The Stardust issue has been a topic on Soul Source previously and I'll repeat now what I said back then : if anyone has evidence that Stardust is not a legitimate operation, then please present the evidence. Otherwise Stardust must be regarded as legitimate unless proved otherwise. It's as simple as that. And no, I'm not being paid by Stardust nor do I have any connection whatsoever with Stardust.

Slightly off topic but since John mentioned the Dungeon in Nottingham, there is an excellent website on the Dungeon Club which many here on Soul Source would be interested in viewing ... https://dungeonmods.wordpress.com/

Had this discussion on here numerous times over the years. Established and reputable sellers like carolinasoul don't engage in such dodgy practices simply because they don't need to ... and to do so would only damage their reputation and goodwill. They attract high bids from lots of serious bidders because they offer quality items on a regular basis and are extremely conservative when grading their records ... just like Jason Koenig (Funkyou) , paperstax and others. If you're finding the same bidder on multiple items listed by the one seller, it's either a lone wolf private collector bidding on 30 items to try to bag a couple at a reasonable price ... or more likely a serious UK soul dealer bidding and winning most of the high end items from the one seller and then putting them up for sale on his ... or her ... own website at an even greater premium; many on here know one individual in particular in the UK who operates that way (anyone care for some rare northern soul?) . But then, that's what business and the free market is all about. Finally, if you don't like what's going on, then the best advice is ... just don't bid. No one is forcing you to buy. Get out of the rat race and you'll probably feel so much better and your pocket will be so much fuller ...
