I would like to know how the frick this guy is turning up all these 45's. I have seen some of his auctions the last year and they are stacked with rare shit. I was told that there were only a couple copies of Black Aces Of Soul out there and this guy has auctioned two this year alone.

    word through the grapevine is that he recently pillaged a mid-Michigan jukebox supply place - dudes up there are still salty

    spending 2 billion $$$ on direct mail gets you some records, it's not exactly a secret

    i said it before here but i can't understand how direct mail would be cost efficient. the amount of shit leads it would stir up would drive you crazy.

    i've also noticed in my gmail box i guess there's a lot of contextual record talk buried in those emails so i often get paid search ads We Buy Records from some crusters in Long Island and Amoeba. I often click on them just to cost those idiots 50 cents.

    suckas need bodyguards

    it's true


  • why the frick would he take bodyguards to Detroit? Dude carrying a suitcase full of money? Is funkyou! that guy Chily C and that other young guy?

  • SoulhawkSoulhawk 3,197 Posts
    don't ax me, you're the one that said he needed to be reguarded!

  • jinx74jinx74 2,287 Posts
    cause the geto is skary and people need hand holding

  • i'm not a big fan of guns, but maybe he should consider packing the 4 pounder.

    the scariness of Detroit is overstated - people here are so broke they think twice about using a bullet

  • i heard ya. Do you know if funkyou! is one guy, or is it those two guys on the myspace account?

  • the scariness of Detroit is overstated

    for the most part, it really is a huge ghost town -- you can drive all over the place and see NO ONE outside, walking, hanging out, etc. so you're right to an extent, but damn are there spots that i would rather not have to drive through --

    delray, brightmoor, pilgram village, highland park, east side -- like harper & van dyke area, etc

    on the real tho, scary shit can pop off at any time - my landlord lived in Indian Village - just beautiful old homes over there - he got robbed and pistolwhipped at 2 PM on a Sunday in his own backyard - 2 guys in ski masks & guns came over the back fence when he was chilling on his patio with his wife & infant son

    it's no joke

    I was under the impression that a lot of his big ticket pieces are on consignment from various collectors around the globe.

    So when dude's got a dozen or so level 10 rarities up, its not really because of some mythological digging maneuvers. He's just the stateside version of johnmanship

    Jason Koenig's been in the game a while now for a young dude and he's got the re-up.

    I have confidence that Moark won't rest until he has ebayed every last VG Jethro Tull lp in the whole SD metro area
