Just 24 hours to go................

I've been buying and selling on Ebay on and off for I guess about 15 years and have always worked on 2 principles. When I sell I always accept returns no matter what, don't need a reason, just send it back for a full refund. When I buy I always check the fine print and item description that way there are no surprises when item arrives and if it says record has a edge crack or the B side is shagged out and doesn't play well then I know it. Bought this the other day, unfortunately I went into hospital for 2 1/2 weeks the day the record arrived so it was nearly 3 weeks before I opened package. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XFKUHUO3Dw&feature=youtu.be As you can see thing doesn't play, although seller did say there was something with the run in but it did not affect play, which it quite clearly does. I contacted the seller who got all shirty and accused me of damaging it and besides I was too late he only gave a 14 day return. So when I opened a return case he closed immediately with a refusal. I didn't leave it at that I spent about 2 hours talking to Ebay and explaining everything, I always keep every communication between seller and buyer, the seller had written some pretty strange and daft things including one that said he was taking legal action, whatever that means. Anyway Ebay came out in my favour which I thought was the fairest thing. It really does look like the seller does have some protection.

Pretty talented bunch of blokes, worldwide hits weeks after starting the label and issuing the records.

Ending tomorrow, here's some more.................

Frank Beverly, Gamble, Huff, Renzetti & Bobby Martin (not forgetting Billy Jackson) - boy!! doesn't get much better the Philadelphia mob

Has anybody any experience with vinyl cleaning fluid ? Does it clean the record and/or do anything else/more ? I've seen sellers use them at record fairs but nowhere else.

2 days to go....................some more stuff..............

Only noticed this the other day, incorrect title on the Italian, which is the rarer ?

Yes that's right, DC used to own them.

Thinning out all my books and papers before moving next month and found this. Kendra is of course Kendra Spotswood AKA Sandi Sheldon.

Even more stuff..................

Some more to be sold...............

Some more labels..................

It's the sign of the times........................

Even more...............

Something out of the studio I suspect - the original with the piano intro is the one that's played at venues.

"Rip off" doesn't really come into to it. It's more a question of some people willing to pay a lot more money than say 2/3 years ago. No one forces them to buy at these high prices and you wonder if it will all end in tears ?

Triple bonkers................

What he said.....................

That's what happened to Linda Lloyd a few years back a £35 - 40 sound then Ian Levine mentioned it a few time, then it shot up to £150.00 +

It's a pain in the arse...............................

About £40 - 50

Thought that there were many new Pop-Up DJS buying all the well known stuff and playing it, after all the rooms are dark and the punters are dancing so who's going to see if it's an original or not ?
