Guest Baz Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Hmmmmmmmm the plot thickens... sent the bloke a email last night about the Chico Lamarr saying, is there a SPS stamp in the run out groove as I am willing to bid up to £35000 the reply came back....... hi, i don't see that sps. The matrix code on the dead wax is C+F-1004-A C+F-1004-B All my 45's are 100% original unless stated! I have a 20 years collecting soul 45s This is a wonderful copy in mint- conditions. If you are really willing to offer £3,500 I can close the auction early and sell to you. Just let me know. Thanks Gerard Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Asking for flipside labels is not enough sometimes! I won a record off ebay from what turned out to be the infamous belgian swine Joseph Salamone, he sent scans of the flip and the correct matrix details, but it was still a 100% rip off attempt! I did not fall for it though and as a result the swine gave me my first and so far only negative feedback on ebay. He has been a member of this forum under many different names, so watch out! I suggested he send me the record first and then I send him the money, he did not like that suggestion at all. I wish someone would send him a lump of plastic explosive wrapped in nails and wire, and just blow him to shreds. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Which item did you ask the questions on so we can read them. QoF xx link It was the Joy Division EP Chrisieo. And the plot thickens. He either is legit or he's done his homework with this item - he certainly didn't go along with the 'mistake' about the recording studio. Here's how it went (I'm in blue) Can you hear the faint whistle of a skeedle from the studio tape on the last few seconds of the run out groove on this pressing? This is quite interesting. I never heard of this. Please tell me more and I will let you know. Is this faint whistle on both sides? However there's no doubt this is the first pressing as it comes from 1979 for sure! Gerard Hi Gerard, As far as I understand it's only on one (2nd?) side and it's caused by the tape reaching the coloured, none-recordable bit on the end. (Strawberry Studio in Stockport called them Skeedles). I believe that this was edited out on the later presses. Cheers, Cool story. Where have you heard it? Any source? I will give it a spin and I'll get back to you right after. Best Gerard I waited... and then: Hi I spun the EP over and over again but I could not hear any "tape skeedles". I'm afraid this is on the later reprints not on the original EP. This EP was not recorded by Strawberry Studio in Stockport but by Pennin Sound Studio in Oldham Regards Gerard Thoughts, anyone?
