Anyone got a full mp3 of this please, I'd be greatful.

I'm not saying that it's the rarest record ever, but it sure isn't easy to find either.

I think it is probably quite rare, but just how rare has yet to be determined. Just because you simply can not find any copies anywhere does not necessarily mean it is very rare (although it obviously suggests it is not very common ), it might often mean that it is sort of rare but since very few know it and want it there is very little demand for it and not much point for dealers to stock up on it, if there is any stock out there that is. Certain supposedly cheap records are almost impossible to find, I know I have been serching for some titles for years, but still no records. Remember how certain records that are now pretty common used to be practically impossible to get? Even if you waved money around and offered to pay a lot more than the going rate there simply were no copies for sale, for years, and then something happened and they can now be bought literally every second week or so. Whatever the case and whatever you think of the tune I think we might be observing something of a fad or trend emerging, and not just this one record either. I'm glad it is a pretty good fad.

While we are at it, anyone having the other finishing prices of today especially "Save The Youth" (seeing Angela Davis I bet this went for 2500 UKP ?)

Mellow Madness on Mega ended at the neat sum of £3214...

I agree.

Mellow Madness went for £3214. Quite amusing seeing as the same copy was offered on here for £2500 or nearest offers a month or so back

Makes you really laugh...indeed. Great tune though. Wish I would have bought it when on ebay at buy it now 3000 USD.... But I am sure more copies will be available soon...

Most tunes can be bought cheap if they are unknown or .....

That copy in the "Berlin Record Shop" (as it is called nowadays) belonged to Berlin Funk DJ Soulpusher who now resides in Africa. There was (at least) one more copy on ebay. This one ended early without any bids...its up to anyones guess what happened with it. Wouldn`t be too surprised if it ended up in a well known recent auction.. When Arthur told me about this his "find" I also started looking for the record and found only one. But I agree with CH, this tells you nothing about the rareness of said record. I am somehow sure now that it reached so much in the current auction there will be "some" more copies getting advertised...be it on ebay, under the table or where have you.

"6,5%"?

No, £3g. All in.

"6,5%"?.

6,5 % off 3214 (JM`s auction price) equals 3g. All in or out doesn`t matter in that case

I would sell my copy for £3000, M-

If anyone knows the second highest bidder, or is the second highest bidder let me know, and it's yours.

Thanks

Hey , is it not on Soul Sams wants now ? He may have trades too

I didn't exactly start a thread about how fantastic and rare it must be. I simply asked about it after someone had already asked about the mp3 and then others started praising it and talking about Manship's copy. After that I gave up.

Maybe I didn't show as much interest because I wasn't buying records then (had to support you amongst other things ), but I did show some interest! You could've played it after I started buying records, hmpf. My language is minded.

Helena, Christian - I feel a re-union between you is growing close!

I wonder how much Veda Brown on Rav would go for now ..

easily the rarest on the rav label and best by miles...with you on that one simon..noticed mr S g has played it recently too...we all got excellent taste

i have an angela davis if someone wants to make me a nice offer

interesting that mello madness didnt got on here ...still a very nice result for whoever sold it its value is certainly reduced imo by the cracking reissue and edit by mr dope..pumps it right up..i know prefer it to the original mix....must get my asymmetrical bob sorted out!

just a frisebee, now

not wanting to sound un-natural about this offer but

something impulsive perhaps

JM charges 15% on auction so it would be more suitable to offer a greater discount as the owner would only get 3214 minus his/her 15% jm cut
