Frankie Crocker Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Does the leading bidder know the US version is easily obtainable? There have been several on eBay in the last year, but not in mint condition, going for reasonable money. Great shame I'm Your Pimp never got a US release on 45rpm. I can remember chatting to Russ in his Wigan store about the possibilities of a double A side release but this sadly never came to pass on UK vinyl although the opportunity must have been there. The Skull Snaps also have another decent release listed in Manship #6 as a DJ copy, but Didn't I Do It To You has turned up a couple of times as a light- brown issue. The Skull Snaps, like some other big late 70's artists, seem to be in demand again recently judging from the competitive bidding. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

All the brown issue copies of 'Didn't I Do It To You' I've seen have a DJ stamp on them - did it get a proper release Re - 'My Hang Up Is You' it's quite possible people are bidding on it for the flip side which was the in-demand track for funk collectors - either way it's still a ridiculous price 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) :hatsoff2:I bet no one on this site can make it over a ton, DAVE K I sold a M- UK issue of Skull Snaps on ebay in May this year for $192.50 / £115-ish. Five different bidders over $150 (all from the UK). I was as surprised as anyone. Edited September 1, 2014 by Sebastian Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
