Simon, hang in there. I have a feeling that the seller may be a bit disorganized and it sounds like his communication skills are sorely lacking but if I got mine here in the USA then I am sure that you will as well.

Fully agree. Seller posted my green copy on Feb 21 (according to Post Office stamp) but told me that was done Feb 17. Got it yesterday only. You´ll get it soon Simon :wink:

Thanks guys!
I know it's probably coming, but it's sort of annoying :|

Soon Soon Soon (a bit of Kevin Ayers will distract me)

I still haven't got my green one yet, despite 2 emails to seller (1st reply "definitely sent", 2nd reply "sorry, sending today" - last week...)
I'm holding off on the paypal dispute thing, but it'll be the only option soon.

BTW I think the two sellers are the same person - musicireland07's paypal email address is spabear58@yahoo.co.uk.
I got my green copy last week and there was no info to show who it was from other than UK on the customs tag. He had no paperwork, reciept, or anything else. I am still waiting for my black copy from the other seller, so I assume that the green is from musicireland07. When I paid for the green copy, my paypal reciept showed payment going to musicireland07@yahoo.co.uk ?! How about that? Another Velvet mystery? :roll:

And they all seem to be being posted from South London :wink:

Mine was paid for with Paypal on Feb. 24th, it was posted on Feb 27th, and I received it on March 3rd. That is quick service. Mine had a Paypal packing slip attached in a clear envelope with the sellers name and address torn off (I don't blame him for that). As long as we all get our orders, his (or her) anonymity is not an issue.

My black copy arrived today. Same packaging as the green, Packed in same cardboard envelope with cardboard inserts, album cover and lp separately placed in package. This one did have a Paypal reciept with return info torn off, This guy wants to remain a mystery. Ok by me, I got what I paid for. I think earlier posting alluding to both dealers Englanf & Ireland being the same guy seems to be true, even though i have 2 different email addresses. Enjoy :bowdown:
