Carl Willingham recently won a non-exsistant record where the guy lifted the scan. Carl sussed it and asked for the deadwax info..unable to supply of coarse.. always a wise move.. before payment... if you're suspicious.
March 11, 200619 yr Author Yep you're spot on John and if you hadn't brought out the bootleg books there would be even more people losing out... I know you put your site address across your scans and I generally do the same with the more expensive 45's that I sell on ebay - its not a failproof system of course but it does make it harder for the fraudsters who use these scans :angry: Its a pity more people don't 'mark' the scan with something. If it looks too good to be true it probably is - I know 'cos I've been caught out before but fortunately didn't lose out financially. Cheers Mike B

Check this: https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=26066 Its a bit late at night for me to be playing poirot but the seller of this that Lars has flagged up 'dick baker' is the person who is bidding on the groovettes... I tried to contact one of the bidders to warn them but ebay will only let you contact one person a day if you are not buying or selling with them and I'd exceeded my limit of one Mike B Edited March 12, 200619 yr by Mike B

He has the same 2 bidders (both new members) bidding against each other, so a bit of shill bidding going on me thinks.... Definately buyer beware!
