Soulaction Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I think even by the standards of prices Johns auction can raise, this one takes the biscuit. Jay D Martin By Yourself Tower the more common white dj copy. An incredible £1337.00p was the end price. Thought Sam Dees Lonely for you baby was pricey at £950.00P odd. But the Jay D Martin price is astonishing. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Winsford Soul Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Nothing much surprises me anymore on John's site. Good luck to him but absolute fools buying at those prices. Money, sense comes to mind. Steve 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Frankie Crocker Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 If you’re a millionaire, then the price paid for J D Martin is pocket-change. Maybe some ultra-rich tycoon has stumbled upon a strain of music they quite like and fancy owning mint copies, money no object. No ordinary mortal could justify shelling out over a thousand quid for J D Martin. Someone in Hollywood or Silicon Valley is having a jolly fun time...

Rictic66 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 JM deserves great credit for his pioneering longstanding dealing and authorship. He gets top prices as he has many of the best records as well as a world wide distribution and strong sales PR comments. Doesn’t always work though and it is a very fair auction process imho.

I agree, have used him ourselves on dozens of occasions. And been very happy with the outcome. But the Jay D Martin dj, come on that was ridiculous.

I could certainly get Jay D Martin cheaper, just about anywhere. Have had numerous copies of it over the years, and Sam Dees too. This is not a criticism of John or his auction, have used him myself on dozens of occasions. Just think that price is bordering on insanity And I am not worrying, or even wrorrying.
