Killer Garage Soul 45s
Nu-Tones - Easy Way To Love (Soul Plus) Ex £80 Bang on for now garage soul monster just waiting for some exposure! Reminds me of The Vondells and The Naturals on Path. As far as I’m aware pretty much totally unknown (see YouTube clip has had about 200 views and most of those were me!) Only a matter of time before this takes off - watch price soar, it’s a rare one! https://youtu.be/Yiil2kVqnVU Mary Jane - See That Girl (Ka-Jan) Mint- £60 Moody loner garage ballad that’s gaining popularity on the lowrider scene. Tiny private press label so can’t imagine there’s too many of these knocking about. Still under the radar so still cheap(ish). https://youtu.be/hvxlDfiATDQ Soul Mates - Your Love Was A Lie (NOT ON LABEL) Ex £100 Private press rarity that is seldom if ever offered for sale. Has appeared only a handful of times on Discogs and eBay. An organ led ballad that’s moodier than my misses. Lovely copy too, doubt another will appear anytime soon! https://youtu.be/sENG9Wz7HW4 Emotions - Who Are You (EMO) Vg+ £75 Another private press (at least they gave the label a name) and another that barely ever shows up for sale. Moody mid tempo that reminds me of The Cult 45s on 20th Century. https://youtu.be/9JJyvINLMMs PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

***SOLD*** Chuck Kenwood
Chuck Kenwood - That’s The Time (C.O.D.’s Kellmac mispress) Mint- £200 Killer semi-known northern/R&B that is preposterously rare on Night Owl (two copies?) presented here in its slightly more common format as a mispress of the C.O.D.’s ‘I’m A Good Guy’ on Kellmac. A mystery until a year or so ago for those fortunate enough to own one until recently ID’d by Matt Weingarden. As a result a few copies have entered the market with prices ranging from £350 to over £1k. Offering this at a bargain price thanks to something of an expensive month! An opportunity to acquire an obscure, rare and relatively exclusive newer discovery. https://youtu.be/kFZOy_QlLPI PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Funk Edged Northern: Demon Bros. on Quinvy
Demon Brothers - Uh Huh (Quinvy) Mint- £150 BOOM! This 45 is an absolute bomb. Semi-know, rare as hell, storming funk edged northern that will set the dance floor on fire. Was selling at around £400 at one time and whilst price seems to have dropped with a few copies appearing out of collections it remains a very rare 45. Right for now and I’m no DJ but if I was this would be a set starter for me. Stunning shiny labels and blemish free vinyl. Please don’t buy it so I have to keep it. https://youtu.be/KcjKGl1Xu98 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

***SOLD***Bob Marshall & The Crystals on L-Rev
Bob Marshall And The Crystals - You Got Me Crying/I’m Gonna Pay You Back (L-Rev) Vg+ £300 Raw as you like, under the radar group northern, double hitter that very very rarely comes to market. A copy made £425 on eBay a year or so ago and the last Discogs sale was £287 (is someone playing one or both sides currently as demand seems to be rising steeply?) Known to collectors but not sure this has ever been played out consistently and certainly is yet to have its day. Both sides sound right for now, with flip having a garage soul feel to it. Rare one too with no more than six copies through eBay and seven through Discogs this will be a £500+ when it takes off. Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/7A7yyrPcNPw https://youtu.be/4lQAnAIJXLA PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Lesser Known Garage, Gospel, Popcorn & Lowrider Cheapies
Aaron Neville - She Took You For A Ride (Parlo) Ex £25 Killer lowrider/crossover cheapie that’s under the radar here but we’ll known stateside. Last few I’ve had have gone to pretty well known DJs so must be getting some plays somewhere! Not many 45s of this quality still available for this sort of price! Doesn’t turn up often either so expect to see it rise soon. https://youtu.be/6KIErHQ2O9c Gentleman Jim And The Horsemen - Sharon (Jerden) Ex £35 Infectious Garage/R&B that sounds right for now. Seems pretty unknown and there are copies around but not sure for how long. Been on repeat in my living room since I first heard it! https://youtu.be/wkk3WBzFDWQ Johnny Braff - Nobody Can Take Your Place (Ace) Vg++ (WOL) £15 Killer under the radar Islands Soul/Popcorn beat ballad. Not especially rare, although difficult to find in anything but pretty beat up condition. A real bargain IMHO and the type of sound that’s becoming increasingly popular again. https://youtu.be/bwlWZdq6Q-o Chicago Travelers - He Will Make It Alright LP (featuring ‘Standing At The Station’) (B.G.S.) vinyl Mint- sleeve Vg+ £50 Fantastic 70s/80s Gospel Funk track that o think Paul Sadot played a bit done years ago. On the radar of those on continent but not elsewhere. https://youtu.be/2fOMMdJQGQk Edwards Generation - Someone Like You (Ghetto) £10 Last but by no means least, the final copy I have of this early Edwards Generation kiddie soul lowrider killer. Last three I had flew out, don’t miss out - it won’t be this cheap next time! https://youtu.be/ygE9qV74sWA PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Shades of Sorrow - Garage, Chicano & Blue Eyed lowrider
Combo Juveniles - Never Leave Me Lonely (Uncle) Mint- (WOL see image) £175 Suriname sweet soul rarity with killer horns and organ. Still somewhat under the radar but gaining big attention on both continents thanks in part to Mr818joker’s popular YouTube channel (19k views and rising don’t lie). Last copy through eBay went at over £245 and it is a tough 45 to find! Don’t sleep at this price, vinyl is flawless! https://youtu.be/RWQbqKqmWzo Faces – I Didn’t Want Her (Regina WD) Vg+ £150 Killer lowrider group harmony. Seems to be exceptionally rare given the tiny number through eBay and Discogs, pretty much totally under the radar too (except to one or two of the Popcorn collectors), but it’s recent upload to M818joker’s incredibly popular YouTube channel is changing that. Last one I had I could’ve sold five times over so it’s on the way up! https://youtu.be/bgwDsYqlHlw Mary Jane - See That Girl (Ka-Jan) Mint- £75 Moody loner garage ballad that’s gaining popularity on the lowrider scene. Tiny private press label so can’t imagine there’s too many of these knocking about. Still under the radar so still cheap(ish). https://youtu.be/hvxlDfiATDQ Paul Varisco & The Milestones - Hey Girl (Marceau from New Orleans) Mint- £40 Killer version! Made an appearance on a recent Shades of Sorrow MixCloud and rightly so. Stunning lowrider ballad that is still cheap despite being a 45 that’s not easy to find. Not many of this quality still at £50 and under. https://youtu.be/zObX7UEBBX8 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Killer Crossover/Northern Semi-Known
Errol Chandler - What Have I Done (Power-Pac) Mint- £200 Stunning and virtually unknown mid tempo crossover/northern rarity that really stands out - incredible that 45s like this are still out there and under exposed. Can only find a couple of recorded sales on Discogs, none on Popsike and none on any of the FB groups. Power-Pac was an imprint label of Scram out of New Orleans with a few high end rarities to its name. Given its obscurity it must be as rare as those few recorded sales suggest and given its quality this one has an enormous future. Have a terrible feeling I may regret selling at this price! https://youtu.be/2QhW5R-C3H4 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Upfront Garage, Gospel and R&B Bangers
Wild Ones featuring Joe Webster - I’ve Been Crying (S.P.Q.R.) Mint- £125 Northern meets R&B, meets garage soul and sounds absolutely bang on for now. Spoken intro and then BOOM! 100mph group dancer that should be massive, a set starter if ever there was one. About to get some serious turntable action and it’s not an easy find in any condition let alone store stock! Seen at over £200 recently too! https://youtu.be/oA2tXPbCHjM Nu-Tones - Easy Way To Love (Soul Plus) Ex £100 Bang on for now garage soul monster just waiting for some exposure! Reminds me of The Vondells and The Naturals on Path. As far as I’m aware pretty much totally unknown (see YouTube clip has had about 200 views and most of those were me!) Only a matter of time before this takes off - watch price soar, it’s a rare one! https://youtu.be/Yiil2kVqnVU Chicago Travelers - He Will Make It Alright LP (featuring ‘Standing At The Station’) (B.G.S.) vinyl Mint- sleeve Vg+ £75 Impossible to find LP that includes the killer funk edged crossover cut ‘Standing At The Station’. A former Paul Sadot play that thanks to its rarity is still barely known, plenty of life left in it for the more progressive DJs and collectors. One click of the only YouTube clip there is will get you wondering why this isn’t already massive! https://youtu.be/2fOMMdJQGQk PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Hot Box In Demander: Glories - No News
Glories - No News (Date WD) Vg+ (XOL) £150 Big, big, big demand on this from those in the know and very, very little availability. Last copy I had I could have sold five times over and every time it gets listed it goes up in price and disappears faster than you can say ‘hot box’ (last sale on Discogs was £175 so this will be £200 in six months time). This either is or is about to get some big plays and once it does it’ll go massive. Fabulous funk edged sister soul northern, with huge potential. A rare 45 too. https://youtu.be/a0cz8J57L3o PayPal as friends and family or add 4%. Postage UK £3.50 registered and insured, £2.10 standard first class, Europe £8.95 tracked and signed.

Lowrider Daggers
Sunday - Where Did He Come From/Ain’t Got No Problems (Chess) Ex £225 Sunday Williams’ divine doubleheader in almost flawless condition! So so hard to find in anything but beaten up condition, last Mint- on Discogs making a whooping £300! Top side massive lowrider in demander that’s pushed the price of clean copies to crazy levels, flip it for some northern/crossover. Seriously, don’t sleep it will be gone by morning at this price in this condition. https://youtu.be/zWJTzBbdnhc https://youtu.be/7xUBhCyK_5k Curtis Davis - Somebody/Your Love And My Money (Bev-Mar) Vg+ £100 I’ll probably regret this in six months because this is a relatively under the radar lowrider bomb just waiting to go off! Could’ve sold my last Mint- copy five times over at £150, this one is low end Vg+ with some hairlines but minimal, very light background noise here and there (clip below from actual 45). That intro is just so fucking good! Flip it for a drum heavy funk edged slab of R&B that is simply perfect for today’s upfront dance floors. Big US lowrider dealer has one on Cogs at at over £200 but he’s probably a few months ahead with that price, rest assured though this will be a £300+ 45 once it gets heard more widely. https://youtu.be/5yAmovAoxnA https://youtu.be/MA3-1oN8xf8 King Davis and The House Rockers - We All Make Mistakes Sometimes/Baby You Satisfy Me (Verve) Vg+ £60 Absolute killer lowrider deepie of such quality I’m surprised it’s still this cheap given prices on 45s that are nowhere near as good! Flip is a storming, seemingly forgotten, northern dancer with legs left in it for enterprising DJs. Doesn’t show often either especially as an issue, last one I had was a demo and could have sold six or seven copies. https://youtu.be/ii6sgbuytA4 https://youtu.be/gXHHLAXYUHY Paul Varisco & The Milestones - Hey Girl (Marceau from New Orleans) Mint- £50 The best of a very good bunch for me. Made an appearance on a recent Shades of Sorrow MixCloud and rightly so. Stunning lowrider ballad that is still cheap despite being a 45 that’s not easy to find.

Lowrider Holy Grail: Larry Sanders (Hot Cakes)
***LOWRIDER GRAIL 45 *** Larry Sanders – I’m In Love (Hot Cakes) Vg++ ***OFFERS OVER £750*** Seriously rare, seriously in demand and seriously beautiful. Larry Sanders’ sublime lowrider rarity in superb condition (three DNAP marks away from Mint-). This first local release on the Alabama based Hot Cakes label and its later Modern release out of LA for wider distribution have between them changed hands on eBay on fewer than 10 occasions in the last 15 or so years. The last two sales on Hot Cakes took place in 2020 and 2021 where a VG copy made $1423, and a copy with audible crackle sold for $999. A very, very rare opportunity to own this 45 in possibly the finest condition available (can’t say I’ve seen any Mint- copies). Never mind don’t sleep, suggest you don’t blink! Will leave this open for a few days, but reserve the right to close early if I get a bid I cannot refuse. Clip below for reference only, clip from actual 45 available on request by DM. https://youtu.be/GuxVC-cvaco OFFERS INVITED ABOVE £750. Offers by PM or email to gspluck@aol.com.

Killer Garage Soul/R&B: Little John & The Monks
Little John And The Monks - Black Winds (Jerden) Vg++ (a couple of hairlines from Ex/Mint-, clean labels great copy) £200 BOOM! Killer garage/R&B beat ballad that’s been a BIG play for Michael Robinson in the US and is now making noises on the continent thanks to growing demand for garage soul and forward thinking DJs like Thomas Shore and others. This one has a massive future IMHO and is already a £250 plus 45. Sounds perfect current sets and it’s a tough 45 to find. https://youtu.be/vafYC78PO90 PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

More Lowrider Daggers
Cheques - If You Leave Me Now/Stix And Stones (Heatwave) Ex £125 Blue eyed lowrider dagger from the group better known for their in demand ‘In The Groove’ 45. Hard 45 to acquire in any condition and this one is top end Ex! Flip is a nice groovy garage style dancer that could easily have legs with current tastes. https://youtu.be/xJoJsdep6z8 https://youtu.be/MY2-B6k5GtI Lunatics - You’ll Lose A Precious Love (Caribbean Hot Wax) Vg £75 Pretty much unknown group soul lowrider 45 that’s as rare as rocking horse … Islands soul 45 so inevitably rare and pretty beat when it turns up, recently sold for £150 on eBay in similar condition, this one plays well with some light background noise. Hidden YouTube clip here (not the copy for sale). Don’t expect to see another of these for a while! https://youtu.be/Rnn8ryD8nEs Billi Welles and The Outer Realm Unlimited - Date With Destiny (Mercede) Ex £50 Another better known for a different 45, in this instance with his former group the Invaders and ‘This Heart These Hands’. Here’s Billi (Billy) with the more psych sounding Outer Realm Unlimited with a killer psych soul lowrider outing. Under the radar still I think so cheap (for now). https://youtu.be/fnAYA9rRRZk Little Tommy Payton - Once In My Life / Once Again My Girl Has Gone (Harvest) Ex £80 Mega rare kiddie soul ballad from the ‘Mountain of Soul’ man. Only recently uploaded to YouTube (the flip is decent too but has yet to be featured anywhere). Very tough 45 to acquire in any condition, nice clean copy here for what’s a relatively cheap price given this record’s rarity (seen sell at £200 too!) https://youtu.be/sutymut9CZU PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Killer Garage Soul/R&B 45s
Fabulous Flippers - I Need You (Fona) Vg+ (lower end but plays well, clip below from actual 45) £125 Killer garage soul that’s not on YouTube (clip is from this copy). Their rarest 45 by far and one that’s featured on Jack White’s playlist in the last year or so. Tough 45 to pick up in any condition. This one plays good Vg+ despite hairlines (clip below from actual copy) https://youtu.be/VHkDZlvozeY Nu-Tones - Easy Way To Love (Soul Plus) Ex £125 Bang on for now garage soul monster just waiting for some exposure!

Gospel Grail: Soul Stirrers - Don’t You Worry
Soul Stirrers - Don’t You Worry (Checker) Mint- (SOL see image) £250 One of, if not THE, best gospel funk/soul 45s to have ever graced the decks. A 45 that so very rarely is offered for sale in what looks like unplayed condition. Still plenty of legs left in this one, still sounds bang on for now and rarity means it’s far from over exposed.

Northern/Group Grail: Little Ronnie & The Chromatics (HL
Little Ronnie And The Chromatics - What A Day This Have Been/Speak What’s On Your Mind (HLS) Vg+ (small edge warp DNAP, couple of barely audible ticks in first 15 seconds - see clip below - otherwise grades strong Vg++ £400 Okay this is a seriously rare 45. There’s one on Discogs at £750, but prior to this I’ve only seen it come up once and that was in 2016 on a Manship Auction (N.B. That copy had some serious H2O damage to one side). In John’s own words: ‘You are viewing one of the golden-unicorns of Rare Soul collecting, so outrageously Rare, even long standing collectors of the Bay Area vinyl, have never seen a copy.This is only the 2nd. copy I’ve ever come across in my lifetime’. The copy John refers to sold for a final price of £424 seven years ago. Two glorious sides of group harmony soul, the top side is coveted by northern collectors and those in know. Never appears on playlist (too few people with a copy I imagine) and as per above simply never comes to market. Three clips below the first is from the actual 45, there a couple of barely audible ticks in the first 10 or so seconds before the rest plays as strong Vg++, the other two clips are for reference only. https://youtube.com/shorts/OimPM-Rf8rI?feature=share https://youtu.be/2zApmgAcxdU https://youtu.be/5e2IEhBt83M PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Upfront Garage Soul and R&B
Bo Shiloh - You Gonna Lose/Sell My Soul To The Devil (Savannah) Vg (plays clean and above grade) £150 Mega rare 45! Barely known outside of Europe and the US where it’s had some minimal exposure. Just three times through eBay tells me this one is as rare as hen’s teeth. Two great sides of R&B with a garage flavour that sound bang on for now, probably why it’s had some interest on the continent. Don’t think there’s another copy in the U.K. Rarity alone tells me this should be closer to £300. https://youtu.be/1fTkejtu19Q https://youtu.be/EwLmlfzb8MU Nu-Tones - Easy Way To Love (Soul Plus) Ex £125 Bang on for now garage soul monster just waiting for some exposure!

Only a matter of time before this takes off - watch price soar, it’s a rare one! https://youtu.be/Yiil2kVqnVU Kampells - New Lock On My Door (Select) Ex £100 Killer garage soul/R&B, had some exposure in Europe from the likes of Michele Coco but remains widely unknown. Last decent copy on Cogs sold for £120 and with huge potential can only increase in value. One for the more forward thinking DJs out there. https://youtu.be/R8UxKd46gxc The Mauds - You Make Me Feel So Bad (Mercury) Vg+ £35 Like it’s stable mate by The Riddles ALL copies of this 45 have vanished. And it’s no surprise as this honestly blew me away when I first heard it, garage soul at it’s very best and still cheap (but then The Riddles is now an £100 45)!

***SOLD***Lesser known/unknown northern, garage, R&B
Paul ‘Guitar Red’ Johnson - That I Love You (Kellmac) Mint- £125 One of the hardest on the label and certainly the least known. Was a c/up for Keb Darge in the halcyon days of Stafford but like do many it had a few plays before being dropped and has never surfaced since. This is a killer chugging mid tempo slab of dirty northern R&B that will have its day! Last one I had sold at £150 and that wasn’t as clean. https://youtu.be/CLxPxIXv3pk Lucious Broome - Keep On Moving/Getting Ready For The Heartaches (Tru-Soul) Vg+ £50 Fabulous Detroit double sider that’s pretty much unknown, tough record to find too especially in anything like half decent condition. My last copy went at £75. https://youtu.be/aYLqVQi-ZoQ https://youtu.be/tEOdRv4yQhk The Mauds - You Make Me Feel So Bad (Mercury) Mint- £40 Like it’s stable mate by The Riddles ALL copies of this 45 have vanished. And it’s no surprise as this honestly blew me away when I first heard it, garage soul at it’s very best and still cheap (but then The Riddles is now an £100 45)!

Lowrider Daggers
Johnny & The Expressions - Now That You’re Mine/Shy Girl (Josie) Vg+ £80 Lowrider twofer here and another 45 that’s shot up in price over the last couple of years, now commanding four figures in anything above Vg! Two fabulous sides of group harmony soul, ‘Mine’ is my personal pick of the two. Hairlines only on this one a bargain! https://youtu.be/-OOjtJDtKA0 https://youtu.be/I2aMIc-j018 Communicators and The Black Experience Band - One Chance (Duplex) Vg (plays clean above grade) £50 Killer lowrider group ballad that seems to be pushing £100 these days, this copy has some slight label damage and grades around Vg but plays nicely (priced accordingly). https://youtu.be/Gk9ZbRk4wYs Bilal Sabir (Allahu Akbar) - Changes/ Bilalian Woman (Not On Label) Mint £20 A 2018 Backatcha lookalike reissue of this ridiculously rare old Bob Abraham spin, a wonderful stripped back 70s ballad, flip is just as good with a Dorondo type crossover feel. Arguably the only way to own this rarity on vinyl. https://youtu.be/GKSwoSGVx9s https://youtu.be/Y4TYa_u3OjQ PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Funk Edged In Demander: Early Clover on Dove
Early Clover And The Georgia Soul Drifters - Freedom/Think It Over (Dove) Vg++ £300 One of THE top sounds over the past ten years with plenty of life left in it thanks to its rarity. Two killer sides of funk edged dance floor soul that transcend genres and scenes. A big spin in Europe and the U.K. for the more upfront DJs. Very very tough 45 to acquire especially in decent condition. Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/89IREdHwc7o https://youtu.be/_tNDjVBlQ3U PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Killer lowrider rarities
Admirations - My Admiration For You/Heaven Is In Your Arms (Paree) Ex £350 Increasing interest in sweet soul and lowrider 45s has seen demand for this exquisite group harmony ballad increase significantly and, as a consequence, the price has more than doubled with its last two sales on Discogs reaching £500 in 2020 and £525 last year, my last copy went to a US collector in BIG trade. Flip it for another wonderful slab of northern group harmony that has - as mentioned- been somewhat overlooked in favour of some of their other outings. Beware not all sides play ‘Heaven’ in the flip, but this ones does (a rarity of a rarity). This doesn’t get come to market often, and when it does it’s a lot more expensive! Don’t sleep. https://youtu.be/b7wLSOdZjPU https://youtu.be/z8f9Um8i10g Willie G & The Six Pack - Lonely Lullaby/Brown Baby (Gordo) Mint- £100 A genuinely hard to find solo outing by the King of Chicano Soul and a superb twofer. Both sides are sublime lowrider soul, ‘Lonely’ is my preference but the flip (actually a version of Jade’s Brown and Beautiful) will have it’s fans. Tough 45 to find and one that’s still relatively under the radar. Not many this good still at this price level! https://youtu.be/UXfQ40dj404 https://youtu.be/rzjrzIWx3xQ Little Tommy Payton - Once In My Life / Once Again My Girl Has Gone (Harvest) Ex £100 From Lilttle Willie to Little Tommy (seamless). Mega rare kiddie soul ballad, only recently uploaded to YouTube (the flip is decent too but has yet to be featured anywhere). Very tough 45 to acquire in any condition, nice clean copy here for what’s a relatively cheap price given this record’s rarity (seen sell at £200 too!) https://youtu.be/sutymut9CZU Edwards Generation - Someone Like You (Ghetto) £15 Last but by no means least, the final copy I have of this early Edwards Generation kiddie soul lowrider killer. Last three I had flew out, don’t miss out - it won’t be this cheap next time! https://youtu.be/ygE9qV74sWA PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.

Garage Soul/R&B
Chuck Baker - Gotta Get Away From L.A.(Industrial International) Mint- £100 (Former Baker Boys Inc. - Gotta Get Away C/UP) Brian Maguire and Sean Pumfrett’s incredible, and pretty much exclusive (?) Baker Boys Inc. c/up now uncovered (by kind permission for once LOL). An absolute killer slice of R&B influenced Garage that’s already gaining interest from Europe and the US. A tough 45 to find by the looks of it so don’t expect it’ll be easy to find now it’s uncovered. A chance to add a near exclusive banger to your current set or collection. https://youtu.be/pk8EIBt42P8 Johnny Soul and The Manchesters - Wait/Let’s Kiss Again (Dome) Mint- £50 Killer double sider! Sublime psych/soul ballad one side, thumping garage R&B on the other. Rarer than his other one and this is a lovely clean copy! https://youtu.be/u-Y0GGCmgt4 https://youtu.be/KNEgHsOcwDA Cult - You Know You Really Hurt Me Girl (20th Century) Mint- £50 Moody garage soul beat ballad, that’s much, much harder than it’s big label release suggests! This blew me away when I first heard it and have been trying stock pile copies before letting on but there’s none out there! One play and you’ll be hooked! Played by Brian Maguire slightly pitched (hear below) and all the better for it. https://youtu.be/8_rhYYtpD68 Dynamic Hursmen - Love Is A Beautiful Thing (IGL) Vg+ £45 Courtesy of Thomas Shore (who I think was first with this one?) comes this killer garage soul dancer on a label that has more than its fair share of hard to find garage 45s. Personally think has tons of potential, sounds bang on for now and is still very much under the radar. https://youtu.be/oPvSYu-zpyA PayPal as friends and family or add 4%.
