I just replied to an ad in the paper yesterday for Edison records with the usual rare statement for $450. So I called wondering how many hundred there were for that price. There were 5 records. I dug a little deeper but nothing special. The guy was trying to tell me how old they were and they were a deal "at less than $100 each." I tried to explain they were fairly common, I had hundreds of them and they were probably only worth a few dollars each but he got mad and hung up on me. ________________________________ From: Steven Medved <[email protected]> To: Phono-l <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 27, 2009 4:35:02 PM Subject: RE: [Phono-L] phono on ebay Hi Dan, How about this one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=320344859582 Steve > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Phono-L] phono on ebay > Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2009 15:03:11 -0500 > > http://cgi.ebay.com/PHONOGRAPH-GRAMOPHONE-HIS-MASTER-VOICE-MODEL-203_W0QQitemZ280314618257 > > > Maybe he's hoping for a Japanese collector who still has money to burn? > > I wonder if the big cat comes with it > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jay Horenstein" <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Friday, February 27, 2009 2:41 PM > Subject: [Phono-L] phono on ebay > > > > Can anyone please tell me if the HMV Orthophinic model 203 listed on ebay > > is > > anything special? > > _______________________________________________ > Phono-L mailing list > http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org From [email protected] Sun Mar 1 07:20:59 2009 From: [email protected] (bill shaw) Date: Sun Mar 1 07:27:01 2009 Subject: [Phono-L] phono on ebay In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Maybe they have a edison > From: [email protected] > Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2009 20:32:33 -0500 > Subject: Re: [Phono-L] phono on ebay > To: [email protected] > > It is the same mentality of people that say in their ebay ad: > > This fine and rare phonograph still has the original needle, and it is still > in good sha...@#@ > > There are so many people out there that are in it to turn a quick sale. > Anyone in this hobby that wants to learn and become knowledgeable do not hang > up > or walk away from someone trying to help them out. > > Keep on smiling and keep the speed limit at 78...rpms, that is! > > Brantley > Williston, S.C. > _______________________________________________ > Phono-L mailing list > http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live?

There is a PAL that I saw last night and a off brand that I can't remember that was there a couple of days ago. They had the photos, these people just don't know anything about what they are trying to sell. It pays to do your home work not only for the seller but for the buyer as well. Like the poor guy that got the wonder? PAL portable that just needed a little work for $29?.00 I wanted so bad to email him but ebay sure has stopped us from doing that now, I wonder why?

Now for a different problem but could also be related to the above. I need help from somebody on speaking? terms with the? person that has been telling lies and spreading rumors about me. Somebody has been spreading lies about me on a board that I liked in England and I may have to quit because of this kind of problem. This is the 2nd board that I have had to leave because of some low life that still lives with his mommy has nothing better to do than to start rumors. I am getting a little sick of this type of a problem, I started collecting records and joining the forums in an attempt to take my mind off of my medical problems but then this starts up. If anybody knows this person and you are on speaking terms with him please ask him to stop with the harassment. I really think whoever is doing this on some sick level enjoys harassing those who are disabled. If anybody is on speaking terms with this person that may be doing this to me please ask him to stop. Thank you Bill armyvet From [email protected] Mon Mar 2 04:09:55 2009 From: [email protected] ([email protected]) Date: Mon Mar 2 04:15:18 2009 Subject: [Phono-L] retarmysgt (William) post regarding Gramophoneshane Message-ID: <[email protected]> Hello I don't really want to do this or get involved but I feel compelled to and somehow allow myself to be drawn into the web of deceit perpetuated by a few people who seem to have too much time on their hands. In direct response to William's post of the 1st March, i would first of all confirm that "gramophoneshane" is the same Shane running the Australian gramophones board recently set up. However, I take issue with William's assumption that the person who is harrassing him (if anyone actually is) is this same Shane. I have been in correspondence with Shane for many years and he is a dedicated collector from Australia who has been a member of many of the online forums for some time now. I have never been given any reason to doubt him and when I read what?has been?alleged he has said to William, I doubt seriously William is talking about the right person here? I would also like to add that contrary to what has already been said, there is no evidence that "rumours" are abounding on the UK gramophone forum either concerning either William or anyone else. I moderate this forum and if anything is currently abounding, it is member apathy and nothing else! I'm afraid William is sadly mistaken on both counts. I just wanted to clear this up once and for all and I will not add anything further on this unpleasantness.

I have NOT harrassed you. I have NOT spread rumours or lies about you, and quite frankly, I am getting fed up with this kind of nonsense on these forums. I am the one being harrassed by a?couple people from Boston, and it all seems to come down to a youtube video I posted, showing the removal & installation of a main spring. I've obviously upset these "repairmen" by showing how easy spring removal is. Now Bill, you have my email address. Please use it with proof of these accusations you are making. I am on a carers pension because I look after my elderly mother, who is close to disabled herself, so why would I harrass anyone because they are in a wheel chair?
