The first one quarter of the list will go up 7 and a half (roughly) hours from now. At that time it will be :

Sunday 14th 9pm in Sydney
Sunday 14th 5am in New York
Sunday 14th 2am in Los Angeles
Sunday 14th 10am in London

This of course happens here in the Secret Society. It won't be in the Set Sale Supermarket until 3 days later.

Mark , if your friend was there in the 60s and bought 45's at gigs he must have some great stories to tell any chance you can get him to regale us with said stories ?

The collector is Peter Bliek. You will find his name in the credits of David Shutt's original TX garage discography Journey To Tyme, along with forum member Dave Baldwin.
Peter has already been on the forum years ago, and told a few tales at that time. At this time he is still recovering from a stroke, which is probably the reason he is not handling the record sales himself.
I have seen a few records where there are 3 or 4 mint copies. Those are probably some of the ones he got at the gigs. Hope fully he will have 4 mint copies of, um...Randy Alvey? Greg Barr? Four More? Botumles Pit?

A note about the timetable for posting the collection list. This time it's not very good for USA members, as it's coming up in the middle of the night for them, but I will change and vary that with every new list. So USA guys can expect a better time for the January list. I'll try to be fair to all.

 

[bosshoss]

The first batch of the Peter Bliek collection is due up in 20 minutes.
Please get your orders in quickly, to the email address that will be provided at the top of the list.
The seller is working on the basis if first come, first served.
You will not receive an immediate reply, because the seller is in Adelaide until Tuesday.
I myself have no part in the actual sale, and I won't know who is ordering what.
But whoever emails their order first, will get the record, and will be notified on Tuesday.

I'll post the list right here in this thread.

Good luck!

 

[bosshoss]

I'll post the list right here in this thread. It will only be about 20 discs at first, the rest will appear over the next 18 hours to even out the timezone advantage.

For my own sake, I have decided to keep the next postings at random intervals. That way, I am not tied down to a timetable 24 hours a day!

They'll all be up within 18 hours.

 

[bosshoss]

Everyone who was notified that they won a record from their want list, should contact Marek asap, at the email address given above the list.

 

[chas_kit]

Very sensible prices on this batch.

 

[Stanco rules]

Reminds me of Doug Hanner's lists back in the old days.

 

[Lewis]

Some really nice stuff and very reasonable prices I think.

 

[MopTopMike]

Best selection of 45s since the JJ pimping of the Hans Kesteloo collection back in the 1990s. But that was a combo auction and set-sale.

 

[CollectorScum]

bosshoss, should wants lists still go to you or straight to Marek?

 

[chas_kit]

I prefer a scheduled posting to random, even if larger batches. Random keeps me hanging around the computer. In any case, this is exciting stuff, especially as this first list is supposed to be more low-end. I can only imagine what some of the later lists will look like.

 

[down-n-out]

Are you kidding me? This small batch is meant to keep me from spending all my Christmas money?

 

[bosshoss]

bosshoss, should wants lists still go to you or straight to Marek?

Wantlists to me please. Marek will just use them as toilet paper.
