For sale: The Ascots - She Did / Hip Talk - Bethlehem - Black Issue - E+ £300 inc post as a paypal gift.

My copy still has my original cover-up label stuck on it (pritt stick) I won't mess with it, i'll leave it up to whoever buys it.

Will give it a chance on here before putting it on eBay.

(Not the actual copy shown below, that's for reference to show the selling price recently)

BUT WHY????

I've always wondered why some people glue c/u labels directly on the records, rather than just cello-tape round the edge to the dead wax.

I'm serious, I really would like to know just what the motive or reason is.

[Markw]

Agree. And were I considering making an offer for this record, no way in the world would I wish to offer anywhere near £300 when the damage to the label has not been quantified.

[Mr Outsider]

Would never stick a label over another with tape or anything else. Then again, don't partake in cover ups. Good record either way.

[Jodie]

Well, it wasn't my cover up, I was told the name on strict instructions to keep it quiet. I stuck the label on this way because it's easy to remove and not forgetting...it's my record and I had no intention of selling it, i'm only selling it because I really need the money and it's fetching a good price.

I've already taken off the label on one side and it looks absolutely fine, I can do the other side and post up scans for anyone who wants to see them.

Jodie, I remember trying to get a look at the label when you played this one night at Mervs' night in Stafford (must be a few years ago now?).

Great record!

[Jodie]

Haha! Which explains why I had a label stuck on it!

[Guest Nils]

Soundwise worth every penny...great great record. Fetched 550 Dollars or even more last time it went through ebay as far as I remember..

[Jodie]

That's exactly what i'm doing now, sticking it on eBay!
