Jazzy D's Soul Notes

This is the excellent feedback I get on my Discogs selling page.

Well, dear readers, I did three visits in the end. As well as the two pub visits I did a techy phone visit in Chatham today. So mister productivity strikes again even on a half day lol!

It has a glorious sunny day too.

Just a sporty T-shirt, well, sports vest, and shorts today.

Tan is coming on real nice now.

It is quite a humid night so as I have no work tomorrow I might binge watch again.

Been quite busy on selling on Discogs and eBay too. I have six items to post on Monday!

YAY!

And if it is just as sunny an warm as it has been today then I shall be out in the garden sunbathing and reading a book tomorrow,.

Anyone wants to purchase CD's from me my store site is -

Oh and here is a pic of one of my bookcases.

Another middling weather day in which it vacillates between sunshine and showers. I have just one visit today here in my home town and another football pools one. Then i shall pop over to Faversham Meanwhile i need to look for suitable packing material to post off an LP i sold on Discogs - one which i found for a quid and sold it for £7 plus postage.
That LP is "Ten Per Cent" by Double Exposure - a classic disco soul album on Salsoul Records.

Double Exposure - Ten Per Cent

In an earlier post, i said i had trouble with one customer on Discogs. It is still going on. He gave me negative feedback so i gave him negative feedback in return over a CD he wanted to buy, and which he thought that postage was included. it clearly states on the site it is not. Then he tries to dictate an offer price on an item that i did offer with the tag "make an offer" , which as a seller you do so, rather than a fixed priced.

He has sent me another email today -

"I made an offer and asked a question which you didn't answer. It even says
"make offer" on one of Discog's web pages.
Anyway your shipping charges are $7 more than the guy's in the Netherlands.
I saw that you lowered the total cost a bit but I wasn't sure if all the
art work would still be included. I have plenty of cd cases.
Try to be more rational the rest of your life. You won't regret it."


(I know, what cheek!)

so i replied thus -

"This is because the Dutch mail system is cheaper than the British , since i have a colleague in Breda ,so that is how i know. Secondly, i really do take offence at the insinuation of not being rational. I would not send out any CD with the artwork missing , and sir, philosophy was my major subject at university, so please do not talk to me about being rational in the rest of my life.It is that some people do make you feel like banging your head against a wall. I am finding this conversation a bit tiresome, and i really am fed up with having to deal with people who do find the Discogs site difficult. It is not. Each seller can choose whether they want "Make an Offer" on items they sell or not. I , as a rule, do not, unless i specify it in the listing. The site is not difficult, it is you sir.

I hope that this is the very last time i have to reply to you, and FYI , i have banned you from from trying to buy from me in "

Think i will crawl into a rock under a hole now. "Hey Dalek, can you exterminate this troublesome person".

Calm down Dave, get your Vaughan Williams CD's out, put on headphone, and chill out.

Well we didn't get snow but it's just wet and cool with some precipitation. Doing a mystery shop early evening down at The Pavilion Tavern,where Rick,Chris and i went that evening some weeks back. They still have the very cheap Carlsberg lager and as lager is on the brief i shall have one of those.

Sold another CD on Discogs over night, a guy in Japan this time. Previous sale went to one guy in Germany. Added quite alot of CDs onto the list last night anyway and shall do some more today. I am certain the bigger the inventory the more sales i shall get, and i am getting decent prices too. £15 for the last one and £12 for this one.

I have also put on both "OUI Review" and "Document,Soviet Jazz in the 80s" on Discogs as these two demand big money, £125 and £80 respectively!

Almost reached the four pound mark on Homepages. Not certain how it works but each morning i check my account to see how much my searches have earned me.Spiffing idea though.

I have decided to give up buying Wire magazine as i no longer read it and at ovber four quid is one expense i can happily do without. I shall just keep buying Shindig as it sems more relevant ot my current needs.I was a regualr Wire reader of many years standing,and perhaps old issues may be worth selling off as the space they take up is something else io can do witghout. Sometimes it is good to unburden yourself with the shackles of material things around you.

Going over to Uckfield next Tuesday to do another mystery shop and it will give me time to peruse the charity shops in that little town. I usually find something good there.
