i'm so damn sick and tired to buy stuff cause people state everything as EX etc, when the records arrive they seem to have aged about 30 years or more. i would state this shitty cover as G cause of all the bends and yellowed colour and sticker damages and shit! how are their M condition records?!  |

Yeah, I find it annoying too. When I sell stuff, I try to grade correctly ... and have included some F's in my listings  However, if a seller has loads of records to list, things do get overlooked ... but obviously a M- sleeve that looks as though it was communial bog roll at Glastonbury is not missable. I had a grumble from a buyer a year or so ago. I sold a Demob 7" (only got £6.50 for it  ) described as EX. The buyer commented that it should have been VG as it was chipped at the edge. I'd only checked the actual playing surface. There was no negging involved, I just explined my position to her and apologised. If she'd paid £20 for it, I'd have probably given her a partial refund. Get back to the seller and complain, Henk. I thought it was just us Brits who didn't like complaining. I've only had cause to complain once on eBay. I bought the Blitz All Out Attack EP after the seller told me it had stamped labels. Upon arrival, I noticed that it was the standard white label version, which were totally graffiti-ised. He gave me a full refund, didn't awant the record back and I sold it for about £2 on eBay (correctly advertised!). Mind you, the playing surface was EX+, so it was a great item at a good price for somebody who just wanted to listen to the record. Fuckin' 'ell, I've wittered on a bit there. |

got the unrehearsed LP of Disrupters today, sent in a plastic-bubble bag, with tiny cartons that maybe could protect a 7"
didnt want to blow his 100% , so i'll email the guy instead WRITING LIKE THIS OR SO!
about that blitz ep - is that the worlds grafittiest record?! mine is too, and i've seen 100's more of them.
i think i know where to find a rubberstamped copy. but if i don't hurry it will be gone for sure

I know where to get a copy too. I won't publish it on here in case it's the same copy as you've got your eyes on, but he wants over £40 for it.
How much is it worth? Hmm... well ask yourself how much do you want it? My first copy cost me over £50. I then found another for £10 and a third for £28. They are ALL different, too! Josh picked up one for less than £10, so it's a real sod to value. We all know that they do not appear for sale very often, so it IS very rare.
Also, check that the stamp is like the picture on my website!!!! There are copies with 'A' and 'B' stamped on the labels - I've seen them on eBay. This may have be done by No Future before they got the main rubber stamp made (in which case I've missed out BIG time) ... but is more likely to be a home made job on a standard white label pressing.
