Looking for "Nights at the Keystone V.3"

[Abution II]

I have volumes 1 and 2 of Dexter Gordon's "Nights at the Keystone", but V.3 has proved elusive. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

I've only got Vol 2, Abutillon, and I love it; so you've got one more than I; but there's some wacko on half.com who is offering it for $100. I assume he added an extra zero there, and meant $10. B)

I don't think that's a typo. There was an auction a couple of weeks ago where Volumes 2 and 3 went for over $100 although I believe Volume 1 went for about $25. Go figure.

Brad, cool avatar! I found that image on the web about six months ago and used on a cdr cover (from videotaped performances.) Really nice (odd, but in a way fitting) painting!

Is that so?

Okay everyone: you can have mine for $75!!

Now how am I going to find Vols 1 and 3??

Lon,

Sent you an email.

i'd prefer not to be called a wacko on a board i visit daily.

Fired one back at ya.

Keystone 3 is the one that I don't have.

100 bucks! I'm not that hungry for it!

Can't take half my posts seriously, Kulu, but thanks for owning up. I shall now undercut you with $95!

I'm serious: if these sessions go so high then I'd be happy to work out a deal with someone and offer mine for significantly less.

Kulu will get his $100 one day perhaps...

CS 500, why don't you contact the losing bidder in some of those auctions. They might be interested. Here are the links: Dexter Volume 3 and Dexter Volume 2.

I just saw that all three volumes were listed yesterday. Here's the link for Volume 1. All opening bids at $9.99.

[connoisseur series500]

Thanks for the suggestion, Brad. It's not like I badly need to rid myself of this cd! I've got it offered on half for $75, but I still think that's too high. I'll have to lower that to make it halfway reasonable.

To me, no cd is worth that much and I'd be happy to do what I can to contribute to lower prices. B)

actually i was joking about being called a wacko. it just doesn't come across that way in writing, and i'm not too swift with the smileys.

what i like about half.com is i can put anything i want at any price and just let it sit there. i can continue to listen to it until someone comes along and pays my price.

if no one ever pays my price then i am out nothing.

i do have 1 (big) problem with half.com, and i hope someone can help me.

i made my first sales in october, and they were supposed to deposit a few hundred dollars in my checking accont on 11/7. their records are showing that the money has been deposited, but i have not received the money. i have checked their site and there is no customer service/contact info on the site anyweher. i can use any help anyone might be able to give.

thanks

Well, same here, but if they do it on a board I don't visit daily, I might miss it...

I'll sell it for $25.

This is very worrisome to me.

I don't bother to keep up with my sales on half.com and just assume that they get things right.

Does this mean we should be checking all the time? Oops, I think I already know the answer to that one.

Let us know, Bob, if you are able to get hold of anyone over there and inform us about the proceedures.

Thanks

[kulu se mama]

happy to report that i did receive my money.

apparently it takes a lot longer to get paid than half leads you to believe.

they deposit on the 15th and 31st, but they state it could take 7 additional days.

then they also say that it can take up to 3 more business days for it to show up in my account.

well, they deposited on 10/31 add 7 days and it's 11/7, then add 3 business days not counting saturday, sunday, and verteran's day, and you get 11/12.

the next deposit is scheduled for 11/15, considering weekends and holidays, i might have it in time for christmas.

one complaint i have about ebay/half is that for a multi-billion dollar company - they are impossible to contact.

they should at the very least have an 800 customer service number.

you can finally email them, once you log through about 10 pages of "help." after answer question after question, you finally get to a page that says, "i am still having a problem - contact customer service." considering the money they are making off of seller's - it should be a lot easier/quicker.

[connoisseur series500]

Well said, Bob and thanks for letting us know.

These big companies are awful as far as their unwillingness to receive calls. They purposely place barriers out to sequester the less determined and hardy callers. The big companies just don't want to put customer service people on the payroll. It's sickening.

BTW, isn't half closing down at the end of the year??
