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? 

Looks like it may be the boot with a photocopy label stuck on

 

here is the original listing

Gotta say you dont see that blue boot too often. pretty scare

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

7 day listing, only 3 bidders. One bidder with 17 bids all on the same day, looks like they were trying to outbid the other high bidder who won it..

It's a boot.

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 

It's a bootleg.

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.

i,ve had that blue boot twice, but its not widely known,.. unlike the common orange one

Looks like it was one I sold in 2011 - just checked and I sold it for £10 - It was just an orange boot with scans of originals stuck on, and sold as such.

Here's the pic from my original listing on eBay, circa 2011

 

 

Positive it's the very same copy.

It was a stuck on label, I spoke to the person who bought it today, he didn't read the description

This is a proper one from the box

If you look even closer, someone has gone over the thicker bits of the logo with a silver pen...

The one linked in post #1 didn't mention any stuck on labels.

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. 

 

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

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?

Maybe not but it did have them, according to the buyer - he should know

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

Sorry madame. Deffo not into counterfeit records that have been pritt-sticked with false labels. Designed to deceive.

 

I used to be called Frankie too.......

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.
