November 27, 200915 yr if a beat up copy like this sold for this stupid amount then the next decent copy to turn up the sellers gonna want triple the amount this went for when are us uk soulies gonna learn were being ripped off big time in my opinion with the amount of so called rare items thats turned up this year alone the people stateside are taken us for a ride big time no offence to our stateside soulie friends but what was once rare seems to be turning up in numbers How can they be taking us for a ride when they auction something? If two or more idiots want to pay through the nose for something then surely that's up to them, and no fault of the seller?
November 27, 200915 yr How can they be taking us for a ride when they auction something? If two or more idiots want to pay through the nose for something then surely that's up to them, and no fault of the seller? i agree, the record was listed accurately and in a detailed manner by an honest seller, who's taking who for a ride?
November 27, 200915 yr i agree, the record was listed accurately and in a detailed manner by an honest seller, who's taking who for a ride? Too true Bob same with the Jessie James 45 Very well described ...they could have easily said vg or vg- and give a grade breakdown at foot of page like a lot do. The guy even put a soundfile up for the four andantes....Jeez what more could he do ?? Some people must just wanna own the records at whatever cost .... Both are rare 45s for sure ....and Bob should know ,he got the last FA and at a good price too

Both are rare 45s for sure ....and Bob should know ,he got the last FA and at a good price too i don't have a four andantes still, you're thinking of someone else. i saw that one that was just on ebay, i had a $500 snipe and I thought that was over the top in that condition, look what happened with that.
November 27, 200915 yr i don't have a four andantes still, you're thinking of someone else. i saw that one that was just on ebay, i had a $500 snipe and I thought that was over the top in that condition, look what happened with that. Sorry Bob ..i remember the ebay copy at around $800+ and seem to recall on here that you were the lucky buyer ...must have been speculation Never mind .....when i get sick of my minter
November 27, 200915 yr four andantes is usually vg+ at best when they do turn up. not seen many minters.
November 27, 200915 yr Sorry Bob ..i remember the ebay copy at around $800+ and seem to recall on here that you were the lucky buyer ...must have been speculation Never mind .....when i get sick of my minter that last, much cleaner one, went for $1000, I didn't even bid
November 28, 200915 yr i came 2nd on the jessie james and lost to a snipe ( grrrrr) in the last seconds. i never have any money to spend and i thought that was the copy for me as i could never afford a grand for a minter but for once im a bit flusher than usual lol. folks should remember that not all soulies are millionaires in fact most of us are far from it. I nearly swopped my fascinators on bombay for a mint jessie once but was talked out of it. but having looked at that JJ the other nite and listened to the soundclip i thought i would bid what i thought it was worth and i only just missed it dave

Im sure my old pal Shep had a much better copy on here last yr for a lot less money ? I cursed that record when it was on ebay the other night ,i was secretly bidding on his much better item (which i won ) but the jessie james drew attention to the relative unknown i was watching . Then again maybe it distracted attention who cares ...it's now mine
November 28, 200915 yr Just traced Sheps old copy of Jessie James in back sales JESSE JAMES / ARE YOU GONNA LEAVE ME / SHIRLEY / dont know how to grade this so going to give a description instaed (has crack,which in certain position does nap, some hiss during run in, has cellotape on reverse to secure in postion, name on label, money back if you cant get it to play well enough) £100****SOLD***** Not the best copy but that's the kind of money you pay for records in this condition
