pikeys dog Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Was looking at eBay, and a record I've always wanted but never had the opportunity to buy popped up at the bottom of another search. Clicked on the link, and it's from a seller in Las Vegas - record in question is Skip Jackson. Not sure if it's 100% kosher as he has several represses and custom label presses (ie San Fransican TKOs). So the question is, has Skip Jackson been pressed recently? https://www.ebay.com/sch/vashx22/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

So the question is, has Skip Jackson been pressed recently? It looks 100% kosher to me. Check out the serrated outer edge on the label, just like on the original. I don't know any pressing plants that do that nowadays. https://www.ebay.com/itm/280975026092 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Kris Holmes Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I have bought a lot of stuff off this guy before, never had an issue, he does sell some boots/represses but they are usually fairly obvious & he does have a lot of deadstock originals too.

Tiberius Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Probably has some connection to ebay seller "mischino", although that was a lady not a guy if I remember correctly - https://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=mischino&ftab=AllFeedback&seeallfeedback=See%20All%20Feedback&myworld=true I think there's been a thread on here about the Prix stuff, & possibly some of the other records, in the past. It's fair to say there is some confusion as there's never any mention in the listings of re-issue, boot etc, although I echo the comment above about some items being deadstock originals.

Sebastian Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) bloody nora, HOW MUCH?, $200 for a £25 record, am i THAT out of touch? During the past 5-6 years clean copies has constantly been fetching $150+. 3-4 years ago it was even higher ($200-$300).
