AlanB Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Can anyone advise what's pushing up the price of this pack, currently £221 for 10 late 70s/early 80s Tamla Motown UK releases: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Batch-of-10-7-inch-Singles-Tamla-Motown-Records-TMG-Series-/190803854036?pt=UK_Records&hash=item2c6ccbc2d4 Obviously I'm missing something, because If I had seen any of the records in a charity shop, I wouldn't have bought them! Thanks in advance. Edited March 15, 2013 by AlanB Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Paul McKay Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 The Syreeta 45 was never actually issued and is reasonably hard to acquire - but still not worth £221 for the lot IMHO Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Pinch Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 when i saw this thread i immediatley thought about the syreeta.....and its in there.....still not worth that kind of money although some do collect demo`s from this period and theres 3 in there though individuallly only worth a fiver each Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
JOE TORQUAY Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 i heard there were only 50 syreeta ever made making it probably the rarest ever uk motown , so for people who collect uk motown singles it's a must have isn't it. it only takes two people with a few bob to spot this and the price will take off, Joe. ps. i sold mine for £180 a few years back Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Paul McKay Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Well Joe you did well - even Manship only got £177 when he auctioned it. Mine cost £75 from an SS member. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
JOE TORQUAY Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 i bought it in a box of 100+ all mint- motown it had syreeta and the bobby womack / so many sides of you p/s ( sold that for £100 ) AMONG OTHERS AND THE NUMBER 1000=TMG / KIM WESTON / MARVELETTES which i'm keeping. never thought much of the syreeta apart from it's rareness, Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
AlanB Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Well Joe you did well - even Manship only got £177 when he auctioned it. Mine cost £75 from an SS member. It seems to be creeping up in price. Sales on Popsike: £84 (2009), £123 (2011), £194 (2012). Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
