Is this a new format on the scene?
People were selling the top 500 in mp3 format on DVD/ usb sticks for 20 pounds. Drop these onto a playlist and hit random and you have your local soul club / pub northern night. No dj egos to feed , no expenses. Free night to the punters who most wont care about the format and just listen or dance to what they know so the floor will be busy

BBC2 Northern Soul Prom on Saturday 26th August
It was a great adaptation of classic northern tunes by the orchestra Well worth a watch, I hope the other songs that were edited out are shown one day or even released on DVD

When did it become about rarity?
It probably became about rarity when the older djs dreamed up ovo to protect themselves on the scene from other people playing the same records and getting bookings. If it was about the music 90 percent of sets could be played from mp3/cd hard drive and only the top collectors/ djs with the super rare acetate/ few known copies would need to be booked

Is this a bootleg
Maybe changed his mind, did not have the money or found another copy elsewhere and didnt want to admit it

Ebay prices - crashing - Sign of what's to come ??
And 10 quid records in the uk are now 14 pound with postage costs so unless you can bundle some you are 40 percent out of pocket when you order

Ebay prices - crashing - Sign of what's to come ??
People who bought high a few years ago may want / need to sell on now and the prices have dropped on lots of non demand things but they will hang on to their price as dont want to take a massive hit when they paid for hype demand above normal price

I meant why should the us seller let the buyer save the 20 % custom fee. They wont get any of it . The uk buyer can then resell it and make an extra 20% plus his profit

But why should the seller do this? It saves the buyer 20 percent but if the buyer is flipping it then he makes the extra back for doing nothing.

Grayson Perry’s The Full English C4 (inc Northern Soul Segment ) Ep3 Thur 9th Feb 9-10pm
But where would you draw the line if you made one now? No mention of top 500,oldies nights, wigan etc. No featuring of the djs that hang on in the scene playing the same records from 40 years ago from 5 quid bootleg. Whatever you covered people who are into the other parts would say its rubbish. Would you cover r&b , soulful house, 40 year old modern or crossover? Would it mention cds, mp3s

Barbara McNair Canadian motown
I've seen a couple of them but they seem to price a little more than the usa version but a lot less than the uk release. I'd say the £350 is high though

wicked lester
Paying that for a carver is daft but paying 150 to get an original is also bad.
-

The ones on windy c can be picked up for under 20 pounds, some under 10. All worth having

Hole off-centre
Make a cardboard centre to fit in the record then make a hole to line up the record where you want it to be so it plays ok

Latest 100 club anniversary single
The five copies made £1006 combined so that would give an idea of the price for this

Records for auction
With manships auction you pay one increase above the price it is when you bid. Eg if its 100 and increasements are 10 pounds. You bid 160 you are the highest bidder at 110, if someone bids 120 then you are highest bid at 130 . If someone bids 170 you are out
