England schools v Rep of Ireland at Brighton

[garyspain]

Can anybody help me get a programme for England v Rep of Ireland schools at Brighton last thursday. I got letdown for it.

Can anybody help here?

Tried the schools org, a Brighton collector. Letdown by 2 different people - one was meant to go and the other failed to get any programmes.

Try Steve Harrington

thanks sent him a note on ebay.

Well emailed Steve. he replied that it was a sellout very rare etc and would be more than face value and make him an offer.

I offered £10 sunday lunchtime. Still awaiting an answer but he stuck it up on ebay that night so think I got my answer.

Luckily the Irish collector who was meant to go to the game but couldn't seems to have sourced some from another Brighton source.

Hope it sells for less on ebay. Won't be bidding anyway. Thought I made a decent offer. Appreciate we've never dealt before and no problem paying a bit over the odds after the fact when letdown by somebody else but thought a refusal or even an offer of the programme at a higher price would have been appropriate rather than just stick it on ebay.

Gary, have you tried John Wells? He's a member on here. As for the original offer, there's always one, isn't there?

[garyspain]

John I sent an email to John Wells immediately as we know each other from old. I may have an old email for him though as it was about three years ago we last corresponded. do you know his id on here?

[Auchinleckian]

Gary, I think he just posts under his name if my memory serves me well? Mind you, it tends not to nowadays......He has advertised articles for sale recently, can't remember if they're programmes or other memorabilia though. Shouldn't be too hard to find....

He'll have more than one and will be back to snatch your hands off if he doesn't get more than £10 on ebay. Absolute disgrace, it's not as though he's going to get three figures........it's just greed for a couple of quid.

I'll PM you Johns email address mate

Gray, he posted in "shirts and other football memorabilia" on April 30th, first page.

Deary me, this sort of behaviour amongst fellow collectors is frankly out of order.

Hope you get your copy sorted Gary.
