  Yes. I was very happy with the three pieces of vinyl that I got from
Mark. The records (Stasis's 'Disco 4000' and 'Circuit Funk', Otherworld
Collective's 'Artificial World') were in very good condition, well worth
the money I paid for them. My Stasis collection nears completion, thanks
to Mark's integrity. If anyone is willing to sell their copy of Stasis's
'The Sound of Stasis' on Multiplex, let me know.
  There is always an element of suspicion in making net.deals. I have
been ripped off a couple of times, but I still maintain an optimistic
view.
  If anyone is interested, I still have Machine Codes B, C, D and E for
sale. In addition I would like to get rid of a substantial amount of old
Harthouse Germany 12" - I will supply a list to persons interested via
e-mail. I have some other items on sale as well, but I will post information
on that subject later.
  As for ridiculous amounts of money paid for a record, the most expensive
record I have ever bought was Caustic Window's 'Joyrex J9i EP' picture disc
for 100 UKP a couple of years ago. Although the record itself is not that
good, for a RePHLeX completist it is essential. Apart from the two early
IG-88 and Q-Chastic EP, my RePHLeX collection is well nigh complete and
probably rather valuable as well. I do not remember the person who sold me
the record back then, but he was true to his word as well when I met him
in London.
  But I digress. Enough.

  Cheers,
