pippy Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Eh? Why do I have the strongest feeling of deja vu?............................ So you don't believe it is a 1993 '1960 Classic'? P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The random and multiple PM's, which you seem to loose interest in when the recipient doesn't bite but does reply have made me very suspicious about this. I'll be frank, I think it's a scam.

pippy Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 ...I'll be frank, I think it's a scam... TBH I don't quite see how it's a scam, Farns, but it IS a bit bizzarre. In an earlier exchange of about a dozen e-mails between myself and the OP I've seen around 10 snaps of the LP in question and it's a 1993 '1960 Classic'. But why on Earth the OP is hereabouts asking again surprises me. Looking for a second, third, fourth opinion? Looking for someone, perhaps, who might suggest it's more of a rarity than a 1993 '1960 Classic' and, therfore, more valuable? Beats me, I must admit. If I cared at all I'd share the pictures sent to me and explain, in great detail, why it is what it is. But I won't. I'm in a huff....... P.

Guest Farnsbarns Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Oh dear, well I hope you cheer up by Monday! \:D/ Go on, send me the pics, or just show em to me on your phone next week. I'm in no doubt that you're right. Just some extra info... I have no idea about the content but this chaps first 2 threads were deleted, it seems. Curiouser and curiouser.

L5Larry Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 ... serial number is either 9 0949 ... I guess he'll just keep asking until someone tells him it's a 1959 worth a million bucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
