Anyone know anything about these 2 sellers on Gemm. They often appear on searches as having a title but always 10 times the price of anyone else. Surley they can't sell any of these records, or is this a clever scam to get people to offer them rare items for sale?????

I actually emailed that archdd or whatever you call them when they had a cheapie for sale at about £100 odd over book price , but never got a reply, I think they must live in cloud cuckoo land, if you go into their site the prices are mind boggling!

I cannot believe anyone in their right mind would pay their asking price for ANY record Dave, just remembered the record was Grant Smith--Thinkin About You

It's a scam Dave, they don't have any records. All they have done is copy other peoples sales inventories and then advertise the same records for sale at a ludicrously high price. If anyone bites and places an order they buy the record from someone else then ship on at a vast profit, if they can't get a copy they say it's already sold. I can't believe Gemm still allow them on there but I suppose they will require some real proof that this is a con, and apart from asking to go round and see their non-existent collections, I can't see how they'll be able to prove anything.

Sadly, some people actually believe these are the correct prices records sell for, when they are just pie-in-the-sky nonsense!

ARCHDD has over a third of a million items for sale, but only has 23 feedbacks in over 5 years, so it can't be that lucrative, but I guess you only need a few people a year to bite and you've got a grand for doing nothing!

cheers and season's greetings

Hi Paul

Thanks for such an informative response. I did wonder if it was that sort of scam.

Have a great one and pass on mine and Malayka's best to that young Miles chappy.
