Dean Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 On the plus side regarding cost, shipping's cheap. Although if I'd paid $6K (guess) for it I may want signed for. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Liamgp Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 interesting q and a He didn't say he would declare the full value on the customs form and he didn't say he wouldn't. A straighter answer might be required if I was bidding to be honest.

It often is - it's when they leak out to the public and they are frightened they may get in trouble if they sell it so you often find not for sale rubbed out Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 As opposed to the sort of trouble you might get into for selling bootlegs. Nothing to do with that though is it, if you were asking why the real reason not for sale is crossed out, it's cos of the reason I gave. Nobody on ebay cares about getting into trouble for selling bootlegs. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulhawk Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 He didn't say he would declare the full value on the customs form and he didn't say he wouldn't. A straighter answer might be required if I was bidding to be honest. sometimes you need to read between the lines. I think an outright declaration from the seller that they will write $10 on the customs form is something that ebay frowns upon( the gov't as well, I'd guess ) buyers can actually get in trouble( through ebay at least) for asking for a low declaration Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Britmusicsoulfan Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 If you're going to shell out $6-$8K for a record, if you can nab a cheap flight to the States, you might be better to do that? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulman Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Am I missing something here or just having a moment. Original post is about a Larry Clinton in the States and then in comes a used and abused with marker on the label from Derby UK. Which one are we on about now?

Guest Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) buyers can actually get in trouble( through ebay at least) for asking for a low declaration That's the trouble with Ebay these days. They are an auction site, why are they involved with policing shipping? I pay the seller for shipping, I can't see what it has to do with Ebay.

Liamgp Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 It's in good nick, it's rare as hell and it's a truly great piece of music. Still wake up screaming when I think of the one I saw for £120 in 1984, but that was a fortune then. The boot went for £57 BTW, which is possibly more surprising then 6K for an original! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LARRY-CLINTON-SHES-WANTED-/181423638131?pt=UK_Records&hash=item2a3db10673 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ted Massey Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I may have said this before but I will bore u with it again I bought. Minter of Ian Clarke in 1988 for 160£ when I got it it had a warp not affecting play I called him to have a moan he said send it back will send u another he had 3 copies. Sold it to Pottsy in 1997 for £1200.. Bought a minter a couple of years ago in trades for around £2500 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
NUFCSOUL Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Plenty out there it seems when you read the threads but just not for sale.As a buyer not a seller I see Manships 2k value is happily ignored in this instance and buyers just go crazyfor it due to rarity.I still think looking at averages since 2008 that it's a 2.5k to 3k record but then as a potential buyer I would !!!The 3.8k end price on this latest one suggests a HUGE premium for the great condition it was in.I've just got to find one now as a drive in the UK is more appealing than risking USPS on that sort of value -I wouldn't be able to sleep till it got here !! 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Quinvy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 But it's like a lot of these records, they aren't that rare in actual numbers, it's the fact they are brilliant pieces of music and everyone wants to own them. Demand makes it rare to the market, and condition gets the premium price. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chris L Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 That's the trouble with Ebay these days. They are an auction site, why are they involved with policing shipping? I pay the seller for shipping, I can't see what it has to do with Ebay. They see it as an extra source of revenue. I always try and talk seller out of using it, they are obliged to declare the value sold. That would mean import duty & VAT making the purchase even dearer.
