Pete S Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 He`s too honest by half,that Pete S. Thing is, I listed it, someone asked for it, I said he could have it, 5 minutes later someone tells me it's worth 3 times as much as I sold it for - I can't go back to the guy I promised it to and say sorry, the records broken or some other sh*t excuse I've had sellers say to me. Bad karma! My mistake, my loss. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulsider Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 So how much did the Jades go for please? ( Pete - you usually leave your prices up even when sold. I kinda use you as a fair benchmark. Change of policy?) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
NUFCSOUL Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 No Pete - this is total transparent honesty and I don't mean to affect your sales thread. I was stiffed by a dealer on here a couple of weeks back. Wanted an offer so gave him one - not good enough so accepted his! Paid immediately as I usually do and then the arse refunds me next day with a - ''got a better price' story. You can't always be right over a record price or condition for some folk, but proper people on our scene like you are a gem to deal with (send me the fiver later!!!) so credit where it's due as I'm still fuming over my experience.

Phil I never got an email from you, sorry, I'd have replied immediately - I did sell it within about 15 minutes of the list going out though, and it didn't go on SS for an hour after it went to my mailing list Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dylan Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 40 quid is a great price. I think the days of this demanding 300 are long gone though Nev. I'd probably try it at 100 - 125 now if I picked one up to sell. I sold one for not much mroe than that on here when demand was high. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I don't Ollie, sorry, but if you see anything, don't email, ring! The phone always takes preference over email because if it rings, I have to answer it and the emails mount up when I'm on the phone.
