Bo Diddley Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 This latest one is a DEMO. I bought a demo from Mick Smith via EBAY which has an information/promo page which was originally glued to the sleeve. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

El Corol Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I think some people see a record in an auction and automatically think it must be hard to get if the said dealer has put it in an auction. Its not helped by dealers putting records that aren't that hard to get, into auctions instead of set sale, but of course we all know that by doing so potentially increases prices and therefore profit. Dealers also know what records they get asked for regularly, so if they get hold of a not so rare, but popular record then chances are it will go into an auction as there will be a chance of a couple of people battling it out and therefore pushing the price up. Also since the rise of ebay people have got used to auctions so more people see it as normal, which adds to the equation. I get put off buying some records if they go into auction as I can't be bothered, of course it can work the other way and you grab a bargain, but most times it doesn't seem that way to me, at least not anymore. You may be able to tell that I prefer a record for sale at a set price and then I can make a decision whether to buy or not (so long as someone else hasn't beat me to it). Sometimes change isn't always for the better. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
