Wanted - Silhouettes
I did go back and bid up to £769.00, but obvioulsy lost. You may as well sell me your minter, and we'll call it VG+? Cos it soon will be once I get hold of it. I bought a beautiful Saxie Russell W/D off JM's last week. It now has a big scuff across it as After iIplayed it I didn't put it back in its sleeve and the kids knocked it on the floor I'm hopeless at looking after records. the amount of nice tunes that I've scratched and broken over the years doesn't bear thinking about.

Wanted - Silhouettes
Well I am the eternal optimist. Anyway It doesn't have to be in tip-top condition. Even if it was, it wouldn't be for lomg after i got hold of it as i treat my records like crap anyway. Phil

Import Duty
I've recently started to try and re-purchase all the records that i sold some years ago. This usually involves paying people in the US lots of $. And then when the records finally hits these shores, paying a load of import duty & VAT etc. Does anyone know if there is any "legitimate" way of paying less VAT & duty? These charges are sometimes crippling (£300.00 in the last week alone) Cheers Phil

Annabellas Bradford
Annabella's was great. I learnt so much about the tunes there as a snotty nosed kid.

A Question Of Earnings
I agree with a lot of what's been already said. As for me personally, i just have always bought what I liked (if I could afford it) and a lot of what I didn't particularly like sometimes, if I thought that I could sell it/ trade it on. I foresook "normal" holidays for most of the 80's and 90's, instead going to the US whenever I could to search out vinyl. That meant that I could always get hold of records at relatively, and sometimes ludicrously, cheap prices. I could then sell these on at the prevailing price at the time to buy the sounds I couldn't find in the US. That said, I have spent far too much money on records in my time. And now I've got the bug again Phil

Berry Gordys Cousin Sings Record
I think I may be related. I've met quite a few Dick's when I've visted Detroit over the years, and one of the backroom boys at Motown told me that Berry "was a real Dick!" Coincidence? I think not. Now then. Where's me royalties? Phil Dick
