think it's the latter. Just looked on ebay & he's bidding on 25 pages worth of records.. over 280 records...!?

I'll tell you who it is if you PM me

think it's the latter. Just looked on ebay & he's bidding on 25 pages worth of records.. over 280 records...!?

you dont think he's employed by ebay to bump up the prices do you

if so is'nt that illegal practice

comment not too be taken too seriousely ,dont want a law suit off the guy eh

would be just interesting to know if he's a fellow sourcer cos he does know his soul

think it's the latter. Just looked on ebay & he's bidding on 25 pages worth of records.. over 280 records...!?

Eh? How can you tell how many records he/she's bidding on? Whoever it is obviously knows their onions, 'cos they don't bid on rubbish

It's someone bidding on behalf of one of the country's top dealers. Work it out.

Go to your Ebay summary , on the left is 'search for items' ,go to search by bidder .

Who you got doing your dirty work for you then Pete?

Is that dealer a Soul Source member ?

 True. Thing is, if you 'shadow' him, 'cos of the dealer thing, they don't always go to top dollar on stuff, as a profit has to be made. So.... SNIPE HIM!!

I think it may be TB, but not 100% sure as he has another ID that he sells on...

Hi Nev

Funny that, Quite a few recently Including a couple currently I have seen activity from this ebayer.

All's fair and all that, but I was begining to wonder.

Seen a couple of current live ebay auctions that I thought that I had the good fortune to stumble upon

and there is already a bid from them.

Edited October 14, 200717 yr by 45cellar

its usually pete smith who outbids me

I'm Spartacus!!!!

Pete, he doesn't work for the dealer anymore.

Put it this way, he/she bids on the records as soon as they come on ebay so he is then obviously watching them in his ebay, if no one else bids he/she wins the records bloody cheap, it is nice too see that person bidding on a record you got your eye on as like a few others have said he/she has great taste.

I do it quite a bit too

They certainly bid on a lot of stuff!

That's true.

It's always amused me how he bids so early.

I've beat him on several things at the last drop of the hammer!

He's one of 3-4 multi-bidders that are well worth watching!

Hmmm, something makes me think Rivalino2 may be just about to change his/her user name as they've been rumbled

Why on earth didn't they use a snipe service that keeps your id secret until the last few seconds?

I have to say, I've seen that username on ebay but generally not noticed it much because they win very few records. If you just search items they won, it's a relatively small number... The users I get frustrated over are the ones that consistently outbid me. I was just shocked to see how many thing this person actually bid on when I searched, I've never seen such a "serious" ebayer not snipe.

Pete, he doesn't work for the dealer anymore.

No but it is who I think it is

To his credit he recently alerted me to a boot I was bidding on, me not knowing it was a boot (presume he was being genuine, no reason to think any other)

Now this is probably a stupid question but I'm tired (just back from Prestatyn) - why is everyone so secretive about their ebay ID's?.

Often wondered... there have been times I've been bidding against friends and if I'd known it was them I wouldn't have carried on.

I once bid and won a record only to find out it was toby, I was alerted to this when he rang me to tell me, half and hour after the auction had finished, I had just bought a record off him and would bring the record the following week when I saw him......................it was a nice cheapie and he wavered the £3 for the reocrd as well as the postage, hence his feedback was very good, what else can you leave a seller for a free record, would of saved him the ebay fees had I known he was selling it

Because some people track what you are bidding on and sometimes snipe you if they are after it as well. For instance you may have spotted something they haven't because it was mispelt or listed for the flip

Ah gotcha ! so you'd end up doing someone else's searching...?

Really?.. I'd never do that to anyone I knew. I wouldn't want people to think I was that much of a bitch!.

I thought they'd stopped this - in fact they did stop it a while back...and not just certain European countries

Great news, and if you need a hand behind the decks anytime, I could bring an extra 10/12 bods with me, plus all those that will come just to hear my tunes, of course! (or you could just tell me to f**k off like everyone else! )
