I'd take it for that price!

I'm starting to wonder if theres some kind of glitch in the ebay system

Was going to use it Mace but it said it was too busy at the moment!

Yeah I think so too because this is deliberate - when you leave negative, it comes up with a warning asking if you are sure you want to - this guy is doing it on purpose

I think maybe I'll have a look at the members forum see if they know anything...

He's obviously f*cking nuts.

Just noticed he did it to someone else as well, left good comments but negative! https://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...id=220162112404

Bloke has left me negativefeedback but it was meant to be positive - "excellent great transaction" or whatever but he's clicked negative (even though it comes up with a warning), anyway, does anyone know if there is an appeal against this?

Only G and you still want 200 for it? Whats that make a mint one, £800?

Les McCann - Sad little girl...what a track, overlooked cos it's an lp track I guess...

Here's a Hit Pack without the Bell distribution

Rubberneckin...but has anyone ever heard it played anywhere?

Well I have to say "I don't know" cos I haven't heard them, but the one on Pye might be a likely suspect!

Mick Smith still whinges about me taking 1200 quids worth of trades for my stocker of Vickie Baines

https://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZmayfair...1QQfsooZ1QQrdZ0? few decent bits and pieces there

I have bought it since issue 6 in 1979, though I got it free for 5 or 6 years when I used to write for them and do the price guide, but I buy it now becauseI'm interested in rare records of all genres not just soul, always have been, which is why I could paste the lot of you at pop quiz

You aren't out of touch Paul.

I'm quoting this directly from a feature on the Beatin Rhythm record shop in Manchester, published in this months Record Collector magazine.. "In terms of high ticket items, owner Martin Koppell sold his copy of Frank Wilsons Do I Love you to jazz guitarist Kenny Burrell for £15,000"

Could they give hima ring and tell him to check his PM's and Ebay messages please, seriously, would be very grateful, cheers

Yeah but have you heard it? Irish version of The Statue...hmm

I sent him one of the Coral 45's...it got lost en route to the USA, only time it's ever happened. Sods law..

Have to disagree here. I've had the red/white Wild Deuce a dozen times. I;ve had the blue one once or twice. Of course what you really want is the UK Stateside issue (or demo). The one on Out Of The Past is another record altogether, His Love Is Amazing. I had a bit of correspondence with Sharon a few years back, sent me a photo, she's a white lady.
