    Hi All, Anyone furnish me with an MP3 soundfile of the above please. Thanks in advance Alamo
  5. Hi Martin, Thankyou for taking the time to reply. I agree wholeheartedly with your comments. They have been upfront which is fairplay but I think weve all been wrapped up in selling / buying things instead of paying attention to the detail. The only things I will sell now are items that I will be happy to shift (if that makes sense). They wont get the benefit of making large sums of money from quality items.Lets hope it al backfires!! regards - alamo
  6. Thats the guy!!!
  7. Hi all, Looking for info on George Smith of 'Ive Had It' & 'Pretty Little Girl' fame. Any website links, general info about the man, pictures etc. would be really nice. Thanks in advance - Alamo
  8. Hi Ollieboogaloo, Ive got an original promo copy (033) which is very rare. Bits 'n' Pieces is on both sides and not the issue B side of Sinner. Vinyl press in EX++ condition. Might be persuaded to sell from my personal collection!? PM me if you have a price in mind. Kind regards - Alamo
  9. Thanks for the link Adam. Will peruse over the weekend. Guess we will all have to sell elsewhere. Appreciate your comments. Ali
  10. Thats interesting Adam, I wasn't aware of that. I have to plead guilty to not monitoring my account but I sold a record for £500 a few weeks ago and couldnt believe the £44 FVF!! I was flabergasted. You got a link to your site please!? regards - Ali
  11. Dear All, For those of you who are not aware Ebay changed their Selling Fees from March 1st which radically affect the final charges at the end. Basically they have reduced their insertion fees by 10p but get this, the Final Valuation Fees have now gone up to 9% across the board from 3.5% (average)!!! I know a lot of people dont check their accounts but here is an extract from an email I received from Ebay when I queried my account charges: :angry: ************************************************************** Here are some of the highlights of the fee changes that take effect on eBay.co.uk on March 1, 2007: We're lowering the Insertion Fees and simplifying the Final Value Fees charged on certain media items. We hope that this will make it more attractive for sellers to list a wider range of Media items. These categories will be affected: * Books, Comics & Magazines (excluding the Accessories sub-category). * DVDs, Film and TV (excluding the Accessories/Storage, Film Memorabilia and TV Memorabilia sub-categories). * The Games sub-category of Video Games (change does not apply to all other sub-categories of Video Games). * Music (excluding the Music Memorabilia and Accessories/ Storage sub-categories). Multiple item listings in these categories will also have a slightly different pricing structure. Selling fees for Books, Music, DVDs, Film & TV, Video Games ("Media") products Format Starting Price New Insertion Fee Auction-style £0.01 - £0.99 £0.05 Auction-style £1.00 - £4.99 £0.10 Auction-style £5.00 - £14.99 £0.10 Auction-style £15.00 - £29.99 £0.10 Auction-style £30.00 - £99.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £0.01 - £0.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £1.00 - £4.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £5.00 - £14.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £15.00 - £29.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £30.00 - £99.99 £0.10 Buy It Now £100.00 or more £0.10 Final Sale Price Final Value Fee Item not sold No Fee £0.01 - £29.99 9% of the closing value balance £30.00 - £599.99 9% of the closing value balance Over £600.00 9% of the closing value balance I hope this information answers your question. Thank you for using eBay. ************************************************************** So, gloves on, if you sell an item for £10, they will take 90p, not to mention Paypal charges (owned by Ebay!!) if you use them. Me thinks Ebay is taking full advantage of a good thing! How about Soul Source running an auction!!? I think we would all rather support this Forum than pay excessive charges to EBay/Paypal. Anyone who knows the Soul Source creators/managers, get on to the auction thing straight away. It could be a real winner!!!! What Do You think? Be interested to here your thoughts. I wondered if you might get away with listing your items unders 'Music Memorabilia' for example. You may pay a higher listing charge (which weve accepted as the norm for years) but at least the FVF wouldnt be so high!! I know the searches could pose a problem for that one! Make no mistake, They are on to a big hike in their profits this way. Its the users who are the losers. Alamo
