this last 3 months i have been bidding on various copies of Barbara Randolph..i,ve got a feeling each time on different labels, soul, motown, tamala motown and in desperation even on a dutch tamla motown in orange. then bugger me i keep losing always in the last minute and by one bid though ive been the only bidder for a week or so. whats going on? rant over..

a) you need to snipe so your bid goes in at the last second. There is a free sniper, gixen.com

b) you need to bid higher

I think most use some sort of snipe now judging by the auctions I have either lost or watched, always a last second bid that wins.

Love it.

put a real big bid in it,ll beat the snipe......however you don,t wanna get it for £995.95p

I've said all along, everyone should use a snipe, be allowed to enter one bid, as in "what you are prepared to pay" and everyone will be the better for it You might lose a few but prices would be a little more realistic.

Place a free ad on SS in the Wants section, best know how much you want to pay. Looking for a UK or US copy (or Dutch) ?

There's 3 on UK Ebay right now, 2 x UK & 1 US.

In my experience, of it's over a tenner, best to buy from a dealer who knows his stuff. better risking the wayward grading of some Ebay sellers or catching a boot. Often the price is cheaper than you think.
