    Yes. Loads of new soul/house/(any genre really) indie releases only gets released as MP3s. Or preferably as high quality WAV or FLAC.
  2. If you don't want to see the buy-it-now items, just click "Auctions only" at the top of the search page. I just did a search for "northern soul" in the records catagory on ebay.co.uk and then clicked "Auctions only"... and lo and behold, 7000 items out of 10000 disappeared!
  3. It was pressed several times at the time of release because it sold well locally. That's also most likely the reason why Wand picked it up for distribution, but I guess it was a case of "too little too late" and it didn't take off nationally. According to Manship: DESPENZA BLOCK LOGO: £600 DESPENZA SCRIPT LOGO: £750 WAND: £2000 He doesn't mention the third Despenza label variation though.
  4. Just 3-4 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-)
  5. The mis-pressed copies where "How Can One Man Live" plays "Hung Up On Your Love" were made in the early or mid 1990s. They are definitely not from the 70s. I'm on about the ones that looks like this:
  6. It's a 70s euro disco classic, isn't it? Clip on YouTube of Su Kramer: Here's Camouflage's version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSQmAGhRalM

    It wasn't issued as a 45 as far as I know. Can be found on this LP though: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260455645508 https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310153992799 https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180401956735
  8. There's now about 2 days left on these auctions.
  9. Check out post #11 here for scans of the originals vs. bootlegs:
  10. Don't know if you're bothered about which country it is pressed in, but have you had a look at eBay? There are some buy-it-now copies up there right now: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140279925243 https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360172015688
  11. It's unissued and acetate (mastertape?) only. Don't know how many original acetates there are out there, but I think it's just one copy. Or perhaps it was only on mastertape? It was bootlegged on a white label 45 a bunch of years ago.

  13. The reason I'm asking is because I have a copy of this on Wirl that I've had for quite a while. I've never put much thought into this LP and it's just been sitting here, but as I was preparing to put it on eBay I started to do some research and found out that both a UK Wirl and UK Doctor Bird pressing is supposed to exist. Does anyone know for sure? Come to think of it... perhaps the WIRL issue is from somewhere else in the West Indies? But the machine stamped matrix markings "looks UK". In any case, here is my WIRL copy, housed in a heavy carboard (jamaican?) BMN sleeve with "paste-over" front:
  14. According to some discographies I've seen, the "Sensational Maytals" LP was issued in 1965 by both WIRL and DOCTOR BIRD in the UK. As Wirl DBL 1003 and Doctor Bird BLM 5003. Is that correct? And if so, which came first? Thanks in advance.

    Someone seems to have scooped up all his copies (not me, by the way!). Or perhaps Don has seen this thread...
  16. Another give-away is that the bootleg has got DISC JOCKEY and NOT FOR SALE on the label. The original issues doesn't. Perhaps it was booted from the elusive white demo copy and then printed on yellow paper?
  17. Only 2-3 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-)
  18. There's now about 1 day left on these auctions.
  19. Here's their news announcement about this: https://pages.ebay.co.uk/sell/sellerupdate/freeshipping.html Might be something in there that answers it.
  20. They will only charge the insertion fee if the item doesn't sell. And that is only £0.35 for a £50000 item with a £75000 buy it now, so not much of a risk. This only applies to ebay.co.uk.
  21. OK, that's strange! Works alright for me. Perhaps you have to make the changes on both the .co.uk and .com sites? I don't know. I'm Sebastian by the way, not Benji.
  22. I wonder what their stance will be if you claim that it is borrowed but very valuable goods that has been sent back to you? I mean, if there isn't a receipt in the package, how can customs be certain that the item has actually been purchased? It might be a gift from someone despite being sent with a $2500 insurance! Or indeed a friend sending back a valuable record that they have borrowed. Oh well!
  23. This is by no means the perfect way to block fake bidders, as it also might block genuine bidders that have just started out on eBay, but the following has helped me to get rid of most of the fake bids for my reggae items on eBay: In your "My eBay" go to the Account tab. Then click Site preferences in the left column. Scroll down to and click on Buyer requirements. Then click Edit. Then make these (or similar) adjustments under Block buyers who: Have received 2 Unpaid Item strike(s) within 1 Month(s). Have 1 Policy Violation report(s) within 1 Month(s). Have a feedback score of -1 or lower Are currently winning or have bought 1 of my items in the last 10 days (only apply this block to buyers who have a feedback score of 1 or lower) Good luck!
