I have 2 of these packs (both identical)- the vast majority of the records included are unplayed - a few will be lightly scuffed but nothing worse than VG+. One or two may have the odd sticker or mark or the odd bit of writing on. Many will have drill holes. All are USA originals. The Marvin Gaye Tamla 45s are all on original globes where appropriate (most of these are listed for £10 - £25 each elsewhere). Great collection builder with a lot of very solid 60's tunes (and a few 70s). Some are in original sleeves, some are not. Price is £100 per pack plus £5 P&P (UK). Europe P&P £10.

I've got a black issue - didn't think think they were particularly unusual (unlike KTMH) but I may be wrong! Love 'Never set me free', absolutely sublime

sold my multi coloured on ebay last year and got £430 for it IIRC so about right I'd say (give or take - due to exchange rate collapse - more take than give..)....

I've got a copy of Billy Kennedy on Thelma and it looks absolutely battered to death - by record collector standards I'd have to probably call it G- or POOR - but it really is fine for DJing because it sounds fine though big speakers (though it also sounds fine through little ones as well!) - I think there are two issues - records that SOUND knackered (whether they look knackered or not) and records that look knackered but defy modern science by playing well despite their appearance... I agree with some of the comments though, I hate to hear people playing crackly records at a do unless mega rare - I've never had a problem buying lesser (visual) condition records for home or deck use - but only as long as they SOUND great (irrespective of how they look) - I think the 'fine for DJing' is properly used to describe something that sounds a lot better than it looks - not something that you can probably "get away with" at a do... but is generally shagged - that's how I apply it anyway

I've got Carl's old copy of the Sandpipers on Giant (bought back when it was still relatively hard to find ) - has his name carved in the run out - don't recall that being pointed out when I bought it .... but given that it's only VG/VG+ish (but plays mint), it sort of adds character

little bumpity bump - I've seen a fair few of these listed for quite a bit more recently, can't believe no takers? Will consider sensible offers, and even trades for similar value records.

flip side of Nita Rossi (every little day now) is a brilliant slice of bubbly poppy soul, even has a hammond break! I got it on Hickory....

All set sale - postage extra. Paypal accepted but add 4%. Will consider trades for RARE latin soul 45s (see my post below) but cash preferred. Some bargains - especially if you are after great sounding copies for DJ use that look a little scruffy.

little bump - happy to consider trades on these - some wants listed above but other good quality dancers also considered.

I've removed all the sold items and added new ones in their places plus some more at the end - thanks to everyone who has bought so far

really like it, and 'Bad girl' as well also on King

After the following: Jimmy Conwell - Cigarette ashes (Mirwood) Tito Puente - Hit the bongo (Tico) (45 only - not the LP) Manny Corchado - Pow Wow (Decca) all must play mint-ish, and if possible, look mint-ish (but clean playing scruffy looking copies considered if priced accordingly )

Johnny Robinson finally reserved, still lots of great tunes here and I swear the prices are decent?????

hardly, you PM'd me about making an offer - and I'm about to reply.....

a couple more happy smiling buyers - some further reductions.
