Posted

I mentioned it last week just as it was ending, someone else said they had the same pressing and it didn't make £20!

So the drinks are on you sat.night at Bournemouth Uni then Vince !!! :beer::beer:

Seriously tho' i've never heard of any pressing going for that much.

Tomagoes I Really Love You second press has jumped in price. Sold two copies recently one went for £62 the other £40 ish just goes to show the fluctuating prices of reissues in the strange Northern Soul world :rolleyes:

Frankie & johnny real nasty 70's lookalike £67.00

Gloria Jones "tainted Love" Red Boot £52.00

Detroit Soul Lookalike Boot (the other two are obvious boots but this one i even mentioned in add!!)............£94!!

Yes, the first boot was obvious, not a repro, IIRC it said "Dottys from Detroit" at the top?

The Trends on ABC, a thread in "Look At Your Box" - a boot fetched $267 which at the time was £170 - £180. :swoon:

I can only presume the buyer thought it an original.

I hope he got a refund.

Hi Glyn, but this is madness, i just cannot rationalise this sort of crazed buying.....i mean it's not an original.............more fool the buyers i say, it's akin to buying chicory and serving it as the finest Columbian bean..............excl.gif
