No mate you need say nothing more, still you made a profit....lol say's the man who sold Eric Mercury for £95.00 at Stafford......I'll get me coat. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

PM sent mate. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

About £40.00 for a stock copy maybe so £75.00 sounds about right there Chalky, fantastic tune. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Cheers Ian for reminding me.......oh the pain...lol some include - Soul Shakers - Teri De, Eric Mercury - Sac, Gene Toones - Simco Stock/Issue, Imperial C's - Phil La Of Soul, Chuck Holiday - Gloria but I think this was stolen out of my flat when I lived in North Wales?, Lou Pride - Your Love Is Fading - Suemi, Vondells - Airtown, Jesse Davis - Era, Twans - Dade, first copy of Johnny Rodgers - Amon but got that back, first copy of Little Nicky Soul - Shee again replaced that, and as Eddie said many many others, best thing to do is to forget about them as otherwise it drives you mental, if we knew then what we know now OMG millionaires all of us...lol On a serious note I've let go of loads of great records in recent years with no regrets moved them on got other records so it works well stuff like Just Brothers - Garrison, Arin Demain - Blue Star, Gerri Hall - Hot Line, Donna King - Hot Line, Ellusions - Lamon, Rufus Wood - Espanola, Nat Hall - Loop, numerous oldies like Christine Cooper - Parkway, Johnny Caswell - Decca, Herbert Hunter - Spar Demo etc. etc. have all been and gone during my thirty plus years on the scene and the funny thing is I do not miss certain records have no desire to get them back again, forgotton some of the things I have had like us all and even as I write this titles keep popping up in my head...now I'm gonna find myself a nice tall building to jump off...lol one last thing despite all the records that have 'Slipped Through My Fingers' bugger two Tower Demo's of that has too...lol I can honestly say that I'm enjoying collecting records now more than I ever have in the past in terms of buying new bits and bobs, replacing the odd few and enjoying what I still have, one final note through all my collecting/DJ'ing career there are certain records which will never leave me still have Bobby Kline, Billy Prophet - Demo, Dena Barnes, Cashmeres - Hem, Four Tracks - Mandingo, Troy Dodds - El Camino, Ascots all three on Mir - A - Don, Jimmy Burns - Erica, Poets - Symbol Demo etc. etc. etc. some records you can learn to live without others there is far too much emotional attatchment to them, love, passion and the desire to own often something very few others can, finally the beauty is in a weird and wonderful way when a record goes to someone else if they get that same buzz and feeling ain't it worth sharing?....you bet it is...God after that I think I need to go and play a few tunes not that I've got many left you understand.....lol and some, Volumes, Falcons, Darrow Fletcher's and few other bits and bobs. Regards - Mark Bicknell. Where's that tall building just thought of some more - Betty Wilson - Dayco, Ray Pollard - Shrine, Sandi Sheldon - Demo (Final edit before I go totally insane, Hayes Cotton, Purple Mundi, Reggie Alexander, Martells, John Leach help!!!!!) oh shit again cheers Ian for making our day so grim now....lol

Yes Pete exactly what I thought sounds like a complete first class self abuser. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Harry, I trust your reply ended with the word 'off'.....lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I know you did....lol and to think I sold the first copy I had way back for twenty five quid, still a good record though Dave and worth what I paid you for it and some even if you did'nt like it...lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Hi Ray, I've sent you an Email as I can help you out here maybe, Little Nicky Soul is on Shee same label as The Four Arts dog rare mate around a Grand I would say, happy hunting. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I think once feedback is left it stay's on your account unless you both agree to remove it or something like that, someone posted negative feedback on me a bit back suggesting that I did not send the record which I did and I had proof on the Post Office website that the record had been delivered and signed for by the person, someone trying it on a real weirdo actually and I went to task with Ebay on this and get the negative feedback reversed and taken off and they did remove it after a bit of a battle, I think when you are unhappy with a transaction that you should be able to say so, however feedback is hopeless because if you leave negative feedback then the other person buyer/seller does exactly the same so really it serves no constructive purpose, I think the rules and conditions of Ebay should be revised, bugger me we pay enough in listing/selling/Pay Pal fees, perhaps returned items poor condition records etc. should be fully refundable including the postage then perhaps people will think twice before they list and offer for sale poor condition records. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

A real pisser when stuff like this happens and often there is nothing you can do about it apart from negative feedback then you get the same so it sucks, some records should not even be offered up for sale in the first place, I'm sure some sellers on Ebay don't even play through the records to check for any problems, I love the old chestnut good collection filler or will be ok for DJ'ing with which basically means it's fcuked, me I send them back for a refund but as you say you still end up out of pocket on the postage, still we have all had this happen and not just from the States, hope you can resolve this Paul. Regards - Mark Bicknell.
