Ditto. Picked two copies up for 10p each on one of my regular trips around the 2nd hand record shops of Liverpool during the early to mid 70s.

Losing 45`s In The Post
What a load of bollocks. How can a company like Royal Mail advertise a service called 'International Signedfor' then deny all responsibility after it leaves our shores. They should be done under the trades description act. They should honour what they are selling and if anything goes wrong, pay up, then argue their case with the overseas postal service to claim back their losses, not slope shoulder the problem onto us. It should be a door to door service, NOT a door to shore service.

I agree.

Yes, I've experienced that once or twice. But on the whole, doesn't work that well here in Europe. Some of the countries here have woeful tracking systems, if any at all.

Yeah, but you live in Germany. Take it from me, you wouldn't get away with it here in the UK!!!

Yeah, this always pisses me off. Why the hell do they insist on putting the value of the contents of the package on the outside for all to see. It's like a big advert telling everybody, HEY, LOOK AT ME, MY CONTENTS ARE WORTH £XXX AMOUNT OF MONEY, WHY DON'T YOU STEAL ME!!!

But Sebastian was correct when he said that the 'International Signedfor' system strangely only tracks to our shoreline. After that it's taken over by the country of intended destination. So, if a record goes missing, or turns up damaged, who does the sender claim from? Is it the Royal Mail or the postal service of the country it was sent to? I mean, do the Royal Mail compensate you then take up the matter with the postal service of the destination country? Or do they tell you it's not their problem after it left our shores? Makes you wonder, doesn't it? Has anybody got a definitive answer to this quandary?

As you sent it 'Signedfor', I take it that was within the UK? So what was the reason given for not compensating you?

That label looks a lot like my J Mercy Baby release, except it's yellow.

Is this the same P&P label with J Mercy Baby as one of the labels recording artist? I'm gonna guess no, 'cos the one I've got sounds a lot earlier than the label you describe in your opening notes. But . . . you never know. I know I don't know, you know! :D

So this is a Barbara Harris, lead singer of the Toys, on her own, doing her own version of the Crystals / Toys "I Got A Man"? Cool. Are you able to post up a sound file of it?
