 First of all I always knew this was a dodgy auction house but unfortunately I needed some Michael Jackson memorabilia. So I kept an eye on the autographed LPs and singles and albums etc and kept asking does this or that come with a certificate of authentication? No no no no. I 'accidentally' won a signed lp. Someone had outbid me for it and I just went with it. But they must have cancelled their bid last minute because I ended up winning it. Before paying I got a PSA/DNA Quick opinion and it failed and I told them there is no way I'm paying you for this. Why the heck are they selling unlikely to be genuine stuff in the first place I do not know. So they were cool about this and the signed thriller lp is back up on auction if anyone is interested. Haha. Anyway the trouble began when I bid and won a rare limited edition pop up Dangerous album which is supposed to be 1 of 4500 GOLD COLOURED first printings of the album. I bought this because surely not much could go wrong with buying a cd. Boy, was I wrong. So I won this thing. Paid 30 pounds for shipping alone which is RIDICULOUS but I had no time to argue etc. I received the package about 2 weeks later didn't open it till 2 weeks after that because I was not home. I open the package (pitifully wrapped and packaged by the way, for 30 pounds I expect gold trimmings on the box)and what do I find? A plain old ordinary BLACK cd which is NOT limited edition which is NOT what a paid almost 100 pounds for. Now this isn't even the worst part that made my blood boil. The worst part is when I spoke to the 'auction people' and they tried to convince me that there is nothing wrong with the black cd that this is perfectly normal and sent me the link to some other poor sod who also has one in their collection. The second worst part is when the not very smart auction person tried to then turn the entire story on its head and accused me of swapping the cd in for a basic black one myself. Typical con artist strategy. So now of course he has not communicated with me at all since. The invaluable auction site that I purchased this through has also been incredibly unhelpful since it is their responsibility to get the auction houses to contact buyers. Oh and of course I paid for this purchase through money transfer so I'll never be able to get my money back. I'm just lucky I didn't but anything too expensive like one of the Michael Jackson drawings which is what I really intended to purchase in the first place. This story is probably really difficult to follow. Let me summarise it like this: SIMON PARR'S ARE AN EXTREMELY DODGY ADDICTION HOUSE DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THEM YOU ARE SURE TO BE DISAPPOINTED. Also SIMON PARR'S ARE RUN BY CON ARTISTS. Thank you for your attention.
