Tommy Tate - I'm Taking On Pain/Are You From Heaven
Okeh 4-7242, WLP, NM-, $425
Amazing soul in outstanding condition. Some extremely faint marks from taking the record in and out of the sleeve. The record is pressed on vinyl too, not styrene. And it comes with company sleeve. Listen to the soundclip: https://media.putfile.com/Tommy-Tate---Taking-On-Pain
The Natural Four - Hanging On To A Lie b/w Twelve Months Of The Year
Boola-Boola 1001, VG-, WOL, Offers
Super-rare and coveted local Oakland 45 that unfortunately is pretty banged up. Both sides play through with varying degrees of background noise. No skips. If you're still interested then listen to the soundclips (which have both songs in their entirety) and make me an offer. I'll probably wait a few days to collect offers so bear with me.
Nu-Sound Express Ltd. - One More Time Y'all b/w A Rose For The Lady
Silver Dollar 156 WLP, NM, $15
Freddie Hughes - I Just Found Out/I've Got My Own Mind
Janus 196, NM-, slight warp NAP, $30
Highly spoken of crossover soul that shouldn't last long at this price. Hop to it.
Boogaloo Joe Jones - Sweetback LP on Joka
Here's a nice copy of this elusive private-press jazz-funk album. The cover is VG+ with the typical ring wear for this title and the disc is NM- with a couple faint sleeve marks that don't affect play. The record plays NM. My asking price is $175.
Grading: I grade conservatively and base my evaluation on the look AND sound of the record. I grade on a scale of NM, VG++, VG+, VG, VG- (I will rarely list a record less than VG unless its scarcity warrants it).
Shipping: First class shipping within the U.S. is $3, including delivery confirmation. Insurance is $1.30 (for up to $50 worth of coverage - add an extra dollar per $50 of coverage). International shipping is $6 for regular airmail to Europe, Asia and Australia (Please note, the more expensive records will ship with mandatory insurance within the U.S. and by Global Express Mail for overseas. Please let me know if you have any questions.) Other locations, please contact for a quote. As for multiple item purchases, shipping is free for the second 45 and $1 more per 45 (bulk purchases will ship at cost). I generally go to the post office 2-3 times a week to ship out packages, so you should get your record quickly! All records are packed using standard 45 mailers and cardboard fillers.
Payment: I accept Paypal, money orders, and cash sent registered.
Holds: Records are on a strict first come, first serve basis. I will hold records for up to two days so that you can finalize payment arrangements.

Reputation: Please check my ebay feedback under the user ID "kidinquisitive" (and feel free to add-on 45s from my ebay store to your order). 964 positive feedbacks (and counting) and zero negatives.
