Foolish People: clueless ebay record sellers

[Stanco rules]

Here's a bargain on ebay right now. It's a test pressing of the 1980s boot of the Spades

[Frantic]

Yep, for sure a 80s test boot. $4 tops.

 

[Stanco rules]

I offered $20 for it in the "make offer" section. He hasn't got back to me.

 

[captainsalty]

oh wow, what a bargain!

This looked interesting:
YOUNGMEN By The Way TYRANT GOLD Mega Rare CT GARAGE FOLK New England

despite the usual hype:

"Mega-rare, unseen, impossible-to-find… One of few exisiting copies:"​

But believe me, don't waste your time!

I told the dealer that this copy was a 80s boot worth $10, but he replied : "well popsike says that on 6.19.2011 the same record was sold for $505...so . i got all the info from there...for right now i will take popsike's word"

I just saw a Roger Whittaker 45 cover version of a Tim Hardin folk song listed on EBay as "Northern Soul".
Is this just a "lazy" dealer listing or is something really strange going on in the Northern dance clubs now?

Seriously?

Seriously?
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Atlantic...Garage-Beat-/111776741442?hash=item1a0669b842

and he already tried to sell it twice at that price and it didn't sell either time.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Atlantic...Garage-Beat-/111764494000?hash=item1a05aed6b0

but he did sell another copy for $24

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ATLANTIC...ssie-QK1691-/111753118164?hash=item1a050141d4

and one for $29.

[Outside_Lookin_in]

Even $24 is ridiculous!

 

[Frantic]

Even $24 is ridiculous!

that would be CLUELESS BUYER then, not CLUELESS SELLER.

"Actually Not Garage Or Punk"!

Let's applaud this one. Takes a well-known garage aficionado to tell it like it is for once:

I saw that while going though Ebay, Chris! A perfect description for once.

That's Greg "Chesterfield Kings" Prevost on ebay.

 

[Outside_Lookin_in]

The nicest people to deal with on eBay (including his other half)!

 

[Heitkotter77]

Absolutely. I still have the great Chesterfield Kings Christmas postcard I got one year with a purchase.

We should be talking about them in a thread called Cool People: clued-in eBay record sellers.
There are a few like that.

 

[facialhair69]

I just got The Spats - She Done Moved from them. Very nice experience.
