against the Brits on the Spanish soul forums it would make you wince. Not everyone feels the same obviously, but you would be shocked

I'd played it once Pete, otherwise it was new. Better to undergrade than over.

Quote from Edu today on Enelclub (yahoo group of 1500+ members) "If you know Pete Smith as you say, you'd certainly know that is a person prone to lose his temper quite easily. I had a problem with him -well, not really me, more my ex-girlfriend- about a certain copy of Freddie Chavez some years ago. Can't recall what was all about, but i remember that he was quite rude with her. I'm sorry to say that, but some UK dealers have this (at its best) patronising attitude towards European customers, as if we didn't know our ass from our elbow when we talk about northern soul collecting and as if we should have to accept all they say as gospel truth. Point is, you don't want to be treated like a three year old when spending your hard earned dosh, do you? Besides of that, i could name one big name dealer who's well dodgy (i.e selling reissues for originals, keeping your money for months and finally not sending what you asked for in the first place, having a simply unbearable snobbish attitude against any kind of criticism against his -very- useless staff, etc..., "

You, me and Malcolm

I have but I can't let you have the whole thing as I sold it for a lot of money and promised not to copy it!

Did it send everyone to sleep?

They are actually from Mexico Davie and they are under scrutiny from Ebay, they've bid up over 50 auctions using fake ID's, except nobody seems to know why they are doing it. There's a section about it on the Pama forum

You can get it on Stardust for a fiver Kev and it's a better recording

Ten quid

Ebay wasn't down, every now and then there's some of your details that you can't see like total bid amounts etc but the site is never down fully. Not the Uk one anyway.

OK cheers Marc, maybe I will, I just looked and I have £14 to last me until monday...

I'm f*cked if I'm knocking the postage off, you seen ebays fees lately?

Use a sniper than you daft c*nt

I think it was early 77, feb/march

I've got a no centre copy of The Intrigues - In A Moment on UK London currently in my Ebay shop for £6. Someone just sent me a message asking if I would accept £4.50 for it.

Don't like to be that pushy Marc to be honest!

Can't believe nobody wants a really nice Frankie Crocker original. Times really must be hard!

Both Peps and Ruby Red had this in stock as a new release, you're right Martyn, everyone in Wolverhampton had a copy of this

Cheers mate. Just looked odd in with all this reggae.
