I leave the computer for one bloody hour and this happens...!!!

About 2 days left on these auctions now.

It sold for £959.

It's a bit naughty, but I guess you CAN choose not to pick up the package from the post office when it arrives (and refuse to sign the delivery papers). That way the seller doesn't have a proof of delivery, and you can claim your money back from PayPal. The package will eventually be returned to the sender.

Yes, they have started to charge you if you are a frequent user of their site. It's about $20 per year or so and not much to quibble about. As boba says, you CAN delete your cookies etc. or go to https://www.hidemyass.com and hide your IP that way, but it's a major pain if you're using Popsike a lot and in the long run easily worth the money they're asking just to not have to think about it.

The "small title" issue copy above was actually booted from the UK copy (it has got the exact same information and typesetting): Then there's this alternative UK white demo!

Here's an original issue copy which I sold in November 2007 for $61 on eBay:

No, you are right. It's a very in-demand tune though, so I guess some people are willing to pay a lot for the blue label second issue copy as well.

Every now and then I put together an MP3-mix of sounds I like a lot at the moment and play at Club Function, a club night which I organize once per month together with my friends Helena, Jonte and Joppe in my hometown of Malmo, Sweden.

Flying arrow...

The copies credited to The Mosquitoes are bootlegs pressed in the 70s in Pittsburgh.

Only about 4 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-)

Has gone up a bit in price lately. Seems to sell for £30-£40 now. Money well spent in my opinion. Absolute monster 45!

No, sadly not. Superb tune!

About 2 days left on these auctions now.

As far as US stuff goes, there's: Chuck Edwards - Downtown Soulville / I Need You - PUNCH 11001 A couple of different label designs for that release:

I've also got a copy of this: Frank Beverly - If Thats What You wanted - Inferno(clear wax) - M- £20 SOLD SOLD SOLD If anyone needs it, let me know via PM.

Yes I did, but it was very scratchy and had lots of clicks. I still have one copy. It was a bit strange because it took me YEARS to find a 1932 copy and then all of a sudden about a year or so back there were 4-5 copies on eBay (all in quite poor condition) from different sellers in the space of 2 months. There hasn't been any more since then, I've looked. In my experience the 1932 issue is very rare. Despite what some people claim, I think the 1879 issue was the first issue. And it was later remixed and aimed at a slightly different market and bombing even worse than the first time around.

Then there's the (in my opinion far superior) Rare Pleasure version on both Cheri 7" and 12". I'm fairly sure that it was the Rare Pleasure version which was sampled for the house version a couple of years back.

Was "Where You Gonna Find Somebody Like Me" by The Imperials ever issued on a US 7" or is it only available on the UK Power Exchange 7"? I just dug it out here after not having heard it for years. I had completely forgotten what an absolutely superb tune it is!
