they've been floating around the £250 mark on here for a while - although one did go for $135 in strong vg/vg+ not long back

I had a mint one on my site for ages for 175, eventually sold it for 165. A mint one went through ebay UK last week (or so) for 160. So I reckon 150 to 200 for a minter, I know it isn't very rare but it is always in demand.

There are quite a few go through ebay US but they are nearly always battered, strange thing is that they nearly always get bid up well over 100 quid

Just my opinion

I thought it couldn't be that rare as everbody plays it, and quite rightly too - superb track.

Not a bad one to get stuck in your head, I have that fookin HSBC - Washing machine advert "eena meena deeka" doing the rounds in my gulliver!

eenaa meenaa deekaa, daai, daamonikaa

maakaa naakaa naakaa, cheekaa peekaa reekaa

Only end of last year they were regularly going through ebay for a oner

Don't care how much this is played or how sick and tired everyone is of it...classic and timeless record which brings a lump to my throat every time I hear it

Great thing about this music, is different tastes, never really cut it for me, don't think it's a bad track (far from it) but when i hear it i'm heading for the bar.

at last ! someone who agrees with me about this tune.....yes its a good song etc but its played EVERY WHERE I GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!....and the best thing about it for me is it gives me a chance to rest my achey legs...

this kinda overlaps with the cheap/expensive thread.....£200 when every nite plays it and it comes up for sale on e bay at least once a month....but what more/zz hill you hardly ever see for sale or hear out but has been in the wanted section on here at least 3 times this month and it only books for £10 !!!...although someone on here offered me one at 40 ...then i got one for 15...

anyway rant over im off for my tea

Judging by the quantity that gets sold on a regular basis this record should never have a three figure price. I reckon £40/£50 would be a fairer price, especially in vg+ condition. £250 is a joke IMHO! I see records for £50 or so that you don't see no where near as often as Ruby Andrews. Yes it's a good record, excellent record in fact but its also everything thats bad about the scene and the dj's with a sheep mentality.

Me too... and all credit to Dave Godin, who was the first person to big this one up, way back in 1974!

(Thanks again Dave!)

Couldn't agree more Chalky, love it to bits but it's the sheep mentality that drives the prices up, dare I mention Joi Cardwell at this point?

Bless Dave Godin for making sure we all knew about it around 30 years ago though!

best,

i paid £40 for a minter in 1990.

sold it & got a vg copy back last year off ebay for $30,cleaned it up plays ok.

was a big want for me in 1990.

couldnt wait to hear her sing it @ fleetwood,wasnt worth the wait.

my m8 was @ that chicago trip last week & loved all the artists,but wasnt impressed with ruby singing.

love a few of her tunes tho,merry go round is brill.

Without doubt a top ten sound for me.

Bloody surprised it goes for that tho'. A 1988 Anglo Am purchase for 30. The one and only time I was in the right place at the right time.

Totally agree, superb track but definately not rare and definately shouldn't be £250...

I agree Beeks! Although it's classic and timeless I'm one of the "sick and tired of hearing it" brigade

(Don't tell the missus though it's just about her favourite record of all time )

No way it should ever be a £250 record, though suppose supply and demand dictates going rate, as it's not a very hard one to find.

I know what your saying, I was at the same do and Marvin Smith stole the show In thought she was a little flat and she did a short version, whereas Marvin was brill and Im into 70s so I expected more.

I thought she was poor. I saw her when she came over in the 90's, she wasn't that good then so guess I wasn't expecting too much from her second time around.

You could buy Hull for a grand back then
