Kicking myself I didn't see this last week, but it looks to be an OG Tamala Lewis sold for a fraction of what it normally does?

Can anyone confirm if it's not a boot from the pic?  If it is real, has demand gone that far down or just a fluke?

Initial thoughts....

Nothing to suggest this is a photocopied label in the description

What blue boot? didn't know there was one....

Why so few views for such a potentially big ticket item? Was it a short time listing?

Gutted if i'd missed this..........big time want

If you look closely, looks like the upper portion of the label has some black on it (which would indicate it was a scan).  

However, I always thought the boot had a raised/ribbed edge

I've never seen either in person though so no idea  :unsure:

I'd say it's a boot , if you look at the inner rim of the label around the hole it looks a  little oval and miss sharpened especially on the b side . I could be wrong . regards S.

Ahhhh... I feel better about missing it then  :)   Still, $170 for a boot?  Seems a bit much when the Orange boot usually goes for $25-$30.

Stuck on labels really suck... In the long run, this has got to be the worst thing that could happen to record collecting. At least you (usually) know where you stand when you buy a plain bootleg. Selling counterfeit records with fake labels added, and marketed to deceive the unwary is bound to cause problems somewhere along the way.

Says the guy with a counterfeit name.  :lol:

 

Unless of course your actual name is Frankie Crocker in which case I apologise unreservedly.  :P

Who says I'm a guy? Now you really have hurt my feelings... Back on topic, what's your view on selling and buying counterfeit records that have had false labels Pritt Sticked on?

So is there an actual blue look-a-like bootleg or are all those copies simply the orange boot with a stuck on label?

So did you have the op too? I like a person who is frank. I know a girl in Wales called Nia which would be a good name for someone called Ian. My nan used to get her sausages from Dewhirsts. 

Please darling, no more apologies.
