Thought i had never seen a twelve - 45 goes for anything from 400 down to 175 depending on past sales history sites....

Tony Aiken and Future 2000 is rare on a 45 , but would think at least £100 on a twelve of this...

The album , Welcome To My Room has been sat in my Ebay store all month £14.99 - no takers , but £50 for the 45 - just plain stupid !!! The album is quality tracks all the way - the strange world of collecting eh

Don' t have myself Ady - but this may help https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CHRIS-BARTLEY-Tomorrow-7-45rpm-MUSICOR-Spain-NEW-RARE-/130715410270?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item1e6f3edf5e#ht_500wt_1287

Reading this reminds me of two classic comments from 2011 during my sporadic D J ing. 1. This music is shit - when will you play something we know. I replied ; well waht do you know ?? answer : I only like music I know and can dance to WTF ??? 2. Whilst playing a 70s and jazz funk spot - ' get this jazz shit off don't like jazz - then punter dances energetically to Mario Bondi and Jazz Invaders - oh sorry they obviously ain't jazz records.... :yes: Just two examples that show ' you can' t please all the punters all the time - my motto - mix it up 15 mins of each style , then hopefully most punters have had a section of music they appreciated. Always been open minded like Miles Davis said : I ' VE COME TO THE CONCLUSION ONLY TWO TYPES OF MUSIC IN THIS WORLD - GOOD MUSIC AND BAD MUSIC ' What differentiates good from bad opens a vast can of worms amongst internet heads ........

You've been blocked by the seller - I've blocked over 50 people from bidding on my eBay sales - mainly Russians and French... Lucky you Mark - mines around 350 now and growing like weeds in the garden.... Will not mail to Italy now even registered goes missing , and always makes me laugh when they message re being unable to bid can 't understand why blah blah

£125 I got for one over ten years back - very rare , but check it has the picture sleeve some copies come with generic white sleeves.

Nick with regard to sheding light Steve Guarnori has described it perfectly - just a different press redone legit from Larry

. Way back I 'm sure Paul Mooney had some stuff direct from Creative Funk with a view to licensing... - I scanned some Diane Jenkins 45s for his project. Not heard anything since so over to Paul......

A clutch of over 200 items now up on Ebay auction listings.. Some nice soul albums from George Benson ( My Woman 's Good To Me ) , O C Smith ( Color Him Father ) , Randy Brown modern soul album on Parachute.

Kev purchased a load of 45s from Norm myself around March coincidentally . Had to take a paypal claim against him as I was spun the same yarn - got my money back thankfully as it was within 45 day period. Records never arrived at any time ..get moving on this quick !!!

To prove it belongs to them . Remember when I was D J ing @ school discos back in the mid 70 's every one marked their own vinyl with initials or some other means ...

You won 't be able to claim for a broken package via Royal Mail unless sent tracked insured delivery. They will also require documentary evidence before even considering honouring your losses. Just factor it in to your sales as you get one every so often these days unfortunately mishandled. Would deffo ask buyer for photo evidence just in case though

Canyon 45 anything from £10 , to £40 depending who you check

Bob only rules for Paypal chargeback on their website are unfortunately not covering excessive postage : There are a few reasons why a buyer would request a chargeback: An unauthorised payment was made with the buyer's card The buyer didn't receive the item that was paid for There were errors in processing the transaction The item does not match its description

Would gauge @ £150 - but good luck if it goes for that for Tim. It s horses for courses n all that . Often see 45 's listed here on forum that I have listed at 25 % or more less , and I ' m sure others have 45 s listed cheaper than some of my commission sales but they all sell eventually - sometimes it is just a patience game ......

Got both releases by Family Affair - highly recommended - I Had A Friend will have it 's day soon....

Let me spell it out ....500 press = marketing strategy = stampede for the opportunity to own it ...job done ! Not missing the point - the record store day limited issue is a different label design end of ? The Expansion release is on a standard Expansion logo totally different from the 500 pressed , and who said ' it 's never coming out again ' don 't recall seeing that in print but please show me if wrong I apologise in advance. How do you think record label s stay in business ????

Agreed Pete , however a daily trawl through listings shows these sell constantly from the same culprits to no avail. I have even reported fake Motown material to the relevant authorities - They could not be arsed even to reply ....

Not comfortable with it Pete , but yesterday a fellow customer contacted me - He has had dealings with this seller - charged him £12 post for 6 CD 's sent at a cost of £2.70 - When queried seller told him ' fu** *** Nice he too will be leaving relevant feedback in due course . Sometimes it makes you wonder , but I feel negatives were justified .. Sure Ebay will advise him in due course when his D S R scores drop below the accepted level....

Unfortunately when you purchase on Ebay - you enter a contract to agree to pay terms - postage is sometimes a scam . Last week I purchased three cd s in UK - Buyer requested £6 post - I stated it would only cost around £2.75 even first class for that weight - He refused to budge despite three or four messages - Put it down to experience , and left him bad feedback - not something I am comfortable with . Package came 2nd class post - cost £2.20 ...

The Ebay listed one s have been sold by Mark Coddington - He 's a full time record dealer , that 's how he makes his living like many of us . So some on here would rather maintain exclusivity and wank over a rare edition . Gregory Porter is a full time musician - who I very much doubt would concern himself with limited etc etc this is also how he earns his money. Having seen the artist live last year in Birmingham I for one am glad he is gaining the recognition he deserves - hope it will lead to him gaining more exposure - that's what musicians are in the business for. Expansion are a 25 year long established record label - pay their licensing rights and obtain masters to release product - just going about their business correctly. Pity this forum don' t have the same venom for the Ebay sellers who trot out white label test presses of Motown , Northern in demand 45s for £10 plus , and compact disc comps from various soul club anniversary nights.. F F S get a grip - I bought the Gregory porter CD as a new release , bought his second CD as a new release , and will continue buying new releases cos I like them not to cream over it 's rarity ....Some of us just going about our business on a daily basis ...but hey in the U K nanny state you should do as your told ....
