Pete this beats your one on e bay , it's an old emi cool off one side game players the other wants £150 - still on

 

Acetate its a bit of metal with a thin layer of plastic - rare as duck

#1709 = i thought the plastic label Millionaires took the biscuit for 2015, but this tops it now...........X-over?

 

#1710 = OMG - for real?

An original would be??

2nd or 3rd issue even!

The Despenza one has just gone for £900 + so this would be £1500 i should expect (at least)

On a very lucky day £1500......but nearer 2 grand....and that`s for a very rare 2nd or even 3rd issue!

The Wand copy has the artist as THE IVORIES, both Despenza issues are credited to "IVORYS"

Anyone know why that is?

 

Quite possibly Wand wanted a more polished sounding name.

I'm not suggesting that this is anyway misleading or anything but legit, just another example

of what re-issues of classic tunes are fetching these days:

With this one well on its way to reaching the same figure soon..................

I pray this isn't gonna be one of your future Sunday morning random record plays Dave !

 

 

no but chances are someone will play it covered up on the northern scene

Got to agree with you

I don't like the tune so admit to being biased but if they moved the decimal point to the left so it was £13.91 then it might have been worth a Iook as an original.

At least the bootleg has the benefit of having a decent tune on the other side.

Jesus H Christ. Nearly £50 for a tacky looking pressing and the seller holds out for more. Madness.

As I understand this thread is highlighting the folly of some buyers.

I would add the proviso, that most of us sharing our thoughts here, are unhappy about

the number of modern day boots advertised on Ebay, of which this disc is possibly an example.

The fact is that if buyers were more sensible they could get a carver cut of these tunes to play

at home for much less than they are paying for some of these contemporary copies.

Although it's pretty obvious, possibly due to both the lack of expertise, that they

don't enforce it, in so far as Northern Soul Vinyl is concerned, the fact is that E-bay's trading policy

outlaws the sale of copies and boot's of any branded/copyrighted product.

Anyway I don't think anyone is actually accusing you of misleading buyers.

Some folks have more money than sense, good luck to you.

If you look at the seller's completed items, it seems that nobody does.

 

Well apart from 1 or 2 e.g.: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Temptations-Meet-The-Temptations-LP-Tamla-Motown-TML-11009-Soul-Northern-Cro-/111345607292

Thing is you aint said it  IS NOT an Original either..

 

 

That's the second issue too.

 

Yes the catalog number on the Decca originals were one digit different (i.e.the number above the Release Number F 13555).

i.e.ZDR 53438 NOT ZDR 55438

Mine is a defo the second issue, following Casino demand.

I have never seen an original though, come to that.

Here's one though:

https://www.45cat.com/record/f13555

 

Now that made me laugh out loud properly.  :lol:

LOL!! Stunning eh?? Actually it's not THAT bad LOL. But dare you play it? Pretty funky for a fat bird on a piano :) 

Oh Crap, I've done it again haven't I? Batten down the hatches  :dash2:

BTW not me that was selling it the quote is off the seller !! 

How about a copy of Billy Davis - Stanky in sales forum for the princely sum of £275, that made me laugh (comedy sale - get it?).  :wink:

Another punt for a Micky Moonshine described as original, here:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121590087911?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26ghostText%3D%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D121590087911%26_rdc%3D1

£92 bid and a punt at another copy of £125. Thought it booked at £50-60?

£40 tops, but hey! if someone wants to give me £125 for mine all well and good  :)

Seen it going quite recently (sure it was in sales on here) for £75, but i thought that that would be the top. I will admit to it being 1 of my favourite tracks.

Nothing wrong with "Name it" in my book either.

I wouldn't sell mine for £75 as I bought it off the shelf, when it was re-issued.

The latter being the point, these described as originals, are actually second issue

due to Casino demand.

Everyone has their price though and I can think of at least 3 tunes I'd like to buy for that hundred quid.
