one or all of the following:

a) it was mislisted with no category information at all
b) it was trashed (but this record usually shows up that way)
c) it's a mary wells cover and not as good as mary wells, although decent
d) it's not rare

A mislisted, trashed, not rare record, even if it's decent, won't really get bids.

If it was "girl I can't forget" I would be flipping out. Still need that one.

dammit, was it on ebay? still need that, I don't know why it's so much rarer than the other clown 45s. I have a bunch of their optimum 45s, I have to check if I have that one.

oh yeah, there was one on ebay recently, with a starting bid of $500. It put me off but I put in a bid near the start and it went higher.

I cant find a trace of the copy I was referring to..I could of swore that it sold in the range of $275 or so.anyhow I could be mistaken maybe its the same copy that sold for over $500

This is my fave from the group...by a mile...and also a Motown cover (Kim & Marvin) cover version.
(Not for sale).

I got one of them too Flynny,,actually heard it from a tape you gave to Martin Harland or something,,damm tricky to locate aswell. Nice one.

i figure this was so cheap as the seller would not take bids outside of usa and would not accept any questions regarding the listing...
at 10c I was happy to put in a bid but was blocked and then blocked when I tried to email the seller... that pretty much limits the sale potential
