I've got access to several hundred 12", mostly from the years 1976 to 79...these are nothing to do with those I mentioned a while back. They area mix of UK and USA and I know someare rare but I can't find out prices. For example, theres a UK 12"issue of Miroslav Vitous NewYork City, I thought it only ever came out as a US promo, loadsof early Salsoul etc. So does anyone know how I should go about pricing these?

popsike is probably your best bet

I'd probably have a scan through Soul Brothers 12" catalogue which should give you some idea of most of the prices. Pull out any P&P 12"'s and any which were played up North back in the day (D.C. Larue, Esther Williams, Jobell etc) as they don't turn up that often and are now being discovered by younger DJ's.

Put them on eBay with the descriptions 'Rare Boogie' (That'll ensure the French buy them) or 'Larry Levan & Loft Classic'. Pretty much guarantees sales from my experience

Thanks Ian. I'm positive some of this stuff will be of interest to someone. If I had somewhere to store them I'd go get the lot, as it is I only took 30 to start...Parliament, le Pamplemousse, first Prince single, Jackie Moore, David Fathead Newman, Idris Muhammed, China Burton, Don Ray, Sun, GQ, Willie Hutch, Carolyn Crawford, Silvetti, Archie Bell, Dexter Wansell, Joneses...can't remember any more without looking..
