Raresoul45s Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Whats with the references to John and holy grail all over the descriptions, is it a private joke. I was gonna post this last night but thought maybe its obvious and I'm missing somthing but its bugging me now, I could only think hes taking the pee out of Jm who always ramps it up on his auctions. I dont know Maybe I aint got enough to do?
Jaco Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Me too, I don't have a clue what it's about unless it is in reference to JM. Does JM always refer to stuff as the "holy grail"? I hadn't noticed

I dont know Maybe I aint got enough to do? I never gave consideration to the possibility it may be a bit of 'friendly' !??! banter aimed at Mr Manship... I though it was in reference to an american term for 'punters' (normally associated with ladies of the night) being referred to as 'John's' - as for the 'Holy Grail' bit... who knows !!

Souljazera Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 DEALER RIVALRY JUST NEED SOME WHISKY REFERENCES NOW!!!
Cheapsiderecords Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 To be honest, I find it a little bit sad that a major dealer is reduced to this sort of cheap publicity.
Gasher Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 he is always having a pop a Mannie for selling other stuff at auction apart from records..programs poster car reg plates etc Its not the first time and wont be the last but Mannie is bigger than that. He doesnt need to try to belittle other dealers when He is the TOP man for rare records Brownies little green eyed monster ..maybe? gasher
Raresoul45s Posted March 7, 2008 Author Posted March 7, 2008 To be honest, I find it a little bit sad that a major dealer is reduced to this sort of cheap publicity. Just for the record Im not Tim Brown. An like a few others have mentioned its all just a bit of fun, lets keep it in perspective here, both the guys mentioned deserve full respect for there knowledge and integrity. We all know whats holy grail and whats not, an whats rare and whats common so wheres the harm. We all buy records because we like them not because of what somone's written about them. John's write ups on his website are always interesting and a source of finding out a little more info about a artist or a tune. Keep it up guys, its just funny nothing more nothing less. By the way anyone got the reason yet as we're all just speculating.

Good point I thought it was about JM Gotta be honest, "The Holy Grail" quote does seem to surface a lot But as stated, would never really influence anybody, at least I think not And on that note, I am now off for the "Holy Grail" of bacon & egg butties See, you all know what it means, dont you Edited March 7, 2008 by moggy
