Here's a good one................................

Hi again, Chris
The postage listed is an eBay default postage price based on your home country. And it doesn't take into account the packing material, wrapping and getting the package to the post office. Often times the postage is more than what is listed on eBay. (I had to learn the hard way). That's why I ask that you wait for my invoice. 

But, I understand and sympathize with those who win and live outside the US. I try to keep my item prices low to make up for the heavy postage tab. 
If, however, you feel the postage is too much I won't be upset and will gladly refund your payment. 
I'll get back to you later today. 
Thanks again, 
Rick

What a loser.........................

Another unusual one from Discogs.

Dunno if it's a genuine acetate or a mail order type thing, however I'll be amazed if it's worth the asking price.

Rusty Draper is a US old school country artist.

Bud Harper, Rusty Draper ‎– Mr Soul / Love Don't Grow On Trees


Label : The Music Centre, Wembley ‎

Format:

Acetate, 7", 45 RPM

£4,427.64 - why 64p ?? postage ?

Is it me. or is the postage charge for this more than the record is worth?

Where do these clowns come from?  Has Boris Johnson started selling records in anticipation of needing to find a new career in the near future?

Anyone who would buy that pile of horseshite at any price want`s birching!!

The seller lists it as rare '60's.  It would have been extremely rare in the sixties unless somebody travelled back in time from the seventies with a few copies.

He's saying next day delivery so I guess he means special delivery which would be the £8

Apologies if I have this all wrong but...

What appears to be a Flirtations 70's boot with a stick on label has just sold for £250.

Here's the link to the eBay sale and also the popsike link to when it was sold last year for £53 (still too much for a boot)

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NORTHERN-SOUL-FLIRTATIONS-STRONGER-THAN-HER-LOVE-45RPM-/253056515524?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=CAds3JbQzmxH%2F9VJDSrU9ZILWbI%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

 

https://www.popsike.com/THE-FLIRTATIONS-STRONGER-SETTLE-DOWN-FESTIVAL-DJ-COPY/201547031665.html

 

In fairness to the seller, it wasn't described as original and when I asked, they said it could be a 70's boot.

Has it been sprayed with tincture of old vinyl so that it smells authentic? That has to be the defining touch, erm, doesn't it?

Suspect the sale was cancelled. Item resurfaced shortly afterwards but described more accurately.

This a 70s boot, no "severe" dip, there is a dip though.

Just like this one from Ebay.

You can also tell by the print of the label, obviously done on 21st century equipment.

Yes but they are using 'real' instruments!!!!!!!!

WTF does that mean? are there some other instruments that aren't 'real'? Maybe virtual instruments ?
