A smaller list this month due to time restrictions but... I'll be putting out some heavy lists over the summer so keep your eyes peeled as there might be less competition and more good stuff for yourself ;)
All records are strictly graded and come with photos and soundfiles. If you have questions about something don't hesitate to ask. If you can't get enough of these, I've got some more in stock in my store:https://stores.ebay.com/Diggin-Dave-45sMost soundfiles in my ebay shop are defunct but I'm in the process of replacing with working ones.
SHIPPING is £5 to anywhere in the world, for any number of records from the list. Int'l signed for shipping is £10.

Merger – You pick me up / I wanna be your man – MGR
In-demand Ohio modern soul on this tiny private label. No pic sleeve but a nice clean copy.
Visual Grade: VG+
£200
Westpoint – Come and get the love / High steppin – Hitmaker 1027
This is really something special right here. High Steppin is a nice obscure mid-80s boogie tune but the flip is an exceptional 6 minute slow jam that still blows me away although I've listened to it about a 100 times. I managed to pick a very limited number of copies of the artist so copies are mint and once these are gone you'll probably never see a copy again.
Visual Grade: M-
£150
The Desidero's – Flat foot Charlie / I pledge my love – Renee 1040
Obscure but quality early sixties soul outta Chicago that's extremely hard to pick up in this condition.
Visual Grade: M-
£120
Billy – your own words to it / You move me – Sniff 395
Awesome Cali funk 45 that has stayed very much under the radar in spite of its inclusion in the Legendary Deep Funk comp. Has a crack near th edge but plays very well as you can hear.
Visual Grade: VG with a 3/4" crack
£100
