About four years ago I found the Fascinations 'Girls Are Out To Get You' on a Stateside demo in a Salvation Army in Lancing, West Sussex.

 

I'd almost given up looking through record boxes in charity shops as they only ever seemed to have 80s pop records.

 

And in the same box was an original Billy Butler 'Right Track' on Okeh, Darrell Banks on Stateside and the AdLibs 'Boy From New York City' on Red Bird.

Tidy little haul there stu,

He's on about the pink or yellow label Ted not the lookalikes

The pink 1s come up on e-bay from time to time  seen a few

That takes some beating, when was that Sean, recently?

If so gives us all hope

 

2000 Steve.

 

I'd been in the guy's store a couple of years earlier (in Baltimore) so knew he had a lot of old originals. When he put a bunch of Buy It Now's up for 12 bucks and listed 'I Have Searched' (the flipside).

 

I hit the BIN button like lightening.

 

Sent him the $12 (cash - Pre-Paypal days) and crossed my fingers until it arrived two weeks later...

 

Not Pink,

 

Not Yellow,

 

Stone, Store Stock, Mint Original.

 

Now only played twice lol

 

 

Sean

you sure it wasn't one of those dodgy ones Sean check the print if I were you

 

This was long before the PK dodgy ones Ted.

 

2000.

 

A genuine steal, I'd have said...

 

And probably the NS bargain of the 21st Century, thus far!

Toby Legend Mala Demo has been mentioned earlier in the thread.  I bought one $6 ebay buy it now + maybe $6.50 shipping back in 2008 when the exchange rate was around $2 to the £.  The whole deal cost a little over £6 for M- with just a drill hole in the label.  For the internet/ebay shopper that period in time, and prior, was great.  Very easy to find stuff from the comfort of your arm chair and often where there was one 45 you'd find more.
