Stockholmsoulfox Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) Variations " I Wanna Take You Uptown" Right On Records. Looking for a VG++/Ex copy at a reasonable price PM me please.

Louis Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 This record seems to have shot up in value lately with one going on ebay in July for over £300 and one today going for over £400. I had one in my sales box for £20 about 4 years ago, but no one interested. Still got it, but won't be selling till next year when I plan to get rid of all my vinyl. Always thought it had a Temptations sound to it. I didn't think it was that rare, but obviously there is a demand now. Good luck Louis 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Stockholmsoulfox Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Its certainly not a £300 record in terms of rarity, it's relativley common but popular again given its uptempo funky feel . A couple of copies have gone for high money on ebay recentley but I missed one a few months back for $156 which I think is about right even given current popularity? Would rate it circa £100-£125 as a reasonable price from a buyers perspective? Pete Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Rudzy Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Another Amazing Anomaly in the world of northern soul. Probably a lot rarer than we all imagined Edited August 13, 2014 by RUDZY Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post Liljimmycrank Posted August 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Probably a lot rarer than we all imaginedNo it's not. Just two random auction results (one from a seller renowned for achieving the extraordinary on their auctions), coupled with a rising demand and people cashing in on their copies as a result. It doesn't have the quality to stay at that top price level in my opinion and will settle back down. You only have to go back 3-4 months and regularly see copies selling for £80! Plenty about, and you'll see plenty more with folk cashing in (fair play to them). But have a little patience, wait for the bubble to burst and buy it for £80-120 again Azza Edited August 14, 2014 by LilJimmyCrank 7 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Rudzy Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 You talk a lot of sense Little Johnny, This has happened on a few occasions with various tunes. However not always the case and sometimes a record can go HIGHER & HIGHER. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I've sold three copies on here...two in 2011 for £25 and £30 the other last year for £50. Used to be around at £8 and cheaper many moons ago...ex-Keb spin...good track and I'm sure the OP will get a copy at a reasonable price soon...like the instrumental myself! 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Stockholmsoulfox Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Thanks lads, it confirms my expectations on value and it's certainly one that laid unwanted in sales boxes a few years back. It's one of those Stafford spins that sounds even better with the years hence the post. As I said a reasonable price is what I'm after but there's no hurry.. The instrumental was the side I remember from first time round Flynny.. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 It might not be as rare as current prices suggest but there are not plenty of copies about for sale. Yes there has been half dozen lately but prior to that people were looking for some time to try and get copies. People are still looking without much joy so that tells you a different story. I'm not saying they aren't tucked away in collections, they are but they aren't on the open market. I sold my copy a few weeks ago and yes I got a very good price but I could have sold it half a dozen times for around the price I got. Yes the bubble will burst, demand will drop but until then...... 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Bearsy Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 A copy sold only a few days ago on EBay for $743.00 so I will happily sell you my copy for $500.00. Its in at least Ex condition and plays perfect. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Stockholmsoulfox Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 I think I've made my valuation clear lads. I understand of course that seeing a couple of vastly overpriced auctions go through is going to raise price expectations (temporarily?) so I'm happy to wait for the right price. One was on facebook Rare Soul Sales at £200 this week and hadn't sold last time I looked which suggests that that price is also to high.. It's been an interesting debate though... 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Morris Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Sold mine a few weeks ago for £60 which i thought was a fair price. Had it for a while but was just sat there on shelf so moved it on. Only had one enquiry when it was up for sale. Not my thing. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
