didn't someone just sell that? or are they selling it again for some reason.

someone sold an open copy pretty recently i think.

looks like the same guy; maybe he got two copies. or three, if he's keeping one.

so many $$ but god what a record

you ever sell a record and get one of these?

Hello,

I am wondering if you'd be willing to end this auction early if we can agree on a price? I've been looking for this record for a long time!

let me know what you think.

****

dont do it if there are bids! if no bids yet, i still wouldnt do it, but if you think you can get a better price, it might be reasonable.

by the way, although i advise against doing it, i have sent things like that before to sellers...

I've never sent something like that, but I *have* searched old auctions and found something that I've been looking for where I never saw the seller's original listing and the item ended without bids. Then emailed them and asked if they would sell it to me offline of the 'Bay

done that too

i never considered accepting the offer, i told the guy that he should just bid and whatever he was willing to pay, make that his maximum bid and hey you never know, you might end up paying less (but dudes like that are always trying to score a $100 LP for $30 ime)

dudes like 69!

ladies LOVE 69!

heyyyyyy

one time (probably detailed upthread tbh), i asked a dude if he'd consider making buy-it-nows of his bidless ORIGINAL MUSIC listings, cause i was gonna buy em all. he agreed, and even said he'd do it for $25 instead of the $30 i offered to pay. unfortunately, this east coast gentleman chose to make them buy-it-nows at 6am PST, before confirming the time with me. when i woke up at 7 on a saturday only to make sure the listings hadnt been put up yet, they were already listed and gone. obviously i was more mad at myself for engineering this dumb-shit deal than anything else, and it's kept me from trying any other ebay shenanigans since.

woke up at 7 on a saturday only to make sure the listings hadnt been put up yet

ha! actually, at the height of my insanity there were a few times I set my alarm for 2, 3 in the morning to get up and snipe auctions that were ending then

get esnipe

" i have a pretty cool original 1939 nazi day planner that i got in a box of books from my brother and i don't know what to do with it. kinda cool. original nazi pencil included!"......no wonder my schedule has been slightly off

from a chuck norris movie.."Shortly after, Chuck gets a lead on an evil Nazi warehouse. I'm sure there was some reason given as to how he found it, but I don't really remember or care. Trust me, menial plot details don't matter when you're watching Top Dog. Later that night, with no search warrant in hand, Chuck breaks into the warehouse and takes Reno along. Backup officers wait outside. It is while inside the warehouse that Chuck and Reno make their breakthrough discovery- the Nazi Day-Planner! Lying in a random desk in the warehouse, is a guide showing pictures of where the Nazis are going to strike next. As Chuck and Reno try and sneak out though, they get caught by the Nazis. I guess the Nazis stay up all night in their Nazi warehouse, talking about how much they hate minorities. Surrounded by bad guys, Chuck only has one choice. He gets out the Nazi Day-Planner, gives it to Reno, and tells him to run. He really doesn't even do it that quickly. The flunkies however, are completely dumbfounded by this as they watch Reno run away. It's not until the Nazi Ringleader tells them to 'get that dog!' that a couple of them run after Reno and the rest fight Chuck."

and the dog never stopped until it reached danbunny

ugh i sold a record for $66 bucks and the buyer who had of course a rating of only (1) closed their ebay account two days later before paying for it. i hate assholes like that.

i'm always thankful when someone pays within a few minutes of the auction ending, but every time i put a few records up i end up waiting for that last person to pay, and they end up doing it five days later.

bought this for five bucks a couple weeks ago. who knew?

current batch of 78s i'm selling for work:
http://shop.ebay.com/academy78s/m.html

Quite pleased, got Small Faces "Ogdens" mono original for 99p.

A little crackly, but pretty damn good. It didn't have a sleeve, so that's why.

please to explain me this:

"Note: comes with high quality laser copy (printed on cardboard) of original artwork!"

does that mean that they, like, lost the picture sleeve or something?

people keep telling me that i should sell on discogs. should i move on over from ebay? i keep hearing about how people regularly pay really high prices on there for stuff. and that you can move things quicker.

if you've got a rare rap or disco record, discogs is a good way to go tbh. we've put stuff up for $100 or $200 and it'll sell overnight sometimes.

definitely browsed by serious record collector type dudes.

discogs sales history is pretty cool too

which chet atkins records did u get

don't count yer chickens til they're hatched, iirc... just put in a low bid on the lot. we'll see.

there's more than enough to love in every record, i think. so long as you aren't bothered by it being a solo over theme from doctor zhivago or something

my roommate got me into chet & also told me this wonderful story about him. apparently some 20th c virtuoso classical guitarist, on his deathbed, was asked who the greatest living guitarist was and he answered "chester atkins"

zedo, bluekai and atwola dot com, why are you suddenly running javascripts on my browser when I go to eBay?

what is it with this tennent & morrison record?

i ain't never heard it. do you have a copy? i wanna know why friggin' stone the crow albums all of a sudden are worth more than ten bucks. they're kinda horrible.

stone the crows, that is.

Amateurist tipped me off to a guy selling a ton of old-time music LPs and even more excitingly, 78rpm acetates of ultra-rare sides, duped from clean originals. Such good stuff. Alfred Karnes. Shortbuckle Roark. Charlie Bowman. Floyd Ming & His Pep Steppers (asian-american fiddle band!)... drooling over here.

yeah i read your drunk facebook post about that. wait, they are bootleg 78s!?

yes.

perhaps better to say they are duplicates made for archival purposes.

nope, i don't have that tennent morrison lp. bid on it a few times 'cause it looks cool, but it always winds up at insane $$$.
