Thinking of buying a copy but read cautionary tales about it.

quite a few for sale on discogs but am told that the yellow label Highland stock copy has been booted. Is there a way of identifying a genuine from the boot?

looking at the promo copy, the admirable Brad Hales has a VG+ copy at $80 which sounds fair. However I would prefer near mint if poss. There is an NM copy but the guy wants £250 for it. Is that a realistic price? Popsike and discogs sales history place it at half that and lower.

any thoughts for a willing but troubled buyer?

should be around £100 for a mint or near mint £250 sounds ambitious to me

Like the flip on this this one allot, ‘need of love’  great 45.  As far as I know Originals should have MR stamp, and I’ve only ever seen it on styrene, mines a white demo which actually looks like a boot to be honest, I read somewhere that when it was discovered it was concidered a boot, only later that it was authenticated so to speak.
